Did you know that even while Christians exist in Saudi Arabia, they face unique restrictions on their freedom of religion?
Since Christianity has such a large following, have you ever wondered if there might be a nation without a single church? We live in a world with over 190 independent nations. Could there be a nation where there isn’t a single church? Actually, there is. It’s the Middle Eastern nation of Saudi Arabia.
With an approximate land size of 2,150,000 square kilometres, Saudi Arabia is both the largest state in Western Asia and the second-largest among the Arab countries, behind only Algeria.
The people of the country, who identify as Muslims, follow the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad just as Christians follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. Of Nazareth, Mecca is the holiest site, and Muslims from all across the world travel there each year for the Hajj pilgrimage.
of its reliance on the lunar cycle, the Islamic calendar (sometimes called the Haji calendar or AH) is used to establish the exact date of Hajj.
The Hajj is performed annually over the course of ten days, beginning on the first day of the Islamic calendar’s twelfth and final month, Dhu al-Hijjah, and finishing on the tenth day of that same month.
For Muslims, Mecca holds a special significance as the place where the Prophet Muhammad was born.
Just to be clear, They don’t discriminate against Christians because there are over a million Roman Catholics living there.
This means Christians are welcome to apply, but only if they are motivated primarily by their desire for employment rather than their religious beliefs. Therefore, Christians in the country are restricted to private, at-home services.
Muslim Britons were livid when the government of Great Britain denied their request to build a megamosque in the city. It is predicted that the megamosque will be larger than many of Britain’s historic churches.
Living in a city with 300 mosques and 500 madrassahs, Councilor Craig proposes a moratorium on the construction of new mosques in Britain until Muslims there are willing to open their doors to Christian churches.
When asked why the Saudis should fund a mosque in the United Kingdom, Craig said, “Because there is not a single church, temple, goodwara, or synagogue in Saudi Arabia.”
