Saudi Arabia Will Build Buildings Like The Kaaba, Vice President: Only The Architecture Is A Cube

JAKARTA - Vice President (Vice President) Ma'ruf Amin assessed that Saudi Arabia's plan to build a building called The Mukaab which forms a cube resembling the Kaaba is not a problem. However, as long as the goal is not to be made like the Kaaba.

"If you build a building that looks like a Kaaba but not a Kaaba, only the architecture is a cube, I don't think that's something that's a problem. Except to make the Kaaba, to make it happen again in other places with the aim of people coming there, now that's just a problem," said the Vice President, Wednesday, February 1, confiscated by Antara.

According to the Vice President, Saudi Arabia has no intention of building another Kaaba. It's just that the building is in the form of a cube inspired by the shape of the Kaaba.

"The building is just about the architect, I think all kinds of things, maybe he was inspired by the Kaaba he made a cube but didn't build the Kaaba," he said.

"I don't think that's a problem in my opinion, right, because he didn't build the Kaaba, unless someone built another Kaaba, it was just a (problem) problem," continued Ma'ruf.

As discussed, Saudi Arabia plans to build a project called The Mukaab in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The project is a large building with a cube shape that is said to resemble the Kaaba. The project reaped various views from the world's Muslims.
