- Mecca is a town in Saudi Arabia, considered holy ground within Islam. In the TMNT Adventures comic books, the turtles, Splinter and Ninjara head for Mecca in the storyline The Black Stone.
- Mecca is a city in the Hejaz in Saudi Arabia. It is the capital of that kingdom's Makkah Region. The city is located 70 km inland from Jeddah in a narrow valley at a height of 277 miles above sea level. Its resident population in 2012 was roughly 2 million, although visitors more than triple this number every year during the hajj ("pilgrimage") period held in the twelfth Muslim lunar month of Dhu al-Hijjah.
- Also, when a person of the muslim faith is buried, they have to face Mecca (much like when people are buried in the true faith, Christianity, they have to face Jeruselem). Also a cola and a type of cow I just made up. BTW Pagans use to travel to Mecca for religious purposes long before Islam was invented.
- Mecca (pronounced /ˈmɛkə/), also spelled Makkah (English: /ˈmækə/; Arabic: مكة Makka and in full: Arabic: مكّة المكرمة transliterated Makkah al-Mukarramah [mækːæt ælmukarːamæ]) is the holiest meeting site of the Islamic religion, closely followed by Medina. The city is modern, cosmopolitan and while being closed to non-Muslims, is nonetheless ethnically diverse. Islamic tradition attributes the beginning of Mecca to Ishmael's descendants. In the 7th century, the Islamic prophet Muhammad proclaimed Islam in the city which was by then an important trading center. After 966, Mecca was led by local sharifs until 1924 when the Ottoman Empire collapsed and it came under the rule of the Saudis. In its modern period, Mecca has seen tremendous expansion in size and infrastructure. The modern day city is the capital of Saudi Arabia's Mecca Province, in the historic Hejaz region. With a population of 1.7 million (2008), the city is located km ( mi) inland from Jeddah in a narrow valley at a height of m ( ft) above sea level.
- Mecca is in the Hejaz region of Saudi Arabia. That is why its sports teams are nicknamed "the Jazz." The city is surrounded by a gigantic ocean. Unfortunately for swimmers, the ocean is filled with sand and oil. The location of Mecca is important, because Muslims are supposed to face it when praying, and face away from it when on the toilet. Happily, the Obama administration is renovating all the lavatories at the Guantanamo "detention" facility, even though it is scheduled to be closed in 2009, in the interest of happier inmates. New smartphone apps conveniently tell Muslims which direction Mecca is, right after they view a short television ad and answer a few personal questions. Facing away from Mecca while relieving oneself becomes problematic once pilgrims arrive at Mecca, as there is Mecca in all directions. These devotees have to take a bus outside the city several times each day. When pilgrims arrive at Mecca, the thing to do is to go straight to the Kaaba (pictured) and contemplate its perfect, cubical structure and other mysteries of the universe. Then leave and try to find a place to eat dinner that won't make you sick. Non-Muslims do not have to worry about where Mecca is at all. Because you won't be allowed in. Homosexuals should give thought to where Mecca is, in order to be sure not to be there.
