The Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah has welcomed over 20 million visitors during the first 20 days of the holy month of Ramadan, as worshippers flocked to the second-holiest site in Islam after undertaking Umrah in Makkah. This number represents a significant uptick in visitors, as is expected during Ramadan, with 280 million Muslims visiting the mosque throughout 2023.
