From the Catholic Herald: Muslim scholars visiting the Vatican Apostolic Library are being accommodated with prayer spaces, its Vice Prefect has confirmed.
Fr Giacomo Cardinali, Vice Prefect, said in an interview with the Italian newspaper La Repubblica that Muslim academics had requested a small area in which to pray, and the library had agreed. “Some Muslim scholars have asked us for a room with a carpet for praying and we have given it to them,” he said.
The Vatican Library, founded in the mid-15th century and often regarded as the intellectual heart of the Catholic Church, houses a vast array of manuscripts and texts from across the world’s religions and cultures.
Fr Cardinali said its collections include “incredibly old Qurans” alongside Hebrew, Ethiopian, Arabic, and Chinese works. “We are a universal library,” he explained.
News of the shocking development has prompted massive outrage.
DMLNewsApp founder and podcast host Dennis Michael Lynch voiced his fury over the issue, and pointed out that our God asks us to pray to Him only and denounce all other gods, and “Allah” is not the same as the divine creator who Christians worship.
He noted that no Muslim mosque would allow Christians to have a section for pews and a cross in their building.

The backlash continues….
Valentina Gomez asked the Pope, “Why did you allow a muslim prayer room in The Vatican? What kind of pope allows for terrorists to have a place here? What’s next? A trans room? An abortion clinic room?”

A Muslim Prayer room in the Vatican?
Wow, Jesus Christ would definitely approve of this wouldn’t He?
Yes pray to false gods as an act of hospitality in an environment that claims to worship Jesus Christ

As a devout Catholic, I’m outraged by the Vatican’s betrayal in allowing a Muslim prayer room—mixing the one true faith with falsehoods! “Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers.

The Vatican granted Muslim researchers a dedicated room with a prayer rug inside the Vatican Apostolic Library. They claim it’s for accommodation and to show common courtesy, but why do you need to show common courtesy to pagans to openly pray to their false god in a sacred… pic.twitter.com/MFzPqV1r5L

Great Britain News reported that this would never happen under reverse circumstances:
But despite the openness of the holiest site in Catholicism, the city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia takes a much harder stance on inter-faith acceptance.
Islam’s holy city receives nine million visitors each year – none of whom are non-Muslims.
Those of other or no faith are strictly prohibited from entering the city under Saudi law.
Non-Muslims found inside the city are subject to heavy fines, imprisonment and deportation.
