But\u00a0<\/span>what's in the Kaaba?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>It is true that this question can cross the mind of a Muslim, but very few know the answer. We will try to answer it in this article.<\/p>\n

What's in the Kaaba? A well-kept secret<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Located at the centre of the sacred Al Haram mosque, the Kaaba plays a vital role for believers. It is the qibla for the 5 daily prayers.<\/p>\n

It is also one of the emblematic places where pilgrims gather during the hadj<\/strong><\/a>. More specifically, during the tawaf that takes place around it. Despite this exclusive place, few people have had the privilege of entering\u00a0<\/span>inside the Sacred House<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, a few rare photos and videos allow us to detail\u00a0<\/span>what's inside.\u00a0<\/strong>First of all, it has to be said that the interior of the Sacred House has been maintained by various rulers throughout history.<\/p>\n

Plaques commemorating the renovation work of each of them line the walls. In addition, we know that it is made up of a single piece with 3 supporting pillars.<\/p>\n

The walls and floors are covered in marble. And it would appear that numerous gold and silver lamps hang from the ceiling.<\/p>\n

There would also be a white marble cupboard inside. Not least to store the oils and perfumes used to clean it.<\/p>\n

Among other features, there is an internal door covered in gold and silver called \"the door of repentance\". This door opens onto a staircase leading to the roof.<\/p>\n

What's in the Kaaba? Back to the past<\/strong><\/h2>\n

To begin with, Allah says: \"And when We indicated for Ibrahim the place of the House (saying to him) do not associate anything with Me...\". (Sura Al Hajj verse 26).<\/p>\n

And He said: \"And when Ibrahim and Ism\u00e2'\u00eel were building the foundations of the House. O our Lord, accept this from us! For Thou art the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing\" (verse 127 of Al Baqara).<\/p>\n

Moreover, we learn in verses 96-97 of Sura Al Baqara the purpose of this construction. In other words, Allah says: \"The first House that has been built for people is the blessed Bakka. And a good direction for the universe\".<\/p>\n

Before the advent of Islam, the Kaaba contained idols worshipped by the Quraich (inhabitants of Mecca). In particular, their main idol Hubal, which stood in the centre of the Kaaba.<\/p>\n

That's why people came here to leave their offerings and gifts.<\/p>\n

Finally, during the conquest of Mecca, the Messenger of Allah \ufdfa ordered that all idols be destroyed\u00a0<\/span>in the Kaaba<\/strong>. But also all those around her.<\/p>\n

An honour reserved for an elite<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In other words, until now, being able to enter\u00a0<\/span>in the Sacred Houses<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>is reserved for a privileged few. King Salman of Saudi Arabia had this honour at the end of May 2023.<\/p>\n

Accompanied by Sheikh As-Sudais and several other people, he prayed inside the Kaaba itself. He then took part in cleaning the Kaaba.<\/p>\n
