Saudi Arabia has banned commercial establishments from printing or writing the names of Allah on bags, packaging, and promotional materials that could be mishandled or discarded. The Ministry of Commerce, led by Abdulrahman Al Hussain, said the move aims to protect the sanctity of the Divine Names. Chambers of commerce will ensure compliance, and legal action will follow violations.
