The holiest site of Islam is Kaaba; the oldest God house on earth. It is located in Makkah (or Mecca) in Saudi Arabia. The bases of Kaaba had been raised up by prophet Abraham (or Ibrahim); peace be upon him. The Kaaba is surrounded by the Grand Mosque (or AlMasjid AlHaram) that could accommodate up to 4 million Muslim prayers. Muslims; during pilgrimage (or Hajj) and Omra; are required to move around Kaaba seven times as ritual worship.
