According to Islamic tradition, Abram (known as Ibrahim in Arabic) and his son Ishmael (Ismail) built the Kaaba as a house of worship dedicated to the one God, Allah. This act was part of their mission to establish monotheism and serve as a place for people to gather for prayer and reflection. The Kaaba is considered the holiest site in Islam, symbolizing the unity of believers and serving as a focal point for Muslim prayers.
