Saudi Arabia Reaffirms Ban on the Building of Non-Muslim Places of Worship

April 25, 2013|3:31 pm

Bishops from several European countries are criticizing Saudi Minister of Justice, Mohamed el-Eissi, after he insisted that “the cradle of the Muslim sanctities will not allow the establishment of any other places of worship.”

The statement has reflected the Saudi government’s intention to resume its ban on the building of non-Muslim places of worship within Saudi territories, or even the observance of non-Islamic religious rituals.

The minister reaffirmed the commitment to the exclusion of other religions in the Arabian country during a meeting with a number of European parliamentarians and members of the Foreign Relations Committee this week.

“My country will not allow the establishment of places of worship for non-Muslims,” he said in response to a question raised by the parliamentarians on the matter.

  1. Yet we see these religious bigotries and monarchs are very close friends and allies of champions of human rights and pseudo democracy campaigners.

    I am fed-up with these religious and atheists extremists…….fed-up with their unashamed lies and double standards and consistent heinous crimes against humanity.

    They never deserved to lead humanity neither they can ever. As Allah has manifestly set the doctrine that only Mahdi and his followers will lead mankind and be their saviours.

  2. And the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is sponsoring ‘Inter-Religious Dialogue Centers’, such as the one recently opened in Vienna, Austria. The post should go under ‘Laughter is the best medcine…’

  3. “My country will not allow the establishment of places of worship for non-Muslims,” he said in response to a question raised by the parliamentarians on the matter.”

    On what ground did that minister ban to other faith people the worship of their God ? There is no knowledge with any one except what is taken from Imam Mahdi a.s. These Arabs and other non-Ahmadi Muslims do not know what they are doing. They do not understand the fundamentals of Islam.

    When Abraha (of Yemen), in 0570 A.D. tried to attack Makkah and took away many camel of hazrat Abdul Matlib, Abdul Matlib went to Abraha to claim his camels.

    Abraha was surprised. He said, “I have come to demolish (destroy) your Ka’abah (the most sacred shrine) and you only want your camels??

    Abdul Matlib said, “I need my camel. The owner of Ka’abah will look after His house Himself.”

    Abdul matlib did not say or do anything to show that he was the protector of Ka’abah. How come the king of Arabia has taken up a title for himself as the gardian of the two sacred shrines??? ( He also calls himself as the servant (Khaadim) of the two shrines. That is better.)

  4. It is a hilarious statement from a Justice Minister.
    How could He be the justice minister of Saudi Aabia without reading the Islamic law.
