Saya masih ingat baca di majalah National Geographic beberapa
tahun yang lalu bahwa jumlah buku di Perpustakaan Kerajaan Arab
Saudi (kalau nggak salah ingat di Jedah) isinya sama banyaknya
dengan buku perpustakaan umum dikota Cincinati...
Dan boleh dibilang tidak ada buku ilmiah dan buku yang kritis
terhadap Islam...
Allahu Akbar.
