According to the commanders of the Hajj security forces, the worlds largest folding umbrellas will be installed at the Grand Mosque’s courtyards and roof next year. This in a bid to shade pilgrims from the desert heat.

According to Arab News, the umbrellas will cover 53×53 meters. The report adds that the commander of the forces responsible for security at the Haram of Makkah, Maj. Gen. Mohammed Al-Ahmadi, said that while temperatures are low inside the mosque due to air conditioning, the umbrellas will provide comfort for pilgrims in the courtyards and on the roof.
