I wonder, I am always confused with sugar-coated explanations without giving me logic and with reasoning. Why one has to go on Hajj? Prophet Mohammed (Peace be upon him) taught us to worship only Allah, one and only one. Then why we have to go and kiss and take circles of stone/structure? Why to follow rituals of stone throwing? Prophet talked about one God- Allah and the most important entity for believers, then why we copycat Christianity and cannot come out of their practices of eulogizing Jesus and similarly in our case Prophet?

Many great saints came and went before them and will follow them (like we have in Shia traditions), do we lose our focus from Allah and start talking more of the medium than the ultimate Creator- Allah?

I am confused, why we worship idols in different forms? Why do we follow rituals? Why do we waste hard earned money to travelling to Saudi Arabia? Was it not started as a means of sustaining the economy of Mecca and its surrounding- of course by business minded selfish people of that time, and camouflaged it as made compulsory by Prophet?

Any logical explanation? Why shall I bend towards Mecca instead of concentrating and praying to Allah? Is Allah only in Mecca and that too in black stone?

Please help

How did the early Muslims who arrived in Africa view African religions?

The first Muslims to arrive in Africa did so during Muhammed's lifetime, and their purpose was universal conversion and/or conquest in the name of both Allah (the Muslim name for God) and Muhammed. They perceived all religions other than Islam to be false. Anyone who did not submit to Allah willingly was threatened with death or killed outright. This was a very convincing way to spread their religion, and it was highly successful.

How is Jerusalem Mecca and Medina Important to the Islamic people?

Mecca is important to Islam because it is where the Kabbah is located. The Kabbah is the construct which Muslims pray towards and have to visit when performing their Hajj Migration. It's also where the Prophet Muhammed is from. Medina is important because it is the first city which pledged their allegiance to Muhammed, and gave Muhammed refuge when he had to escape from Mecca due to persecution- and therefore it was the first Islamic State (the Islamic calendar starts when Muhammed journeyed to Mecca). Jerusalem is important because other Islamic prophets like Abraham, Jesus, Moses are connected with Jerusalem (yes they are the same biblical ones - Islam considers itself an extension of judaiochristiandom). Moreover, its important because that is where the Prophet visited during his ascension to Heaven (he visited heaven according to Islamic theology and stopped at Jerusalem). Finally, Jerusalem was the direction of prayer for the Muslims initially when the Kabbah was full of idols.
