MAKKAH: The General Authority for the Care of the Affairs of the Grand Mosque and the Prophet’s Mosque provided about 58,000 carpets for the Two Holy Mosques.
Of these, 39,400 carpets are placed in the Grand Mosque in Makkah, including within the Third Saudi Expansion, to ensure the comfort of worshippers.
Field teams continuously monitor the carpets’ readiness through regular cleaning, sanitizing and replacement.
They also redistribute the carpets to accommodate shifts in crowd density during prayer times and peak hours, particularly during the large influx of pilgrims in Ramadan.
The authority places particular emphasis on the quality of the carpets used. They are manufactured to high specifications to withstand intensive use while maximizing comfort for worshipers.
Strict safety standards, along with ease of cleaning and maintenance, are also prioritized.
These efforts are part of a comprehensive system of services provided by the general authority to create a comfortable and spiritually enriching environment for all visitors.
