Críticas:
"The photographs of these two cities are spectacular. What makes the book and the photographs even more compelling is that these cities are closed to non-Muslims and thus the book provides a rare glimpse at a culture, and its artifacts, such as its architecture that is little known. A fascinating look at one of the world's largest and least known living traditions." --Kirk Robertson, "Neon"
-Some of the photographs in the book show the number of people who make this great journey each year. The crowds and camaraderie that must be felt to be one of the millions there must be amazing. The Hajj chapter has the most text of the entire book. It explains the various stages of the journey well and in much more detail than Hajj Stories did. I really feel like it gave us a good introduction to the amazing trip and the effort it must be to make it. [...] The photographs of Medina are beautiful and many show the beautiful designs of Islamic art.- --Crafty Moms Share blog

Mecca the Blessed, Medina the Radiant is an unprecedented photographic exploration of the most holy cities of Islam and the hajj, or annual pilgrimage during Ramadan, when more than a million faithful journey to Mecca's Great Mosque to commemorate the first revelation of the Qur'an (Koran). This book allows both Muslims and those unfamiliar with the Islamic faith complete access to the holiest sites of one of the world's major religions, practiced by a quarter of the world's population but often misunderstood in the west. Photographer Ali Kazuyoshi Namachi, a Muslim convert from Japan, garnered the full support of Saudi Arabian authorities rarely given to shoot in cities where photography is strictly controlled and non-Muslims are not allowed. An expansive work of photojournalism, Mecca the Blessed, Medina the Radiant includes: 140 full-colour, never-before-seen photographs. Mystical places and scenes of Islam. Breathtaking aerial photographs of the Arabian terrain. Vistas of teeming crowds of worshippers surrounding the Kacbah, Mecca's sacred center. Intense portraits of faithful Muslims in prayer. Magnificent architecture reflecting the faith of the believers. Archival illustrations. Text by Seyyed Hossein Nasr, one of the most highly regarded scholars of Islam, enhances the stunning Islamic holy city photographs to illuminate many aspects of Islamic belief that have remained enigma to non-Muslims until now.
