The role of Saudi Arabia in financing global Islamic Jihad needs to be analysed deeply, since the Islamic Kingdom is considered as the guardian of Islam as the official custodian of Islam’s two holiest places viz Mecca nd Medina to which Muslims across the world visit to perform mandatory Haj every year in Kabaa of Mecca.
