Is Mecca Like Scarborough?


Scarborough is a seaside town in North Yorkshire

Of course. Exactly the same.

The same sea. The same dress. The same slavery.

The same language. The same wealth.

If you closed your eyes you wouldn't know whether you were in England or in Saudi Arabia.


.

umm... yeah practically the same.

NO not at all

Yes. The only difference is Scarborough has one of the Bronte sisters buried in one of its church graveyards. And of course, Mecca is where the famous ballrooms originated from.

No, Bradford is more like Mecca.

Mecca means "A place that is regarded as the center of an activity or interest" or "A goal to which adherents of a religious faith or practice fervently aspire."

The city is revered by Muslims for containing the holiest site of Islam, the Sacred Mosque of Mecca. A pilgrimage to Mecca during the week of the Hajj is one of the Pillars of Islam, a sacred duty that is required of all able-bodied Muslims who can afford to go, at least once in their lifetime. People of other faiths are forbidden from entering the city.

i don't know what Scarborough is other then someones last name. u can compare it to Jerusalem for Jews or Vatican city for catholics. expect all Muslims who can afford the trip r required to go there.

Surely there is a Mecca bingo in Scarborough somewhere.

no.

No it isn't. To start with, there is no black stone in Scarborough, the only black things are turds floating in the sea, it is very disappointing.
Mecca is a holly site for at least a good billion of people so although I'm not muslim, I do have respect for that.
The temperature is better in Scarborough though in my opinion because I don't like it when it's too hot ;-)
