May Allah (swt) bless our beautiful, ancient and vast Arab world and may peace and progress arrive to the unruly areas of the Arab world.

Comoros:

Comoros is the Southernmost Arab country and the country is located on the Southern Hemisphere off the coast of Tanzania and Mozambique (Swahili coast). The people are of a mostly mixed Arab-African ancestry and they have a unique Arab dialect.

Comoros:

The traditional architectural style of the Comoros (also that of the entire Swahili coast) seen in old buildings and mosques is similar to that of the Southern Arabian Peninsula, especially Oman and parts of Yemen due to historical reasons and those areas of Africa being ruled by Arabs from that part of the Arab world.

Anyway it's a very poor country nearly totally dependent on tourism - which is not very big compared to nearby Mauritius, Seychelles etc. Personally I would like to see bigger Arab investments in Comoros so we can help them.

Wait a second? So are you from KSA or just an Arab that can trace his ancestry to Hijaz? Which Arab country are you from if I may ask? Just curious since I am a bit confused here.

@BLACKEAGLE

Jordan will always be special to the hearts of nearby Hijaz and Hijazis and especially me personally!
