General context: Medina in Ramadan
During Ramadan, Medina holds a special place in the hearts of Muslims, with the number of visitors increasing dramatically as they seek to spend their time in the Prophet's Mosque. This massive influx places a tremendous responsibility on security and service authorities to organize and manage the crowds, ensure their safety, and facilitate their access to the mosque so they can perform their religious duties with ease and tranquility. A comprehensive system of security, traffic, and service plans is in place to guarantee the highest quality services for the pilgrims, reflecting the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's historical legacy of serving the Two Holy Mosques.
The importance of the security role and its impact
The Deputy Governor's participation in the Iftar meal with security personnel is not merely a symbolic gesture, but carries profound implications both locally and internationally. Locally, this initiative boosts the morale of the security forces, assuring them that their efforts and sacrifices are appreciated and directly valued by the leadership, thus motivating them to give even more. Internationally, it sends a clear message to the Islamic world that the Kingdom, under its wise leadership, places the service and security of visitors to the Two Holy Mosques at the forefront of its priorities, dedicating all its human and material resources to achieving this noble goal, thereby reinforcing the Kingdom's position as a leader of the Islamic world and a guardian of its holy sites.
His Highness Prince Saud bin Khalid affirmed that the care and attention that the Prophet’s Mosque receives from the wise leadership - may God support them - reflects their keenness to harness all capabilities to serve the guests of God and provide them with the best services during this holy month, praising the high readiness and outstanding performance shown by the security men in carrying out their duties with all sincerity and responsibility.
