    Mount Jūdī (the mountain upon which Prophet Nūḥ’s عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم ark landed), and

    Mount Ḥirāˈ, which is in Makkah.[1]

    The scholars state:

    The holy KaꜤbah is the direction in which people pray, and there are five obligatory prayers. Therefore, the holy KaꜤbah was built from the stone of five different mountains.[2]

    Facts about the holy KaꜤbah

    Dear Islamic brothers! The blessed KaꜤbah is the house of Allah Almighty, and its status is magnificent. Here are some interesting facts about it.

    The scholars state:

    *    The holy KaꜤbah is known by this name because it is shaped like a cube.

    *    The word KaꜤbah can also mean to be elevated. In previous eras, the people honoured the blessed KaꜤbah by not building their homes taller than it. Therefore, the holy KaꜤbah was given this name because it was above everything else in its vicinity.[3]

    *    TubbaꜤ Ḥimyarī was the first person to cover the holy KaꜤbah with a sheet. After that, placing a sheet upon the blessed KaꜤbah became a custom.

    *    The colour of the sheet was not always black. The colours changed in different eras, but now black sheets are used.
