MAKKAH: A ceremonial washing (ghusal) of the Holy Kaaba was performed on Sunday.
The interior walls were cleansed with rose, ‘Aab-e-zam zam’ and musk perfumes using white cloth. Zamzam water mixed with rose perfume was splashed on the floor and then it was wiped with bare hands and palm leaves.
The washing ritual of the Kaaba begins with offering two raka’a of voluntary prayers inside the Kaaba.
