I would appreciate any kind of information regarding this church.

Thank you

In Jeddah, just off Medinah road on the way towards the souk, there are ruins of a very old church. I have pictures of it but unfortunately haven't managed to post them yet.

I am seeking for ANY kind of information regarding this church. If someone wats to see the church I can email some photos or else click on:

Contrary to popular belief, both Christianity and Judaism existed in the Arabia sub-continent prior to and after the spread of the message of Islam.

It is very possible that the location in Jeddah is indeed a church. There are still Jews for example living in Saudi Arabia, near to Yemen in the south.

The local authorities care little about the islamic historic sites, let alone a church would have survived. i highly doubt that there is any church.

Yes, it is true that many other religons existed (and possibly do exist) in this country. Contrary to islamic philosophy (as advocated by the Phrophet swt), it seems other religons are no longer permitted in this islamic country.
