(The divine miracle (wonder In the name of Allah Most gracious ,most merciful Members of my precious Forum Yet I realized how the obvious became to some certain people in-obvious, since the biggest wonder above all is "Ka'ba", it is indeed the wonder of both ancient & modern worlds, it deserves the name wonder with fully right of the name when other wonders are human made, for temporary needs, sometimes selfish needs, conditioned within their humanly limited minds whilst the graceful "Ka'ba" is a realistic fact beyond and above human powers it was not in anyway created by ordinary human, nor they can challenge this fact no matter what accomplishments a human had it is a wonder with it's loca tion , with its benefits, and it stays this way because "Ka'ba" is the center of universe nor earth only no stone on earth is from heaven, only the "highest stone" or what is known now by "black stone", and no water on earth is from heaven, only the water of "zamzam", that sprang out of the kick of the holy child.. son of Abraham the prophet the black stone and Zamzam water holy builders: it was the angles who first built it, unlike other wonders ???and what's above that building the holy haunted home on heaven, where the angles keep moving in a circling form, whilst people on earth do the same What is above the House of allah there is in heaven the throne of the only god people worship so.. when there are no match between wonders and "ka'ba" since it is wonder of the wonders, human creation and god creation, I cant see a compartment at all today I give my closure to this search about holy "ka'ba", hoping you find it useful Loc ation Of Mecca Makkah Mecca is at the intersection of latitude 21 to 25 degree north and longitude 39 to 49 degree east. It is set in a rugged landscape consisting mostly of solid granite, with rocks sometimes reaching 300 meters (1,000 feet) above sea level Makkah is enclosed by the Valley of Abraham, which is surrounded by two nearby mountain ranges to the east, west and south. The northern range comprises the Al-Falaq and Qu'aqi'an mountains, while the southern range consists of Abu Hudaidah mountain to the west, Kuday to the south and Abu Qubais and Khindimah to the south-east There are three main entrances to Makkah: Al-Mu'allat also known as Al-Hujûn Al-Musfalah and Al-Shubaikah Mecca, Makkah General Information Mecca is the most important city to Muslims, and we are required to face it when we Pray. It is important because Muslims believe that the Patriarch Abraham personally built the Ka’aba (cube-shaped building), using the Black Stone in its construction. Abraham's son Ishmael assisted in that construction,. Because Abraham was willing to sacrifice his son because the Lord asked him to do so, clearly indicated that Abraham was the first truly Devout believer in the One God (Allah). This makes Abraham the central human figure in Muslim beliefs, the first of the Patriarchs. The fact that Muslims face Mecca is really them facing the Ka’aba, in honor to Abraham Ka’aba is located in the city of Mecca in the Arabian desert in the Arabian peninsula, of what is known today as Saudi Arabia Ka’aba - The House of Allah In the province of Hejaz in the western part of Arabia, not far from the Red Sea, there lies the town of Makka. In the centre of this town there is a small square building made of stones, about 60 feet long, 60 feet wide and 60 feet high. Since time immemorial this town and this stone built house has been known to world travelers. This is Baitullah, the House of Allah. Its sanctity and antiquity is older than history itself THE HISTORY OF KAABA The History of Ka’aba As A Place Of Worship Kaaba, also is the center of the holiest place of worship in Islam, 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. Ka’aba was built by prophet Abraham as a landmark for the House of God ,for the sole purpose of worshipping of God alone As Abraham raised the foundations of the shrine, together with Ismail (they prayed): "Our Lord, accept this from us. You are the Hearer Kaaba is the center of the circumambulations performed during the pilgrimage (hajj), and it is toward the Kaaba that Muslims face in their prayers (salat). Before prophet Muhammed's advent, Meccans who lost the religion of Abraham's monotheism, worshipped many idols, most notable of which were al-Lat, al-Uzza and Manat. The Black Stone, possibly of meteoric origin, is located at one of its outside corners. It has been used by the pilgrims as a landmark to count the number of circumambulations Some traditional Muslims of their religion, consider the stone holy and put emphasis on touching it and kissing it. The actual structure of the Ka’aba has been demolished and rebuilt several times in the course of