Haram Mataaf is empty for cleaning| umrah is banned due to coronara virus threat |Makkah today

Haram Mataaf is empty for cleaning| umrah is banned due to coronara virus threat |Makkah today BREAKING: Saudi Arabia announces that the Grand Mosque in Makkah and the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah will be closed one hour after the Isha prayer and will reopen one hour before Fajr prayer over Coronavirus fears.



BREAKING NEWS | A number of historical protocols put in place tonight in the Haramain:


- The Mataf around the Ka’bah and the path between Safa and Marwah will be closed for the duration of the Umrah pilgrimage, and Salat will only be inside.

- Residents of Makkah will be allowed to enter Makkah and the area around the Haram.

- Not i'tikaaf and sleeping inside the Haram.

- Not allowing food and drinks in Haram.

- The Zamzam water dispensers will be closed.




Subhanallah, news of the Haram being closed are going viral and causing panic, with people even going as far as declaring it one of the signs of the final day!

Since I am here in Makkah, let me clarify facts from fiction so we could calm down:

- The tawaf area around the Kaabah was closed today. However, people were still doing tawaf outside in the covered area.

- The rest of the Masjid was open for the 5 prayers, and people were praying outside too.

- Starting tonight, 1 hour after Isha, the entire mosque will be closed for sanitization until 1 hour before Fajr when it will be reopened again. This is also happening in the Prophet's ﷺ mosque in Madinah!

- Zamzam water will also be shut down and sanitized. All the tabs and the containers.

- No corona cases reported from the Haram. This is just a precaution since tomorrow is Jumuah, the busiest time of the week.

- No one wearing Ihraam clothing will be allowed inside Makkah. If you come plain clothed however, you are allowed to come inside the city boundaries. You may or may not be stopped for questioning. Groups are not allowed under any circumstances.

Now, is this one of the signs of the day of judgement as some claim?

- Actually, Haram was closed over 40 times in history, due to fires, diseases, expansions, or wars, and we know them year by year, from 865 to 1987. Therefore it is not the first or only time. No reason to panic!

Alhamdulillah, we ask Allah to keep us and our families safe, and reward everyone who wanted to visit His house but couldn't. We also thank the authorities for protecting the visitors of Allah!

P.S I will still sit just outside the Masjid and make Dua prayer for everyone insha'Allah if you write it below. It is still part of the Haram and a blessed area. I'll keep you updated insha'Allah ❤
