What is The history of masjid al-haram?
The beginnings of the Holy Mosque were established under Caliph Omar Ibn al-Khattab (634-644). The caliph ordered the demolition of houses surrounding the Ka'ba in order to accommodate the growing number of pilgrims, then built a 1.5-meter high wall to form an outdoor prayer area around the shrine. During the reign of Caliph Uthman Ibn Affan (644-656), the prayer area was enlarged and covered with a simple roof supported by wooden columns and arches.
In 692, after Caliph Abdul Malik bin Marwan conquered Mecca from Ibn Zubayr, the building was enlarged and embellished: the outer walls were raised, the ceiling was covered with teak and the capitals were painted in gold. The caliph's son al-Walid (705-715) replaced the wooden columns with marble ones and decorated its arches with mosaics. Abbasid Caliph Abu Ja'far al-Mansur (754-775) added mosaics to the columns, doubled the size of the northern and western wings of the prayer hall and erected the minaret of Bab al-Umra on the northwest corner.
In 777, a major rebuild took place under Abbasid Caliph al-Mahdi (775-785) to accommodate the growing number of pilgrims. The existing mosque was demolished along with more houses in the area and a new mosque was constructed in its place. Measuring 196 by 142 meters, it was built on a grid plan with marble columns from Egypt and Syria decorated with gilt teak wooden inlay. Al-Mahdi's mosque also included three minarets, placed above Bab al-Salam, Bab Ali and Bab al-Wadi.
In 1399, the northern part of the mosque was severely damaged by fire and the remaining sections suffered from water damage. The mosque was subsequently rebuilt by Mamluk Sultan Nasir Faraj bin Barquq (1399-1405). The damaged marble columns were replaced with stone columns quarried from the nearby Hijaz region and the roof was patched with local wood from the Ta'if Mountains.
In 1571, Ottoman Sultan Selim II (1566-1574) commissioned the court architect Sinan to renovate the Holy Mosque. It is from this renovation that thepresent building mostly dates. Sinan replaced the flat roof of the prayer hall with domes, supported by the addition of new columns from the nearby Shams Mountains. The interior of the domes were decorated with gilded calligraphy.
Due to damaging rains in 1611, the mosque was once again restored under Sultan Murad IV (1623-1640) in 1629. It received a new stone arcade with slender columns and inscriptive medallions between the arches. The floor tiles around the Ka'ba were replaced with new colored marble tiles and the mosque was given seven minarets.
Between 1955 and 1973, the first of many extensions under the Saudi kings was commissioned by King Abdul Aziz (1932-1953). As part of the renovations, the Mas'a gallery connecting the Rock of al-Safa' with al-Marwah was extended to reach the mosque. The two-story extension was built of reinforced concrete arches clad in carved marble and artificial stone, which communicates with the street and the mosque via eleven doors.
A major extension sponsored by King Fahd (1982-present) consisted of a new wing and an outdoor prayer area on the southeast side of the mosque. In the two-story wing, air conditioning circulates below the tiled floors and is supplied through ventilation grids located at the base of each column. The facade of the extension blends in with the previous constructions, with gray marble facing from the Fatimah Mountains and carved white marble bands.
The monumental King Fahd Gate consists of three arches with black and white voussoirs and carved white marble decoration, flanked by two new minarets matching the older ones. The windows are covered with brassmashrabiyya and framed with carved bands of white marble. The minor gates have green-tiled sloped canopies

