Mecca (or Makkah) is the place of Kaaba surrounded by AlMasjis Alharam (the Grand Mosque); the holiest place for Muslims. Makkah also is also the place of prophet Muhammad birth and the first place where Quran was revealed by God to prophet Muhammad (PBUH) through the angel Gabriel (Jibril)
Yes. The three monotheistic religions (of which Arabs and Israelis are mainly composed) all venerate the city.
Mecca is the birthplace of the Prophet Mohammad. As such, it is the most holy city in Islam. It is located in western Saudi Arabia and is a city open only to Muslims. Most religious historians view Islam as having been founded in 622 CE by Mohammad the Prophet (circa 570 to 632 CE) in Mecca, when the angel Jibrael (Gabriel) read the first revelation to Muhammad. (Muhammad and Mohammad are alternate spellings for his name.) The Saudi government considers it a sacred duty to safeguard two of the greatest shrines of Islam, the holy mosques located in the cities of Mecca and Medina. Travel to Mecca and Medina is forbidden to non-Muslims. Muslims throughout the world turn to Mecca five times a day for prayer.
Muhammad and the Muslim Army soundly defeated the Meccan Army led by Abu Sufyan in 630 C.E. outside of the city limits of Mecca. After this victory, Muhammad and the Muslims marched triumphant into the streets of Mecca and proclaimed control of the city with no further opposition.
