Sitting astride the significant shipping lane of the Arabian Gulf, as opposed to the neighboring des- erts, Bahrain became a destination for immigrants flock- ing from different regions of the Gulf, and even beyond. It further explores the fact that Bahrain was a haven for various religions since the ancient times, where the followers of the three religions of “Islam, Christianity and Judaism” coexisted with the adherents of other religions in harmony and love.
