The Presidency of Religious Affairs is currently studying the possibility of increasing the number of translations into other international languages in line with the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 and weighing the benefits of extending it to accommodate the millions of Umrah performers, tourists, and pilgrims.
Those interested in hearing the Friday sermon translated can be accessed through the “Manarat Al-Haramain” platform or FM radio frequencies at the same time as the Friday sermon in the Grand Mosque and the Prophet’s Mosque.
