The Minister of Interior, Mazen Al-Faraya, decided to close all liquor stores starting Wednesday 9pm until 6am on Saturday, on the occasion of Isra' and Mi'raj.
The Isra' and Miʿraj are the two parts of a Night Journey that, according to Islam, the Islamic prophet Muhammad took during a single night around the year 621. Within Islam it signifies both a physical and spiritual journey.
Isra' and Mi'raj falls on March 11, 2021.
