“The Presidency will provide ready-made food to the worshipers in the Masjid al-Haram, while Sehri will not be allowed in the Prophet’s Mosque. No one will be allowed to eat in the courtyards of both mosques and everyone will be provided food individually,” said Sheikh Abdul Rahman Al-Sudais, the head of affairs of the two mosques.

“People will only be allowed to bring dates and water for themselves and will not be allowed to share them with anyone,” he added.
