First church in Qatar since coming of Islam
First church in Qatar since coming of Islam
Opponents of the church quote a tradition attributed to the Prophet
Mohammed which reads: “There shall be no two religions in the Arabian peninsula.” Alluding to this Tradition, articles have appeared in the local press bearing titles such as “No cross shall be raised under the sky of Qatar and no church-bell shall ring!”
I wonder what the Islamic ruling on this is?
Interesting…
From what I’m given to understand (which is pitifully little), is that as long as they are people of the book, they can freely practice their religion under Islamic Shari’a. However, my concern would be regarding how far all these people have strayed from their respective books.
