Saudi IM rejects to reopen closed Shia mosques
By: Abdulali
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia: Saudi minister for interior affairs
Prince Naif bin Abdulaziz refused to re-open the closed Shia mosques
in the oil-rich Mominin-dominated Eastern Province for undisclosed
security reasons, according to Rasid News.
According to sources from Najran an Ismaili delegation, comprised of
deputy chief of Ismaili sect Shaikh Ahmed Al-Jamaly, the son of the
Ismaili sect Hussain Al-Makrami and other Ismaili tribes Shaikhs, met
the Prince in his office last weekend where he informed them that
re-opening the closed mosques is non-negotiable.
The prince also highlighted that closure of Ismaili mosques has ties
with security and sectarian matters and other sects.
The Prince further added that Eastern Province has many mosques for
various sects and are attended by foreign visitors which may lead to
things not known to many.
This is the first announcement from highly ranked Saudi official
talking about the closed Shia mosques.

get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
