This article provides the list of the imams of the Two Holy Mosques (Arabic: أئمة الحرمين, romanized: Aʾimmat al-Ḥaramayn). They are the prayer leaders appointed to serve at the Masjid al-Haram in Mecca and the Prophet's Mosque in Medina. They are tasked with leading daily prayers (Salah), Friday sermons, Tarawih, and other major religious observances. The imams are appointed by royal decree of the King of Saudi Arabia and serve as prayer leaders as well as Khatibs at the Two Holy Mosques. While their role is primarily religious and liturgical, some have also been noted for their Quran recitation, scholarly background, or wider public engagement through sermons broadcast from Mecca and Medina.
