Passengers have faced troubles in boarding and luggage counters at Lahore airport after the aviation authority scheduled 13 flights in one hour. The passengers of 13 flights flocked to Lahore airport at a time as more than 3,000 travelers were currently present inside the airport. The M-3 motorway from Faizpur to Samundari was closed by the police.
Two new digital museums have opened in Mecca’s Haram Sharif, showcasing the life of Prophet Muhammad and the history of the Kaaba.
The Biography Museum, located in the Zamzam Tower, uses LED and hologram technology to present key aspects of the Prophet’s life, including his family, migration, teachings, and personal items. A model of his three-step sermon platform and city models of Mecca and Medina are also featured.
The second museum, near the Damascus Gate, focuses on the Kaaba. It displays parts of the Kiswah (Kaaba cover), perfume bottles, and tools used in its production. Digital screens offer historical information. Staff are available to answer visitors’ questions. Entry is free.
The Mecca Haram Region Promotion Authority is working to promote the museums to pilgrims and international media.
