The Ka'bah is the first stage of the Hajj pilgrimage. It is a gigantic cube that the Muslims believe was built by Adam & Eve, then destroyed and rebuilt by Abraham and his son. It is known that some people kiss the stone cube as Prophet Muhammad was had done. It is too be circled seven times and it was the first place that worshiped their God-Allah. It is a very important place for Muslims because they want to be close to Allah and it shows their faith in him. The four corners of the Ka'bah roughly face the four points on a compass (N-North, E-East, S-South, and W-West). The cube is covered by a large black cloth and is sometimes know as 'The Black Stone'. Millions of people visit this each year. Inside the Ka'bah there is known to be:...

· Two pillars (others report 3 pillars)

· A table on the side to put items like perfume

· two lantern-type lamps hanging from the ceiling

· The space can accommodate about 50 people

· No electric lights

· Walls and floors made of marble

· No windows

· Only one door

· The upper inside walls of the Ka'bah were covered with some kind of curtain with the Kalima written on it.
