The imams of Makkah are chosen and delegated by an illustrious pronouncement by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques (King) of Saudi Arabia. There are generally a few imams on record, as they share obligations during different occasions of day and year, and fill in for each other in the event that at least one is missing. The imams of Makka are commonly very knowledgeable, multilingual, amiable, and have recently filled in as imams of other driving mosques in Saudi Arabia before accepting their arrangements to Makka.
Here are some of the leading Imams of Mecca.
- Sheikh Abdulla Awad Al-Jahny. Imam of the Grand Holy Mosque since 2008.
- Sheikh Bandar Bleela. Appointed to the Grande Holy Mosque in 2013.
- Sheikh Maher Bin Hamad Al-Mueaqley. Well respected scholar.
- Sheikh Abdel Al-Kalbani. The first black imam of the Grand Mosque, he is renowned for his beautiful voice.
- Sheikh Usama Abdulziz Al-Khayyat. An imam of the Grand Mosque since 1997, and also a member of the Saudi parliament.
- Sheikh Dr. Faisal Jameel Ghazzawi.
Muslims from all over the world want to meet these Imams of the Holy mosque, but only those people can attend the Imam, which are in Makkah because Imam rarely visits any other country. So Muslims from the United Arab Emirates get Umrah Packages from Dubai and take an Umrah package by Air from Dubai and go to Makkah, where they perform their umrah pilgrimage and meet the Imam of Holy Mosque. They can also discuss their ethical problems with the Imam.
