Answer: The Kaabah is called the House of God, but it is not where God is. God is above the seven heavens. It is simply the first place for the worship of God that was built. It is also called the House of Abraham - because it was Abraham and his son, Ishmael, who built it. If you download the program for Google Earth, zoom in on the city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia. If you look around Mecca, you will find a large patch of white - a big area. In the middle of that area you will see a cube-shaped building. That is the Kaabah. The big white area around it is the Grand Mosque - capable of holding over two million worshippers at one time.
