On May 26, 2026, the esteemed King Mohammed VI of Morocco participated in the Eid Al-Adha prayer at the Mosque of Ahl Fes, located in the royal precinct of Rabat. This significant event was announced by the Ministry of Royal Palaces, Honors, and Decorations, highlighting the royal family’s commitment to religious traditions and celebrations.
