A spot check by the Nation in Mombasa County, revealed that most mosques did not reopen, including Masjid Ummu Kulthum, Masjid Mbaruk and Masjid Konzi. AdvertisementAfter accessing the mosques, the faithful were required to have their masks on throughout the prayer session. In the mosques, the faithful were also required to stand 1.5 metre apart and were not allowed to exceed 100 in their congregational prayers. The cleric noted that it is not mandatory for the mosques to reopen under the new guidelines. “The mosque committee and the imam can regulate this as they understand their mosques better.”
