Why was Mecca important site to the Arabs?
Answer 1It was important because they had the power and because they had wealthy people and it was good for trade.Answer 2During the Pre-Islamic Period, Mecca was important to Arabs as it had a number of holy sites such as the Ka'aba (which in that period was full of idols). The religious holiness of the city made it a violence free zone in order to preserve the artifiacts. The benefit conferred by this status of being a non-violent zone also made it a commercial hub since trade could be conducted there without the threat of thieves attacking and stealing these goods. Therefore, Mecca became the economic center of the Peninsula.Of course, in the Islamic Period, Mecca was cleansed of idols and became a holy city for Muslims.
