How do they prove your not a Muslim?

And what is Jews, or Christians decided no non-Jews or non-Christians aloud in there holiest places?

You would call it rascism, the evils of zionism ect...

Why are non-Muslims not aloud in Mecca? And how can you justify this?

Are non-Muslims not worthy, or less holy to you all?

Why non-Muslims want to come to Mecca, I meant for Muslims it's 100% using their time doing religious deeds. But for Non Muslims it would be a boring place to be.... No music, no entertainment, crowded....
 
That is important how would they know?, someone told me that is why you have to tell your officials in your country that you are muslim and will be going there, so they can check, is this true?
 
Odd, When I was non-Muslim I visited both Makkah and Medinah. Just could not get close to theQqibla. I was not aware of any restrictions except for during the Hajj.

So it would be justified to make Jerusalem a Jewish only city?

Are non-Muslims not good enough to enter?
 
Lavikor, Woodrow just states non muslims are alowed in mecca and medinah, because he went before he was Muslim,just not to the one holy area during hajj, whats your beef now?

I just think it would be interesting to see it.

Would you be angry if Jews declared Muslims are not aloud one day a year at the Western Wall or another holy site... because you are Muslim.

I dont know about the whole city of Mecca (need someone with good knowledge on this.)

But when it comes to Grand Mosque.... We Muslims gave priority to Muslims in our House of worship.

I've learnt that if a Non Muslim want to observe Muslim prayer, he cant be in front or in the middle of the congregation, he must be like in the farthest place in the mosque, bcause a Muslim got priority in mosque, because he want to worship not to observe.

Imagine, with millions of worshippers in Great mosque, should a Non Muslim be given priority to be inside the mosque just to observe, while a Muslim who want to worship had to do it outside the mosque?

I just did some quick checking and found out that it was forbidden for me to have been in there. This was back in the 1960's. It was fairly common for Arab guides to bring Western Tourists for a viewof Mecca and Medina at that time. I just found this quote from a Saudi guide. I won't post the link to the site. But, this seems to have been common in the 1960's.

Even today, there are ways around the barrier. Occasionally nonbelievers will surreptiously enter the city in the company of Muslim friends. One Muslim confides: "I have some Christian friends who have visited Mecca in the last few years--also a Jewish friend."

But if Lavikor want to visit Mecca and Medina, he had to use non-Israeli passport... I think..
 
Hi,

According to Islam, it is forbidden that non Muslims enter Makkah. For the purpose of business, they can be let into Madeenah, and as soon as their business is done, they are to leave. Otherwise, these are places of religious significance. They are not tourist spots, where people ooh and ahh over the Kabah or the Prophets (Salallahu Alayhi Wasallam) Dome. :)

Going to the Jewish and Christian places of worship would be purposeless for us. And if according to their scriptures it is forbidden for non Jews or non Christians to enter, I'd respect that.
