It's not a sign or a sin. It's just a building.

Mecca – Jama’an Al Kenani
The high clock of Mecca in the sky of the Holy Mosque is a prominent landmark with its green color for every welcomed visitor of the Holy Mosque. The clock that is elected to be the biggest work internationally can be seen from all Mecca neighborhoods, which makes it a distinguished aesthetic addition to the landmarks of Mecca with what it resembles of accurate geometric design where a selection of local and international engineers participated in creating it.

In some Islamic occasions such as the arrival of Hejri months and Eids, 16 thousand special vertical light bundles get lighted to more than 10 kilometers into the sky, where the strength of each light bundle reaches ten kilowatts. The prayer calling of the Holy Mosque will be transmitted live from the tip of Mecca clock through special speakers that will allow hearing the prayer calling of the Holy Mosque from around seven kilometers distance.

During the prayer calling, the top of Mecca clock gets lighted by 21,000 light lamps of bright white and green colors that can be seen of a distance the reaches 30 kilometers from the tower, pointing the approach of prayer time. Those light pointers also allow the disabled people such as those with weak hearing or those that are far away from the Holy mosques to know the prayer timing. The front of the clock is white with black pointers at daytime and green with white pointers in nighttime.
