Archeologists are studying the ruins of a buried Christian empire in the highlands of Yemen. The sites have sparked a number of questions about the early history of Islam. Was there once a church in Mecca?

Anybody else know about this?

I didn't hear about this, but I would've suspected something of the sort. Ethiopia was Christian back then and definitely had influence in Yemen and perhaps other parts of the Arabian Peninsula.

Before the coming of Islam, Arabia had Jewish and Christian tribes in addition to the worship of traditional Arab deities.

Thankfully Allah was able to put an end to that.


I've never heard of this, it must've been a very a longtime ago.

I'm aware there were Jewish and obviously non Muslim Arab tribes...

Everybody knows that, but the article goes deeper.

Thankfully they were guided to the right path. There are still large communities of Christians and Jews in the middle east (lebanon, Syria, Egypt, etc...)
