Ghusl Kaaba Ceremony to Take Place on July 10, 2025

The Ghusl Kaaba (cleansing of the Holy Kaaba), take place on the 15th of Muharram, 1447 AH, which is expected to correspond to either Thursday, July 10 or Friday 2025, based on the citation of the moon.

This ritual sees senior officials, religious scholars, and dignitaries from across the Muslim world participate in washing the interior walls with a fragrant mixture of Zamzam water, rose water, and fine oud.

As per tradition, the ceremony is led under the guidance of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques or a representative, and it serves as both a physical and spiritual act of reverence and renewal for the structure toward which over a billion Muslims direct their daily prayers.

Hence, the Ghusl Kaaba will fall on July 10.

This ceremony typically occurs twice annually—once before Ramadan and again in the early days of Muharram, following Hajj.

Although only a select few are invited to witness it in person, the images and videos shared across the Muslim world turn this intimate act into a moment of shared spiritual connection.
