Answer 4

People were making trips to Mecca before Islam. Mohammed destroyed all the "gods' that were there to establish the ONE God as Supreme.

Officially Hajj started when the prophet Muhammad performed the first Hajj, thereby showing the Muslims what and how to do it.

Before this the area around the Kaba was more a market place for anyone.

Answer 5
