Sira Places 1

Mecca .. Hz. The city that has received the prayer of Abraham (peace be upon him) is the mother of cities." And when Abraham said, "O my Lord! Make this city safe and keep me and my sons away from worshiping idols." And when Abraham said, 'O Lord! Make this city a safe city. Provide sustenance for your people with all kinds of fruits, those who believe in Allah and the Last Day.' And Allah provides sustenance even for those who disbelieve for a short time (in a temporary short life); Then I will force him to suffer the torment of hell. What an evil destination that is! ' he said. " " Our Lord! I settled some of my children in a barren valley next to your holy house (Kaaba). Our Lord! (I did this) so that they could perform the prayer correctly. Make the hearts of some people incline towards them, provide them with the fruits, hopefully they will be grateful." It is known that over time, the Kaaba was destroyed down to its foundation. While the Prophet Abraham was building it for the second time with the help of his son, the Maqam-i Ibrahim was able to replace the stones in the higher parts of the Kaaba. The last known construction of the Kaaba of that period was carried out by the Amalikans and Jurhumis. It was built by the Quraysh when he was 35 years old. Our Prophet acted as a referee in placing the Hacer-ul Esved stone in its place. During the caliphate of Hazrat Abdullah b. He, the first child of the Hijra, had it rebuilt by including the Hijr-i Ismail in the building (M:684). Again, in this repair, it was right at the door between Rukn-u Yemeni and Rukn-u Iraqi. The door (müstacer) in the place opposite it was reopened. However, this situation did not last long and with the approval of Caliph Abdülmelik b. Mervan, it was restored to its former state and Hijr-i İsmail-hatim was left outside the Kaaba. The Kaaba has survived to this day and has been repaired and maintained from time to time due to floods and fires. It is the most revered and respected among the communities that hold the caliphate. He received the honor from the Ottoman Sultans.
