Religious goods store

A religious goods store, also known as a religious bookstore, religious gifts store or religious supplies shop, is a store specializing in supplying materials used in the practice of a particular religious tradition, such as Buddhism, Taoism, Chinese folk religion, Christianity and Islam among other religions.

These shops are abundant across the Greater Chinese region as well as Overseas Chinese communities around the world.

In Iran, religious goods stores are usually visited to buy the Quran, Al Mafatih-Al Jinan, goods like the tasbīḥ, and many other things. One of the services related to this is to add a page to Mafatih al-Jinan book for a deceased loved one.

In Christendom, religious goods stores are often visited to purchase Christian art, books and devotional material for the home, as well as gifts such as Bibles, Ichthys emblems, daily devotionals or cross necklaces for occasions such as baptism, confirmation and marriage.
