Sap Moderator Australia 16827 Posts	Posted 05/09/2008 8:32 pm It is indeed Saudi Arabian, and commemorates the death of King Faisal. The dates "1324" and "1395" (in Arabic numerals) are his birth and death years in the Islamic calendar - 1906 and 1975 respectively. The small "925" on the mosque side is presumably the silver(?) fineness. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
