Al Adl wal Ihsane movement criticized the continued closure of mosques despite the easing of lockdown measures in several parts of the Kindgom. The Justice and Development party for its part, seized the presidency of the Lower House to question Ahmed Taoufik on the measures undertaken to open mosques.
Moroccan Salafists Abou Naim, Hassan El Kettani and Omar Haddouchi are opposed to a call for the closure of mosques as a preventive measure against the spread of the novel coronavirus. The potential decision comes after the release of several fatwas, including that of the High Council of Ulemas in Morocco.
