The Ministry of Islamic Affairs is set to allow mosques to hold Tarawih prayers during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, in light of a drop in Covid-19 case.

A source within the Ministry told Hespress “if there is no objection preventing the evening prayer in Ramadan, the Tarawih year will be held normally.”

Covid-19 cases have dropped significantly in Morocco, recording an average of 100 daily cases.

Morocco continues to bid on its national vaccination campaign, in an effort to contain the spread of the coronavirus.

According to the ministry’s latest tally, 24,755,877 people received their first Covid-19 vaccine shot, while 23,210,400 were fully inoculated.

Morocco has also administered a total of 5,825,934 booster shots, as of Friday.
