Cleanliness

Don’t eat inside the mosque

Dates and Zamzam only — meals outside.

Pourquoi c’est important

Food on the carpets attracts insects and stains the place where millions prostrate. In Ramadan iftar is served only in marked areas.

À faire

  • Eat in the courtyards or at the hotel
  • Use the iftar zones in Ramadan
  • Clean up crumbs around you

À éviter

  • Meals on the carpets
  • Seeds, gum or drinks other than water and Zamzam

Que faire

  1. Finish food before entering
  2. Throw packaging in the bins
  3. Report spills to the cleaners
