The Hajar Aswad and Hajar Ismail, including the Kaaba building, are perfumed with a specific perfume after being sanitized 10 times a day by the body overseeing the affairs of the two holy shrines.
According to Arab media reports, Jaber Wadani, who is in charge of sanitation and maintenance of the designated area at the Institute of the Holy Mosque, said that 40 workers have been appointed for polishing and sanitizing the Black Stone and Maqam Ibrahim. Special lanterns on the wall of the 'Ka'bah Gate' and 'Hatim' are lit on a daily basis.
The silver frame around the stone is also polished with special polish while all the places are also cleaned with disinfectant.
