Kaaba Sharif - Framed & Mounted Print

Description: Vintage style watercolour of the holy Kaaba.

The story: The Qur'an contains several verses regarding the origin of the Kaaba. It states that the Kaaba was the first House of Worship for mankind, and that it was built by Ibrahim and Ismail on Allah's instructions. Verily, the first House (of worship) appointed for mankind was that at Bakkah (Makkah), full of blessing, and a guidance for mankind (Quran: Surah Al Imran, Ayah 96).

Behold! We gave the site, to Ibrahim, of the (Sacred) House, (saying): "Associate not anything (in worship) with Me; and sanctify My House for those who compass it round, or stand up, or bow, or prostrate themselves therein in prayer(Quran, Surah Al Hajj, Ayah 26). And remember Ibrahim and Ismail raised the foundations of the House (With this prayer): "Our Lord! Accept (this service) from us: For Thou art the All-Hearing, the All-knowing (Quran, Al-Baqarah, Ayah 127).
