The Beauty Of Mecca

Ka'bah is a building that serves as a benchmark or a direction or direction for things that are worship for Muslims around the world such as prayer. In addition, the Ka'bah is a building that must be visited or pilgrimage for Muslims during the Hajj and Umrah season. At first, Mecca was just an empty bed. From as far as the eye can see we see only the sand wrestling in the middle of the stinging heat. The zam-zam water flow first transformed the arid region into a small place that began the civilization of a new group of Islamic worlds. The Ka'bah was named as Bayt al 'Atiq a restored building during the time of Prophet Ibrahim and Prophet Ismail after Prophet Ishmael was in Mecca On the orders of Allah SWT. In the Qur'an, Ibrahim's verse 37 denotes that the holy site of the Ka'bah was present at the time of Prophet Ibrahim who placed Siti Hajar and Prophet Ismail as a baby at that location. Prophet Ishmael was the son of Prophet Ibrahim and Siti Hajar, Tiny that first touches the source of the zam-zam springs. Siti Hajar and Prophet Ismail who was then left by the Prophet Ibrahim to Canaan in the middle of the desert, suddenly many traveler arrivals. There are some travelers who decide to stay, but some go. Prophet Ibrahim who came and then received revelation to establish the Kaaba in the city. Ka'bah itself which means place with the highest respect and position. Kaaba which was founded by Prophet Ibrahim which is located right at the place of the old Ka'bah which was founded Prophet Adam was destroyed by the flash floods in the time of Noah.

Prophet Adam was the first Prophet to establish the Ka'ba. In the year 1500 BC recorded in the first year of the Ka'bah and re-established. Together with his obedient son, Prophet Ismail, Prophet Ibrahim who built the Ka'bah from the rocks of Hira hill, Qubays, and other places. The higher from day to day they built the Kaaba, and finally finished 30-31 cubits long, 20 cubits wide. At first the building without a roof, just four square walls with two doors. In one of the side slits of a building filled with large black stones known as the Black Stone. This stone is stored in the hill Qubays when in the time of Noah when the great floods hit. This stone is very special, because this stone is given by the Angel Gabriel.

Until now, millions of Muslim world can kiss this stone when performing Hajj or Umrah, a history exemplified by the Prophet Muhammad. Once completed, Allah ordered the Prophet Ibrahim to call on mankind to make pilgrimage to the Ka'ba who was asked as the house of Allah SWT. So from here, the beginning of Hajj, a great service for Muslims around the world. Because the Kaaba is not roofed and its low walls, about two meters, the precious things in it are often stolen. The Quraysh people who controlled Mecca thousands of years after the death of Prophet Ibrahim who took the initiative to renovate it. To do so, the initial building should be torn down first.
