History

Ka’bah was build by Prophet Ibrahim and his son Ismail. First, Makka was a empty desert without anybody lived here, except Siti Hajar, Ibrahim’s wife, and their little son, Ismail. Ibrahim was ordered by Allah SWT to leave his son and his wife in the empty hot desert.  When the water was exhausted. Siti Hajar was searched for the water and suddenly, the water came out from the sand under Ismail’s foot. Then, that place was developing into the prosperous place that now call Makka,. At 1500 BC, Ibrahim and Ismail was ordered by Allah SWT for build a structure. So now, Ka’bah is stand magnificent.

Ka’bah is the square building with 13,10m height and side about  11,03m x 12,62m. There are some part of this structure that I would like to tell you

1.       Door

At the age of Prophet Ibrahim. Ka’bah has two door that located above the land, but because of the flood that happen before Muhammad was being the prophet, Ka’bah was renovated so now Ka’bah just has one door that located at up (not on the land again)

2.       Hajar Aswad

Hajar Aswad is the black stone, Prophet Muhammad said "Black Stone came down from heaven when the stone is so white whiter than milk. Sin of men that make it into the black stone ". (Hadith from Tirmidhi no. 877. Saheeh by Shaykh Al-Albani). First, Hajar Aswad was the white stone, because of Prophet Muhammad also kissed it when he was umra or hajj, so every moslem from everywhere always scramble to kiss it when they are umra or hajj, and the stone became black.

.       Maqam Ibrahim

There are the footprint of prophet Ibrahim when he was build the Ka’ba, it’s called Maqam Ibrahim. Maqam Ibrahim is located beside the Ka’bah. The length is about 27 cm, the width is 14 cm and the depth is 10 cm. It’s very big, right?
