Dubai: Sermons and religious lessons from the Grand Mosque in Mecca are now being translated into 11 languages, to make Islamic teachings more accessible to worshippers around the world, the General Authority for the Care of the Two Holy Mosques said.
The multilingual broadcasts, available through the Manarat Al Haramain digital platform, cover high-profile sermons including Friday and Eid prayers, as well as religious addresses delivered during Arafat, eclipses, and rain-seeking prayers.

The authority said the service aims to remove language barriers for non-Arabic speakers, who make up a significant portion of the millions who tune in virtually or attend the mosque in person during Ramadan, Hajj, and other religious occasions.
The initiative also extends beyond sermons. Interpretations are offered for religious lectures by senior scholars, Ramadan and Hajj enrichment programs, and conferences and seminars hosted within the mosque’s premises.
