    Nope: this religion of "love and peace" totally excludes everybody that is not "muslimish" and considers as infidels everything that is not like them. PS: it is also quite impossible to even get a tourist visa for anywhere in Saudi Arabia: that's how they are so nice to the world. (Of course, who in his right mind would ever want to go there in the first place?

    It would be foolish to believe that the self-proclaimed guardians of Islam would allow 'kafirs' to enter the holy city of Mecca! In the 'situations vacant' ads in Indian newspapers stipulate that, if the positions are in Mecca, only Muslims need apply! It has nothing to do with 5 million or 10 million people visiting a day.

    Did you know that the King of Saudi Arabia has recently decreed that all ATHEISTS ARE TERRORISTS? By corollary, are terrorists who believe in God sane, normal people?

    its not the matter of being unclean.. we muslims know Allah created every single human on earth..

    Mecca used to allow everyone in the past..

    its just logistics..

    each year many million come, can you imagine a large city that has over a million already playing host to another 5 million people all coming in from around the world to a single city? wow!.. its a huge logistic nightmare for the Mecca municipality to handle.. ... all the extra housing, the food, the sanitation (garbage), the electricity, water, the emergency services.. just think about it.. .. Mecca hosts all this and still manages to keep the city sane without falling apart..

    there is no room for more to come.. why would a non muslim want to come for? to stare? Mecca and the religous rites of muslims are not tourist attractions, they are seriously devoted to God and doing this as a duty to God, they dont want extra people there who dont care, and just want to stand there staring and taking photos.. ... its respectful to leave them alone.. you can watch it on national geographic when it airs each year if you are curious..

    Mintee- maybe he wanted to experience spiritual awakening or healing. God is telling him to go there and experience it. maybe he become a muslim or accept Islam after his visit.

    yes, it is a form of discrimination.

    I knew a few muslim cousins who were circumcised a bit late. They were mocked at by fellow muslims for being unclean, being a non muslim. Their prayers are not accept by God, etc

    Muslims are the most racist people i have ever met. It is cold fact.
