Newsi: But you said exact replica. Well, the kaaba has undergone many renovations over the years. |

LagosShia: Guy, abeg carry this your trash somewhere else and stop acting like a Munafiq. Even a slowpoke knows what rubbish you are driving at. It is your choice if you want to die on that Shia crap you practise, don't try fooling us with playing the victim act. 1 Like |

Read there was a time the shrine was taken over by terrorists. It took the intervention of French forces to save the day. I don't know if that's true. Quite historic fa. |

@tbaba what is the black stone, it's history and why is it in the kaaba. |

Obiagelli: @tbaba what is the black stone, it's history and why is it in the kaaba. It is not in the kaaba, It is outside it, a meteorite used as a stone on one of it's corners. We do not give any divine attribute to it. Umar ibn Al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) is reported to have said: “You are just a stone that does not benefit or harm anyone, and if I had not seen the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) kissing you, I would have not done so."

tbaba1234:oh, I didn't know that. I guess it's of no significance, but why did they have to fight for it in time past. |

Obiagelli: It was once taken away once by an sect from bahrain for 70 years, it did not stop prayers. It is a marker for the tawaaf not an object of worship. |

I thought that's the stuff they throw stones at every year? So people do things there? I thought they call it satan? |

speedyboi: I thought that's the stuff they throw stones at every year? So people do things there? I thought they call it satan? No, that is called the jamarat. At the jamarat, muslims throw pebbles at pillars signifying where Abraham was tempted by the satan when he was to sacrifice his son. The kaaba is a mosque which we regard as sacred. |

tbaba1234: With all due respect bro! Black stone? A meteorite? Just like that? Is that your definition? Because that 'definition' is a reflection of the saying of Umar in the ffg hadith! tbaba1234: For prophet (saws) to have revered and kissed the black stone suggested it isn't JUST A STONE as the hadith claimed. And besides has there been anytime in the history of Islam under the guidance of the holy prophet (saws) where anybody thinks to make the black stone "an idol"? Black stone isn't just a stone just like Zamzam isn't just a water and all the relics associated with Hajj aren't just relics. I appreciate hadith where sahaba will ask the prophet (saws) why he did what he does even despite the command:"...if you love Allah, follow me"~Qur'an. Thaba, Pls I will appreciate if this comment is not deleted or hidden. |

^ The point, i am trying to make is simple. It has no power to benefit or harm. It is not an object of worship. There is the benefit of expiation of sins reported in tirmidhi but it has no power of its own. I was trying to clarify a perception of worship. 1 Like |

Thousands circle the sacred Kaaba at the centre of the Haram sanctuary 24 hours a day. Millions of homes are adorned with pictures of it and over a billion face it five times a day.knowledge is good. But op, just asking, i tot the word "Haram" meant something forbidden in islam? is it that that word "haram" has another meaning, kindly explain! |

hisblud: knowledge is good. But op, just asking, i tot the word "Haram" meant something forbidden in islam? is it that that word "haram" has another meaning, kindly explain! Bait ul Haram-the honourable house. Yes, it has another meaning. However, the pronouncement is different. |

[quote author=LagosShia]Mr. tbaba, I found some points interesting and I would like you to expand on them. for instance on point no.4,we read that the images of rulers, under whose reign the Ka'ba was renovated, are found inside the Ka'ba.isnt that "shirk"? how can we have pictures of often times tyrants to be placed inside the Ka'ba towards which muslims face during salat? I am emphasizing on this point because the same people carrying out this act are very quick in jumping into conclusion and accus plaque doestnt really means pictures,it might be their written names |
Re: Things You Didnt Know About The Kaaba by AlBaqir(m): 8:52am On Dec 04, 2013 |
hisblud: knowledge is good. But op, just asking, i tot the word "Haram" meant something forbidden in islam? is it that that word "haram" has another meaning, kindly explain! Literally it means the same "Haram" : "forbidden"; Masjidul Haram : "forbidden" mosque! "Baytul Haram: "forbidden" house! But used in different context. Indicating every worldly things are forbidden on you in that Mosque or house the moment you enter. But here, the word "sacred" is used instead of "forbidden" for better understanding. Consider also the following example: When you about to begin your Hajj, one of the first thing you will do is to put on IHRAM. The Ihram share the same origin with the word "hurum, haram, masjidul haram etc". And it is very similar to the Takbiratul Ihram that one perform at the start of salat. Why is Takbiratul Ihram called Takbiratul Ihram and why is this garment called Ihram? When we say our salat, the reason we call the first Takbir; the Takbiratul Ihram, is because this is the Takbir that makes everything Haram on us until we complete our salat. The Ihram you put on for Hajj is very similar to that: a lot of things has become Haram on you once you put on this garment until it is time to take it off. So in putting on Ihram, you have symbolically leave everything besides Allah until you have completed your Hajj. It is like dying putting on shroud and going to meet your maker. Salam 2 Likes |
