Kaaba is a Qibla i.e. a citation Muslims face during their prayers. It is important to note that though Muslims face a Kaaba during prayers, they do not ceremony a Kaaba. Muslims ceremony as well as bow to nothing though Allah. It is referred to in Surah Baqarah: We see a turning of thy face (for guidance) to a heavens: right away shall We spin thee to a Qiblah that shall greatfully thee. Turn afterwards thy face in a citation of a Sacred Mosque: wherever ye are, spin your faces in that direction.
1. Islam believes in fostering unity [Al-Qur'an 2:144] For instance, if Muslims want to suggest Salaah (Prayer), it is possible that a little might wish to face north, whilst a little might wish to face south. In sequence to unite Muslims in their ceremony of a One True God, Muslims, wherever they might be, have been asked to face in usually a single citation i.e. towards a Kaaba. If a little Muslims live towards a west of a Kaaba they face a east. Similarly if they live towards a easterly of a Kaaba they face a west.
2. Kaaba is during a Centre of a World Map The Muslims were a initial people to pull a map of a world. They drew a map with a south facing upwards as well as north downwards. The Kaaba was during a centre. Later, western cartographers drew a map upside down with a north facing upwards as well as south downwards. Yet, Alhamdullilah a Kaaba is during a centre of a universe map.
3. Tawaf around Kaaba for indicating a single God When a Muslims go to Masjid-e-Haram in Makkah, they perform tawaf or circumambulation turn a Kaaba. This act symbolizes a belief as well as ceremony of One God, since, just as every round has a single centre, so also there is usually a single Allah (swt) estimable of worship.
4. Hadith of Umar (may Allah be grati! fied wit h him) Regarding a black stone, hajr-e-aswad, there is a! hadith (tradition), attributed to a shining companion of a Prophet Muhammed (pbuh), Umar (may Allah be gratified with him). According to Sahih Bukhari, Volume 2, book of Hajj, section 56, H.No. 675. Umar (may Allah be gratified with him) said, we know that we have been a mill as well as can neither benefit nor harm. Had we not seen a Prophet (pbuh) in contact with (and kissing) you, we would never have overwhelmed (and kissed) you.
5. People stood upon Kaaba as well as gave a adhaan At a time of a Prophet, people even stood upon a Kaaba as well as gave a adhaan or a call to prayer. One might ask those who allege that Muslims ceremony a Kaaba; that statue worshipper stands upon a statue he worships?
