After significant pressure, particularly on social media, it is likely that the Algerian government will lift its “ban” on the Djamaa el Djazair mosque, also known as the Great Mosque of Algiers, allowing for the Tarawih and Friday prayers to be held there, starting from the last ten days of Ramadan.
Authorities had opened the large mosque in 2020, but weekly Friday prayers were held there only twice, unlike the five daily prayers, which have been observed every day.
