Answer 2

Since it's the Religion of Peace naturally he is welcomed with open arms, given a front row seat and treated like a long lost friend.

Answer 3

Answer 4

Does the word 'Jihad' mean anything to you?

Answer 5

Answer 6

any kind of corporal punishment and even capital punihsment is allowed for those pesky non muslims. probably depending upon how much trouble hte person is making.  

Answer 7

You cannot even get a plain ticket to Mecca for Hajj without being a Muslim so it ain't gonna happen.

Muslims in muslim countries need a special visa to go to Hajj and muslim in non muslim countries need to hand there passports in for over  to the Saudi Embassy for up to three weeks. So its not like you can just show up and try to enter Mecca lol.....

Going as a journalist makes no difference you cannot enter Mecca you could not perform Hajj and you would not be aloud in to see the Kaaba etc its not a tourist site, its a holy place.

There is no non muslim who can enter Mecca its as simple as that, not a journalist, president or queen.....

So your question is redundant nothing would happen no fine, no jail, no deportation sorry........

Answer 8

Imprisonment

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mecca

Non-Muslims are not permitted to enter Mecca by Saudi law.[40] According to CNN,[31]

Many religious scholars say this "discrimination" exists because Mecca was once a city where Muslims - including the prophet Mohammed - were persecuted and driven out. When Mohammed and his followers reclaimed the city, it was declared a sanctuary.



"Non-Muslim Bypass:" Non-Muslims are not permitted to enter Mecca.Those who use fake certificates of Muslim identity (to enter) may be arrested and prosecuted by Saudi authorities[41]

Answer 9

LIFE IS NOT ABOUT CHOICES AND WISHES,

we live as Submitters to the will of Allah swt / God Almighty

Hajj is as old as Abraham / Ibrahim ppuh:

Psalms 84:

4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house;

       they are ever praising you.

       Selah

5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you,

       who have set their hearts on pilgrimage.

6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca,

       they make it a place of springs;

       the autumn rains also cover it with pools.

to go there= you need to Submit / become Muslim
