At the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah, the prayer was led by Imam Sheikh Abdulbari Al-Thubaity in the presence of Prince Saud bin Khalid Al-Faisal, deputy governor of Madinah Region.

The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, had, on Monday, urged the people throughout the kingdom to perform the prayer on Thursday.
