Islamic Affairs Advises Rationalizing Electricity and Water Use in Mosques
The Ministry of Islamic Affairs focused on rationalizing the consumption of electricity and water in mosques during the summer season, aiming to preserve resources and achieve the principles of Islamic Shariah regarding avoiding excess. The measures included utilizing natural and energy-efficient lighting, activating light sensors, turning off or replacing water heaters with solar-powered alternatives, setting air conditioning units to 22°C and operating them only when needed, and shutting them off in unused areas. It also recommended regular maintenance of air conditioning systems, directing prayers towards the back in low-traffic areas, reducing exterior lighting of mosques after prayers, installing automated control systems for outdoor lighting, and attaching water flow restrictors on wudu sinks— all with the goal of effectively reducing energy and water consumption.
