ARAU, Aug 23 -- Twelve mosques in the state constituencies of Sanglang, Simpang Empat and Guar Sanji are reopen today.
The Raja Muda of Perlis, Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra Jamalullail said the reopening of the mosques would enable the people to perform congregational prayers and other religious activities include talks from Zohor prayers today.
“The people are reminded to fully comply with the health and safety standard operating procedures (SOP) as we are on the alert because the outbreak (COVID-19) is still with us,” said the Raja Muda in a statement today.
