During his visit to the Madinah region, Sheikh Dr. Abdul Latif bin Abdulaziz Al-Sheikh, the Kingdom’s Islamic Affairs, Call and Guidance minister, inaugurated several mosque maintenance projects, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Thursday.
These projects cover 800 mosques and prayer halls, costing SR61 million ($16 million), which will raise the coverage in the region to 91 percent.
There are five main maintenance and cleaning operations, encompassing several prominent landmarks, including the Sayyid Al-Shuhada, Qiblatain, and Al-Khandaq mosques, and others in AlUla, Al-Ais and Yanbu.
