      There is also a fake Ka'bah that was built by the Rafidas in Iran. Insha'Allāh, that one will be demolished too.
      And Insha'Allāh, the Iranians will return to the way of their honorable forefathers -- the likes of Salman al-Farsi, may ALLAH be pleased with him; and the likes of Imam Abu Hanifa and the 6 Imams of Hadith, may ALLAH have mercy on them.

      Oddly enough, I have heard one was built in Kenya too (only ~11% of Kenyans are Muslims). Insha'Allāh, that one will be dealt with too. If our Prophet (ﷺ) had ordered for the Yemeni one to be destroyed, then what excuse is there for any others?

      You pray toward the wall of the Kaaba. Search for video of Saudi Honorary Guest (who were given access to enter The Kaaba, probably some head of states) praying inside the Kaaba.
      Inside the Kaaba, there's a certain spot where the Prophet used to do prayer/sholah whenever he's inside the Kaaba. And on that spot, the Propet was facing the wall of the Kaaba.

    • @xxxschlodinger5077
      @xxxschlodinger5077 Před 3 měsíci

      The Kaaba indeed "nowadays" means cube. It shares similarity with the word "cube". However, the root word for Kaaba الكعبة is كعب which "strangely" could means round and roundly full like a swelling. It could also means lower and heel (Kaaba was located in a valley). It could also means elementary, backbone, spine and the list goes on.
      But it doesn't matter. What matter is, it used to shape like a RECTANGULAR BOX (and it is a fact that no one can deny), it used to be lower in height (Prophet's companion/sahaba and muslims back then used to climb the roof of Kaaba to make the call of prayer/adzhan), it uses different stone throughout the history, it has been rebuild right from it's foundation 3 times after the death of Prophet and small renovations a couple of times.
      And in the time of Prophet, they call the Kaaba as البيت الحرام (Al Bayt Al Haram) literally translates as The Forbidden (Sacred) House (forbidden in a sense that it's sacred) or البيت الله (Al Bayt Allah- The House of God) or simply البيت (the House)
