Congregational prayer gatherings at mosques in Turkey will be partially allowed by May 29 amid coronavirus pandemic
Congregational prayer gatherings in Turkey will be partially allowed starting May 29, the country's Interior Ministry said in a statement on Friday.
The prayers will be kept short and no preaching will be allowed, while imams will need to strictly follow the khutbah, or sermons, recited prior to the collective prayer. The materials considered to raise the risk of the virus' spread — such as prayer beads, reading desks and shoehorns — will not be allowed in mosques.More attention will be paid than ever to the daily cleaning of the mosques and prayer rooms.
