The decision has been taken to ease the Friday rush at mosques. "It will reduce congestion at mosques and make it easier for worshippers to offer the Friday prayers amid Covid-19," the Department of Islamic Affairs announced on social media.
The new decision is effective from Friday, March 26.
Mosques were first closed in March last year as a precautionary measure against the spread of Covid-19. They had reopened for the five daily prayers in July, but Friday prayers remained suspended. The Friday prayers resumed on December 4.
