The Saudi Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Dawah, and Guidance on Saturday temporarily shut down seven mosques in five regions after a number of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) cases were confirmed among worshippers. Virus cases have led to 326 mosques being forced to temporarily close over the past 41 days, with 311 reopening after sanitization measures were completed. The ministry said that three of the mosques were in Riyadh, and one in each of the regions of Eastern Province, the Northern Borders, Najran, and Asir.
