Such a change would cause massive-forum slowdown. :shake:

Both Google and Wikipedia consider "Masjid Al-Haram" to be the correct spelling.

What does the game say?

Just use المسجد الحرام.

Which, transliterated, should be Al-Masjid Al-Haram.

in the french game, it's writen:
"The Masjid Al-Haraam"

and not:
"The Masjid Al-Haram"

why??? :confused:

Because it's transliterated differently in English and French, I guess. The vowel sounds are different between the two languages.
