Riyadh: Sultan Al-Harthi, spokesperson for the National Center for Waste Management, confirmed that the Sustainable Ihram initiative has, over the past year, contributed to the production of more than 5,000 products made from recycled fabrics. The ihram garments in Islam symbolize equality and the transcendence of social class distinctions, as all men wear the same white garment. The color white also symbolizes purity, and adhering to its prohibitions represents self-discipline. Overall, ihram expresses unity and humility during the performance of the rituals.
