"To resolve this issue and for the convenience of worshippers across the country, the Islamic Foundation called for offering the Zuma prayers simultaneously at 1.30pm in all mosques across the country," the notification said.

The directors and deputy directors of the Islamic Foundation have been asked to take necessary measures to ensure that Zuma prayers are held at 1.30pm in all mosques within their respective divisions or districts, it read.
