Sufi faithful performed zikr inside the war-damaged Sheikh GaribAllah Mosque in Omdurman, on the outskirts of the Sudanese capital, on Friday. The devotional practice involves ecstatic recitations of Allah's names, or passages of the Quran, accompanied by rhythmical breathing and physical movement.
The GharibAllah mosque has been open for over 100 years and has never stopped servicing the neighbourhood, except for two weeks in 2025. Heavy fighting in the area forced its brief closure for safety reasons, but it soon reopened to offer shelter for many in need.
