At the Kaaba, the faithful must circumambulate the black-draped edifice, counter-clockwise, while muttering the names of God, and fingering a set of prayer beads while counting numbers, dressed in a white bed-sheet and a turban on your head. There is a very strict dress codes in Mecca - and no Jews or white people are allowed inside the city limits of the town. > Would he be intolerant of their views? > If you cannot get to Mecca you must be facing Mecca five times every day, and then bowing, on your knees, toward the Kaaba, the sacred 'Quba' where God threw down a meteorite to impress the people.
