Ternyata auloh itu mata duitan, hotel dan apartement di rumah auloh itu 
harganya selangit, atau mungkin lbh tepat disebut harganya sesorga, krn sorga 
itu kan lbh tinggi dr langit. Dan emang faktanya orang Islam yg di Mekah itu 
selalu merasa ada di sorga, jadi harga hotel segitu emang harga sesorga, bukan 
cuma selangit


Aneh ga yah, ranah suci rumah auloh yg dianggap sbg sorga itu ternyata cuma 
bukit batu kering gersang yg panasnya minta ampun di musim panas, tp bisa ada 
banjir yg nenggelamkan orang kalo ada hujan besar yg cuma 1x sethn. 


Knp auloh ga milih sorga yg lbh nikmat kayak pulau2 di daerah tropis misalnya?

Saudi- Pilgrims deem price increase of Makkah hotels 'unholy'   
MENAFN - Arab News -  09/08/2012  


(MENAFN - 
Arab News) With the last 10 days of Ramadan commencing today, hotels and 
furnished apartments near the Grand Mosque in Makkah are already fully 
booked, with a typical room offering a view of the Kabaa - the House of 
God - ranging anywhere between ten and SR 15,000 per night.

Pilgrims performing the "umrah" pilgrimage argue that the high prices 
make it possible for only the wealthy to stay near the Grand Mosque, 
creating a luxury market for accommodation therein.

"It is 
unfair and unholy that these rooms are not made affordable for all to 
enjoy," Majed Hamad told Arab News, adding that prices should be 
regulated because it is not acceptable to put a price on the "blessings 
of Ramadan." Some claim that it is not hotel owners who are to blame for
 the rise in price but pilgrims who are willing to pay such rates.

"I do not hold the view that it is entirely fault of hotel owners for 
the price increase because if members of the public refused to pay 
thousands of riyals per night for such accommodation, owners would be 
forced to reduce prices to turn a profit" Yahya Hindawiyah said. 

In
 other words, demand for such a service is largely elastic. Indeed, 
other pilgrims have said that they have already paid astronomical sums 
of money to stay near the Grand Mosque during Ramadan.

"We have 
been staying at a hotel not far from the Grand Mosque since Ramadan 
began and have spent nearly SR 200,000" a pilgrim from Riyadh wishing to
 remain anonymous said, stating that he has been planning the trip since
 last Ramadan by saving throughout the year in order to be able to enjoy
 the holy month of this year. 

Justifying the rise in prices, 
Saad Jameel Al-Qurashi, the chairman of the National Committee for Haj 
and Umrah said "Businessmen who have invested enormously into these 
properties are legitimately taking advantage of the peak Ramadan season 
in order to reap a return on their investment", stating that there is 
"nothing wrong with seasonal practice."