its history. Around the Ka’aba is a restricted area, haram, extending in some directions as far as 12 miles, into which only Muslims may enter Ka’aba & Mecca In History "The most important shrine established for the people is the one in Becca; a blessed beacon for all the people. In it are clear signs: the station of Abraham. Anyone who enters it shall be granted safe passage. The people owe it to GOD that they shall observe Hajj to this shrine, when they can afford it Kaaba, Black Stone, hajr-e-aswad General Information Ka’aba (Arabic, "a square building"), Islam's most sacred sanctuary and pilgrimage shrine, is located in the courtyard of the Great Mosque of Mecca. According to the Koran, the cubic-shaped structure was built by Adam according to a divine plan and rebuilt by Abraham and Ishmael. A trough in which they reputedly mixed mortar stands near the door and is a popular place of prayer. The Ka’aba houses the Black Stone, the most venerated object for Muslims. Probably of meteoric origin, the stone is reputed to have been given to Ishmael by the angel Gabriel. When Muhammad began to preach to the Meccans, the Ka’aba was a shrine for the pagan deities of the Arabs. After the Prophet established control of Mecca, the shrine was rededicated to Allah. All Muslims face toward the Ka’aba during their daily prayers The annual pilgrimage to the Ka’aba takes place in the first ten days of Dhu al-Hijja, the last lunar month of the Islamic calendar. The Black Stone set on the outside of one corner of the structure is solemnly kissed by all pilgrims who can gain access to it. Lesser pilgrimages are performed throughout the year For Muslims, the Ka’aba is the "House of God," where the divine touches the mundane. It is washed annually and covered with a dark silk cloth. The Kaaba has been greatly expanded since Muhammad's times, a mosque-court having been built around it; recently a gate of solid gold was added Tradition goes that the Ka’aba was ordained by Allah to be built in the shape of the House in Heaven called Baitul Ma’amoor. Allah in his infinite Mercy ordained a similar place on earth and Prophet Adam was the first to build this place when God ordained Abraham to erect a Shrine for worship when Abraham was ordered to go to the Southern desert with his wife Hagera and infant son Ismael. The Old Testament describes this building as the Shrine of God at several places, but the one built at Ma’amoor is very much similar to the one at Makka. There is no doubt that it was referring to the stone built house at Makka Qora’an brought this story into the full light of history. In Sura 3 Verse 90 Qora’an says “Allah has spoken the Truth, therefore follow the creed of Ibrahim, a man of pure faith and no idolater”. The first house established for the people was at Makka, a Holy place and a guidance to all beings. Qora’an firmly establishes the fact that Ibrahim was the real founder of the Holy Shrine When Prophet Ibrahim built the Holy Shrine in Makka, his prayers were that this place should remain a centre of worship for all good and pious people; that Allah should keep his family the custodians of the Holy place. Ever since, Ismael the son of Ibrahim who helped his father to build this place and his descendants remained the custodians of the Holy Shrine. History tells us that centuries passed and the guardianship of the Ka’aba remained in the family of Ismael until the name of Abde Manaf came into the limelight. He inherited this service and made it much more prominent. His son Hashim took this leadership and extended it to many other towns of Hejaz so much so that many pilgrims flocked annually to this place and enjoyed Hashims’s hospitality. A feast was given in honour of the pilgrims, food and water was served to all guests by the family of Hashim. This prominence created jealousies and his brother Abdushams’ adopted son Ummayya tried to create trouble. There was a dispute in which Umayya failedand left Makka to settle down in the Northern provinces of Suria(Sham) currently known as Syria. After Hashim his brother Muttalib and after him Hashim’s son Shyba who became known as Abdul Muttalib assumed the leadership of the family. He organised feasts and supplies of water to the pilgrims during the annual festival of Pilgrimage to the Holy Shrine Prophet Ibrahim built this House for devout worship to one God. But within his lifetime people disobeyed his orders and began to put idols inside the Ka’aba. Ibrahim had to clean the House of these idols and of Idle worshippers. He told the people that this was a symbolic house of God. God does not live there for He is everywhere. People did not understand this logic and no sooner had Ibrahim died the people, out of reverence, filled the place