A groundbreaking proposal to introduce water-saving sensor taps in mosques, ma’atams (community halls) and Quran centres across Bahrain has been submitted by two top municipal leaders.
The initiative, jointly presented by Southern Municipal Council chairman Abdulla Abdullatif and Muharraq Municipal Council chairman Abdulaziz Al Naar, comes amid growing concerns over water conservation and sustainability.
The proposal, now set to be forwarded to Justice, Islamic Affairs and Endowments Minister Nawaf Al Maawda for review and possible implementation, is part of a wider push by municipal councils to promote eco-friendly infrastructure in public and religious facilities.
“We have noticed the enormous volume of water used daily in mosques and other religious venues, especially during ablution (wudu),” said Mr Abdullatif.
