in response to reader comment: Mecca the muslim equivalent of the jewish holy of holies

Dear brothers,

please dont take it offensive for non muslims entering the mecca madinah boundary of holy sites. it is to keep away from any confronttaions and problems. for example it is like amristar golden temple and many other temple display (non hindus not to come beyond this point). as a muslim we accept this cos when other than hindus dont know the value inside, may be behave disrespectful with the idols or worshippers. and another example not everyone can enter a military site only the military personnels can go. so please dont take this as an offensive as some people may exaggerate