with idols again. They thronged to this place annually and worshipped their personal gods, It was over Four Thousand years later that the last of the line of prophet, Muhammad Ibne Abdullah entered Makka triumphantly, went inside the Ka’aba and, with the help of his cousin and son in law Ali Ibne Abi Talib, destroyed all the idols of Ka’aba with their own hands. At one stage of this destruction of idols, the tallest of the idol Hubbol was brought down after Ali had to stand on the shoulders of the Prophet to carry out God’s orders. The Prophet of Islam was reciting the Verse from the Qur’an Truth hath come and falsehood hath vanished This was done in the 8th year of Hijra, January 630 AD after the bloodless victory at Makka by the Prophet of Islam Historically when Ibrahim was ordered by Allah to build the Shrine for worship over a small he uncovered the original foundations of the Ka’aba built by Adam. Ibrahim with the help of his son Ismael erected the new shrine on the same foundations. Originally it contained only four walls without a roof . Centuries later during the time of Kusayi who was the leader of the Tribe of Quraish in Makka a taller building was completed with a roof and a quadrangle wall around it to give it the shape of a sanctuary and doors all around the sanctuary walls People entered through these doors to come to the Ka’aba for worship. It is now about 60 feet high, 60 feet wide from east to west and 60 feet from north to south A door is fixed about 7 feet above ground level facing North East A Black stone (Hajar al Aswad) was fixed into its eastern corner In front of the building was Maqame Ibrahim, the arch shape gate known as that of Banu Shayba and the Zamzam Well Just outside are the Hills called Safa and Merwa and thedistance between the hills is about 500 yards. These days both of the hills are enclosed into the sanctuary walls with a roof over it The whole building is built of the layers of grey blue stone from the hills surrounding Makka. The four corners roughly face the four points of the compass. At the East is the Black stone (Rukn el Aswad), at the North is el Ruken el Iraqi, at the west al Rukne el Shami and at the south al Rukne el Yamani The four walls are covered with a curtain (Kiswa) The kiswa is usually of black brocade with the Shahada outlined in the weave of the fabric About 2/3rd’s of the way up runs a gold embroidered band covered with Qur'anic t ext In the Eastern corner about 5 feet above ground the Hajar el Aswad (the blackstone) is fixed into the wall. Its real nature is difficult to determine, its visible shape is worn smooth by hand touching and kissing. Its diameter is around 12 inches. Opposite the North west wall but not connected with it, is a semi circular wall of white marble. It is 3 feet high and about 5 feet thick. This semi circular space enjoys an especial consideration and pilgrims wait in queue to find a place to pray there The graves of Ismael and his mother Hajera are within this semi circular wall. Between the archway and the facade is a little building with a small dome, the Maqame Ibrahim. Inside it is kept a stone bearing the prints of two human feet. Prophet Ibrahim is said to have stood on this stone when building the Ka’aba and marks of his feet are miraculously preserved On the outskirts of the building to the North East is the ‘Zamzam Well’ (this is now put under ground History of the building of the Ka’aba Qur’an in Sura Baqra Verses 121 to 127 described it clearly that Allah had ordained his servant Ibrahim to build the Shrine there for worship of One God. During Kusayi’s time it was rebuilt and fortified. During the early years of Prophet Muhammad (SA) before he announced his ministry, the Ka’aba was damaged by floods and it was rebuilt again When the Black stone was to be put in its place the Makkans quarreled among themselves as to who should have the honour to place it there. They had just decided that the first comer to the quadrangle should be given the task of deciding as to who should have the honor. Muhammad came in and was assigned this task. He advised them to place the stone in a cloak and ordered the heads of each Tribe each to take an end and bring the cloak nearer the corner on the eastern side. He himself then took out the stone and placed it in its position. It has been fixed there ever since The Ka’aba successfully withstood the Karamatian invasion of 317/929, only the Blackstone was carried away which was returned some twenty years later. In the year 1981 the Wahabis brought tanks inside the Ka’aba to crush the kahtani revolution against the Saudi regime and almost demolished the South Eastern Wall. This was later restored with the help of the Makkan people Every man living in Makka in the 