The iconic landmark, located near the Grand Mosque, is glowing in green as Muslims around the world welcome the new Islamic month. The sight has drawn attention for its spiritual significance and has become a meaningful part of the month’s beginning.

The green illumination of the clock tower adds to the peaceful atmosphere surrounding the Grand Mosque and offers a striking visual reminder of the significance of the occasion.
For Muslims across different countries, the start of Rabi Al-Awwal is a time to strengthen their connection with faith and remember the values of peace, kindness, compassion and unity taught by the Holy Prophet (PBUH).
The illuminated landmark in Makkah has therefore become a notable sight as communities around the world begin the blessed month with prayers and remembrance.
