"textContent": "During Ramadan 1447 AH, Saudi Arabia served over 33.8 million iftar meals at the Grand Mosque in Makkah and the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah, underscoring its dedication to supporting millions of worshippers at Islam’s holiest sites.\n\nThe large-scale distribution was executed through a highly organised system managed by the General Authority for the Care of the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques, according to the Saudi Press Agency (SPA).\n\nThis ensured that fasting individuals received their meals efficiently while maintaining order within the mosques.\n\nSpecific areas were designated for iftar distribution, and strict health and safety measures were implemented to serve food hygienically without disrupting the movement of worshippers, particularly during peak hours. Special attention was given to the moments before Maghrib prayer, when crowds gather to break their fast.\n\nVolunteers and staff coordinated closely to manage the flow, ensuring timely and organised meal delivery despite the heavy rush.\n\nThe initiative reflects meticulous planning in crowd management, logistics, and public service. It also demonstrates Saudi Arabia’s commitment to enhancing the experience of pilgrims performing Umrah or visiting during Ramadan.\n\nThese services are part of the Kingdom’s broader Vision 2030 strategy, which focuses on improving public services, expanding religious tourism, and creating a safe, well-organised, and spiritually enriching environment for visitors from around the world.\n\nThe successful distribution of millions of iftar meals highlights both operational excellence and the Kingdom’s dedication to hospitality during the holy month.\n\nThe post Saudi serves 33.8mln Iftar meals at Holy mosques appeared first on HUM News.",