6th and 7th century must out of necessity have had some relationship with the Ka’aba. On the Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam, the Qur’an is silent during the Makkans period in this respect. All that is known is that the muslim community of the period turned towards Jerusalem in prayers. Subsequently about a year and a half after the Hijra the Muslims were ordered during prayers which were lead by the Prophet of Islam himself to turn towards Makka. The particular mosque in Madina where this happened is called Masjide Qiblatain, meaning the mosque with two Qiblas.The Qur’an tells the muslims, “ turn then they face towards the sacred mosque and wherever ye be turn your faces towards that part ”Qur’an II,139/144 At this same period the Qur’an began to lay stress on the religion of Ibrahim, presenting Islam as a return to the purity of the religion of Ibrahim which, obscured by Judaism and Christianity, shone forth in its original brightness in the Qur’an. The pilgrimage’s to the Ka’aba and ritual progressions around the building were continued, but were now for the glorification of One God. The Abrahimic vision of the Ka’aba created a means of discerning an orthodox origin buried in the midst of pagan malpractices to which the first muslims pointed the way Every year after the Hajj ceremony the place is closed for one month and on the Day of Ashura the Ka’aba is washed from inside by the Water from the well of Zamzam and a new Kiswa is brought to cover the Ka’aba for the next year This is the story of the Ka’aba and the persons who protected it and remained its custodians and protectors from the satanic and evil forces throughout history ? What is inside the Ka’aba description There are two pillars inside (others report 3 pillars There is a table on the side to put items like perfume There are two lantern-type lamps hanging from the ceiling The space can accommodate about 50 people There are no electric lights inside The walls and floors are of marble There are no win dows inside There is only one door The upper inside walls of the Ka’aba were covered with some kind of curtain with the Kalima written on it "ka'ba" the Bizarre divine your body is Electromagnetic Your body receives much of the electromagnetic radiation daily from the electrical devices which we uses most of the time day and night Your body is a receiver of a large amount of electromagnetic radiation that you are charged with electronically without feeling Your have headaches, narrowness, Laziness and inactivity, and an unforgettable different pain ?So how could we get rid of it Western Researcher found in his scientific research the best way to get rid of the positive electrical shipments in the human body by setting his forehead on the ground more than once because the ground has negative electrical shipments Likewise when it happens in the electrical services, which extend under the ground in buildings to withdraw electrical shipments from lightening when it strikes Earth And you’ll be more astonished when he says better to put your forehead on the sand directly its And more astonished when he says The best way is this matter putting your forehead on the ground directly to the center of the earth ”Al Ka’aba “ In this case you’ll get rid of electric cargo better and stronger And you’ll be more amazed when you find out that Mecca is at the Center for planet Makkah is located in the middle of the globe Astronomist scientist has confirmed that the corners of al Kaaba supervisingly met the four geographic trends So the prostration For God in you prayer - is the optimal situation to unload those harmful shipments This is exactly what we do in our prayers , which we feel relief after prayers In which it Is the optimal situation for being near Creator of the universe and creative Sublime Allah The supervising secret of wandering around al ka'ba Dr. Mohamed Ali Albar \ "adviser Section medicine Islamic Center, King Fahd Medical Research and King Abdulaziz University JEDDAH mentioned In his article the secret of wandering around al "ka'ba Says Dr Putting al "ka'ba" on the left shoulder of the person wandering, .beginning with the black stone is circular movement "against clockwise " same as the entire universe we’ll find it in a circular nonstop movement The electrons, in their orbits around the nucleus, are the same movement of wandering around al "ka'ba The animal semen surrounding the egg before fertilizing , wonders against clockwise same as we mentioned before Earth movement on its self and the sun is the same as wondering on al "ka'ba" against clockwise And Then we find angels Wandering around the "ka'ba" with non stop and "ka'ba" never devoid of them and now isn’t "ka'ba" truly impressed Wonderland
