Created by Cplakidas (talk). Self-nominated at 13:24, 11 June 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Sack of Mecca (930); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

The article met the criteria through many extensions. In addition, it is judged that it meets the appropriate reference criteria by referring to officially published books. The proposed hook also provides sufficient attention. Religious disputes have always attracted the attention of many people.Kloyan.L (talk) 07:54, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
