The Haramain Sharifain administration has announced that visitors can now offer Nawafil (optional prayers) in Riyaz ul Jannah throughout the year. 

According to the 24NewsHD TV channel, this is a departure from the earlier rule that allowed such prayers only once a year.

However, the requirement to obtain a permit via the Nusuk mobile application remains intact. 

According to the administration's social media channels, visitors can generate a new permit every 20 minutes using the Nusuk app.

This change will also benefit visitors already present in Masjid al-Nabawi, who can now conveniently schedule their prayer permits under the updated guidelines.
