Saudi Arabia allowed non-Muslims to enter four mosques in Jeddah.
The main purpose of the move is to allow non-Muslims to get acquainted with the Islamic civilization, the New Indian Express reports.
Saudi Arabia banned non-Muslims from entering Mecca city, which is a sacred land for Muslims around the world. Although many Islamic countries have been allowing non-Muslims to visit mosques as tourist attractions for years, mosques in the Kingdom until now were off-limit to them.
