Saudi Arabia reverses ban on selling properties to Shiites | GulfNews.com

Saudi religious authorities have announced the withdrawing of a religious fatwa issued by a senior scholar preventing the selling of real estate to Shiites, the Saudi press reported yesterday.
A circular issued by the Ministry of Islamic Affairs branch in the Eastern province asked the imams of mosques in the region to “ban putting on the advertisement board the fatwa of the late Shaikh Abdullah Bin Jibrin, from the committee of senior religious scholars, which prohibited the sale of real estate to Shiites”.
The circular warns those who put up the fatwa and asks others to report them.
