the big clock tower at mekah

is it really necessary to spend all those moolah, only to build the biggest and baddest clock tower,

and of all places, at Makkatul Mukarramah?

people flock into Makkah because we want to be closer to God, as we are in the Tanah Haram, in the holiest place in Islam. the place where Hajar did the first Sa'ie between Safa and Marwah.
the place that Prophet Muhammad S.A.W liberated from the musyrikin by destroying the statues of false idols in the vicinity of Masjidil Haram.

when the money can be used to liberate the 3rd holiest place, Masjidil-Aqsa from the Zionist...
what a waste...
