The Endowments Directorate in Raqqa has completed the restoration and rehabilitation work of the city’s Grand Mosque, to be reopened to worshipers coinciding with the last ten days of the holy month of Ramadan.
The restoration work carried out by the architectural workshops included maintaining the general structure of the mosque and preserving its historical character, as it was officially opened by performing the first Tarawih prayers there after the completion of the work.
