THE KAABA A
PLACE OF WORSHIP!
Kaaba:
also known as, Ka'bah, Kabah and Caaba is the center of the holiest
place of worship in Islam (Submission in English), i.e. the Sacred
Mosque of Mecca, Al Masjid Al-Haram. Its name means the cube in
Arabic as it is a cube shaped stone structure built in the middle
of the Sacred Mosque. The Kaaba was built by prophet Abraham as
a landmark for the House of God ,for the sole purpose of worshipping
of God alone.
[Quran; 2:125] We have rendered the
shrine (the Ka`aba) a focal point for the people, and a safe sanctuary.
You may use Abraham's shrine as a prayer house. We commissioned
Abraham and Ismail: "You shall purify My house for those
who visit, those who live there, and those who bow and prostrate."