Is beating women haram in Islam?
In Islam, neither can a husband beat his wife nor can a wife beat her husband. It is mentioned in Quran that a husband may lightly tap his wife in case of conflict as a visual motion of disagreement; one where he cannot extend his hand back using his elbow. (Must use his wrist to tap). It is well documented that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH); the human model for all Muslims; never tried to beat any of his wives even talked to them harshly.
Thus the husband is commanded in Quran to treat her kindly and with forgiveness and honor even if he may hate her.
What does halal mean to Muslims?
Muslims follow a set of guidelines as the religion of Islam offers a complete code of conduct for humanity offering eternal solutions to the problems of mankind. Similarly there as certain restrictions in the religion that Muslims must abide by. The restriction regarding certain food eating or drinking and certain actions and deeds that are clearly forbidden in Islam are known as Haram, which is the opposite to Halal. Halal there by means everything that is allowed and permissible in the religion for consuming, and other than that for committing, for practicing, saying etc. Because Allah as believed by Muslims is forever watching over our deeds and we will be held accountable for everything on the day of resurrection.
Is it mlm business is haram in Islam?
This business scheme resembles a chain of brokers; whereby each broker employs others and gets a certain commission, and so forth.
In general, being a broker is permissible, with or without compensation, but it may be forbidden if it leads to any violation of the general purposes of Islamic Law.
One such case is the ruling in Islamic Law that prohibits a person from a city going out and doing business with incoming merchants before they reach the city. Some scholars pointed out that the reason for the prohibition is that the city dweller is acting as a broker in order to raise the prices of the commodities for the cities inhabitants, whereas one of Islam's aims to ease people's life and lower their costs of living.
Therefore, it is not preferable to have an excessive number of brokers and middlemen, because their combined profits would translate into an increase in final price to the consumer.
If prices are not aversely affected by this increase in brokers, then such a selling scheme is lawful.
And Allah knows best.
Can Christians eat food blessed in Allah's name or halal food?
Yes. Except for a few sects, most Christians have no religious restrictions on what they eat.
Paul the apostle gave the example of meats offered to idols. If you truly believe in God then the idols are of no consequence, since they have no power to either bless or curse food. So there is a liberty in a belief in Christ. However, the problem is when those who are weak in the faith are adversely impacted by someone's dietary choices. In that case, you should abstain from eating what is causing doubts in the mind of a brother or sister in the faith. The reason to abstain is not due to the food itself being bad nor any religious encumbrances, but the fact it may threaten someone's faith.

Why is gambling haram for Muslim?
Yes, Gambling is sinful in Islam.
Work in Islam is very much respectable and when performed honestly and properly it is ranked and rewarded as worship to God. However, gambling is getting money or losing money by the gambler without work. That is why it is sinful in Islam.
Losing money in gambling will get you not happy and affecting negatively your life and your mode. On the other hand, earning money by gambling will make you temporarily happy and will persuade you to play more to lose again money.
Gambling also creates hate and enmity among gamblers and wastes time that should be devoted to useful activities.
Quran says (meaning English translation):
" ... Intoxicants and gambling,..., are an abomination of Satan's handiwork: Eschew such (abomination), that you may prosper Satan's plan is (but) to excite enmity and hatred between you with intoxicants and gambling and to hinder you from the remembrance of God (Allah) and from prayer: Will you not then abstain?"[Quran, chapter 5, verse 90-91]Even if playing free for fun, and not or for real money, it is also prohibited for two reasons:
it may persuade one later to play with real money
it is waste of time that could be used in something funny also but more useful intellectually, socially, or physically.
However, God is love and is merciful to the sinner. He forgives him if he admits that he made a sin, repents, and intend not to make the sin again.
God is always accepting you with love if you repent and follow again his right path.

Is it haram to see a girl with her hijab off?
you have to wear hijab when you are big girl stuff
So for the person who wrote above me that's a false statement. A Muslim girl can begin to wear the hijab any age she wants (preferably before she gets her menstruation cycle) I wore mine when I entered kindergarten. Once a girl hits puberty she should be wearing it but most don't follow that. It is haram to see a girls hair or to see a girl with her hijab off. The really young (3-8) can see the girl's hair but once the male hits puberty he may NOT see her hair. Only he brother, father, and uncle can see her hair. Any female can see a girl's hair but males no. My cousins who are older than me may not see my hair once I get puberty it doesn't matter if he's one year or 1/2 a year older than me.
