Only reason some people without a reason favors Saudi Arabia is because of Makka and Madina, some people thinks its something "divine", thats especially applies to Muslim regions far from Middle East or holy lands, they have no idea about the real situation, in their eyes Saudi Arabia is all about Holy Lands and Islam. So I wouldn't call it a real influence of Abdush or something. His influence is mostly limited by several of the Arab states.

With all due respect then you are saying that Newsweek, Forbes and several other well-known and well-recognized organizations and analysts (just make a quick google search on the topic) are less knowledgeable then you. KSA's religious clout is without competition. This creates a lot of influence and obviously Muslims across the world will always worry about the state of Makkah and Madinah just like we worry about Al-Quds.

Yet your little theory makes close to no sense as KSA is the most popular Muslim country according to most polls. So It's not "a few people". The reasons for that are not important here. They can always be discussed.

I am sure that the billions of dollars KSA have donated in humanitarian aid to Muslims and non-Muslims across the world is highly appreciated. KSA is one of the biggest donors in human history which I think is very admirable thing.

Lastly KSA sponsors thousands of mosques economically, Islamic centers across the world and helps make Dawah. For you as a non-practising Muslim this might not have any interest but for many it has.

KSA is also spending big sums on education, technology and science across the world to improve the world.

@Chak Bamu there was no need to close that other thread. Just delete troll posts or posts of no quality from that well-known troll and serial double user.

 

[Targon]

Yep I don't believe, at least I doubt what they take as base, its probably wealth of Saudi family as they barely involve or influence in foreign affairs, I believe what I see.

And I'm still behind what I said about the source of favor, you have varying views in Middle East, but when you get further from Middle east rate of favoring increases, I mentioned the reason for that, purely emotional without an actual knowlodge of the country or ruling family.

I already gave you the reasons for why those world-renowned organizations have written what they have written. It's pretty much well-known among those circles. They did not make it up and surely they have much more knowledge than you have on this field.

Yet, KSA is still much more popular in the ME than un-popular as all polls show. Moreover we are talking about the entire Islamic world and not just the ME which is a small part of that.

As I said KSA is the most popular Muslim country out there according to dozens of polls and the reasons for that are many as I have mentioned.

I don't expect you to agree or something(it would be the end of world if you agreed ), I'm stating my opinion and I still see nothing that debunks it, Saudi Arabia or Royal family has no stance or influence that could gain them favor, most of favoring is purely emotional, now lets end it before its comes to superior, cradle of civilization Arab world again

As I said I have Forbes, Newsweek, actual polls showing popularity and dozens of other links and analysts (not having anything to do with KSA) on my side so as I said if you think that you are more knowledgeable than all of them on this field then fair enough then we don't have much more to add I guess since we will not agree.

Popularity of country has nothing with actual political influence of state or King, and I keep repeating the reason about where this popularity comes from. I keep asking about the base of these sources, let Saudi Arabia aside, entire Arab League is pretty much useless and not taken much seriously, now what is "most influential" ? all King has is money nothing else, money opens gates of business but personally he doesn't have the favor of masses or have his name known everywhere.

Now really end this here because we will go nowhere, our opinions will not change.

Stop writing nonsense. Not going to bother anymore. I said everything that is needed to be said in this discussion.

You come across as arrogant and highly misinformed in this discussion as you are disputing world-renowned organizations, actual polls, plenty of sources and what not. You are basically disputing reliable data. Of course I have a hard time taking that seriously.

But whatever.

@Andalusi Knight

Welcome to the forum 7abibi. Great to see another brother joining PDF. We had an Moroccan user @FARSOLDIER but I think that he left the forum. At least he has not been seen for months.

There are not too many of us Arabs compared to our actual numbers out there (450 million) which might have something to do with this being a Pakistani forum but we have quite a sizable Saudi Arabian community, a few Egyptian users, a few Iraqi users, a few Tunisian users, a few Algerian users and your random Arab from Oman, Lebanon, Palestine, Kuwait, Syria, UAE etc.

Not many are that active though yet this section of the forum is still quite active compared to the numbers of active Arab users.
