Volunteers for Cleanup

Each year, thousands of people volunteer in Ramadan to keep Al-Aqsa Mosque clean. They spread all over the squares and prayer halls. They clean the grounds to carpet them with mats and carpets in the shades of trees. Also, tree trunks are greased out and prayer halls, squares, and all the premises are cleaned up.
