Despite Islam's position as a powerful religion, boasting one quarter of the world's population as its followers, many aspects of Muslim thought and belief remain an enigma to non-Muslims- until now. While the cities of Mecca and Medina are restricted to Muslims, and photographing the sites requires special- and rarely given - permission from the Saudi Arabian authorities, Mecca the Blessed, Medina the Radiant is an unprecedented exploration of Islam's most holy cities and the great pilgrimage, mostly presented in fullcolor, never-before-seen photographs.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 297.352 Na Checked In Add Copy to MyList
