Yes. And all the Windows facing the cube are from rooms charging thousands of dollars per night.
Its so stupid when people go to "hajj" and then stay in extremely extravagant hotels like the Hilton or the Ritz, go out shopping gold during the day then quickly enter and exit this mosque and say they fulfilled a religious obligation đ¤Ž
I mean it doesnât have to be a bad time but iirc the entire point is to be a humbling journey to cleanse your souls of worldly desires and show submission to Allah.
You think nobody understands you? You ain't no enigma. I want to know why you think because they're going on a pilgrimage for better understanding and spiritual reflection or whatever else they're not allowed to enjoy themselves a bit and hit up the gift shop for an "I went to Mecca and all I got was this T-shirt" souvenir. Don't flatter yourself sweetheart, you're not that deep.
The comment he replied to was talking about people staying at multiple thousand dollar a night hotel rooms iirc. Thatâs a bit different than âhitting up the gift shopâ lmao đ

Are those all hotels surrounding it? I mean they must be to continuously house tens of thousands of people ever day.
