  • Amjad said:

    huh? are you serious? people can actually enter the Ka’ba ? :-s

  • DA said:

    @Amjed: Yep the Holy Kaaba is opened twice a year for cleaning, and many international dignitaries are allowed inside for the cleaning. The keys to Holy Kabaa are kept with a local tribe called Bani Shaybat. This practce takes place before Ramadaan and again before Hajj.

  • eshda3wa said:

    Amjad
    only the king of KSA

    ayyam the prophet (PBUH)
    the kabba was open for anyone to enter
    its the house of GoD
    you dont get vip tickets
    we are all created equal

    but now they have it closed off
    i think mostly for security reasons
    since itll probably result in a stampeed and everyone
    would be crushed

  • Feruza said:

    Waaw ! I am so happy and thrilled. I feel as if I am in there now. I never thought that I will ever see the photograph of the inside of the Kaaba.

  • Feruza said:

  • munir said:

    In Wikipedia page about ‘Kaaba’, there is a painting of Prophet Muhammed (PBUH)lifting the black stone. As muslims we should demand the Wikipedia to remove that painting. Kindly do the initiative…

  • munir said:

    plz sign the petition made to wikipedia authority to remove the picture of Prophet Muhammed (PBUH)from their site

  • Owais said:

    Alhamdolillah I have been inside Kaabah Shareef. I was in Jeddah and my friends told me they were doing some repair inside Kaabah. So I tried my luck and went to Makkah early in the morning. I was fortunate to be able to go inside. I prayed in all direction as you can pray in any direction inside Kaabah. There was a wooden box and if I remember it correctly, the floor was of stone. But in the recent pictures, I see that the inside is much changed. I had gone there in late seventies.

  • yoonus said:

    assalamu alaikum,

  • adely said:

    first of all, why god need a house? does god stay in the house? in addition, more than 5 times kaaba was reconstructed due to flooding and stormy weather. If its Allah’s house, can Allah protected his own house? Why would allah allowed his own house destroyed?

  • GI Joe said:

    Thanks for the pics of the Kaaba. It is a remarkable building to say the least. But to you hate mongerers trying to get that picture taken off of Wikipedia – I understand it is forbidden FOR YOU. Not for me, and I’ll look at whichever pictures I please. Don’t the words taste like a lie in your mouth to say that Wikipedia hosting that image has hurt “trillions of Muslims worldwide”? If that were true, it would not be necessary to link to the article in question would it? And, if this is such an important issue, do you really think that 1. It is necessary to lie since you undoubtedly have Allah’s help 2. A good idea to lie since Allah is certainly watching you and knows you are lying 3. A good idea to represent your faith to the international community as one of liars and people pretending offense? Most of these people wouldn’t even have seen that picture if YOU hadn’t told them to go see it. I would humbly submit that your actions do far more harm to Islam than Wikipedia’s.

  • imran khan said:

    salam brothers and sister
    this is very nice picture which we had seen
    but i think its not ok to give the picture of inside kaaba on website bcoz its our precious place so we have to strict about it
    bcoz many of peoples are dont know what is ther in kaaba
    if they knows they lost their crazy ness or excitement about kaaba
    every thing is looking good in hijab or parda or nakab
    so dnt mis use it
    plzzzzzzzzzzzz
    MAY ALLAH BLESS US ALL
    AND GIVE HIDAYATH

  • Razaul Hassan (New Delhi) said:

    Salam everyone,

    I think the pics are partly true.Specially the second pic(inside).But if you increase the resolution of first and third pic you will see they have been edited.

    My father bought a video from Saudi which shows that the King of Saudi going inside Kaaba.I am not against anyone but I think Islam is followed and protected by common people like us not by any Royal Blood.The King as the right because they control Saudi Arabia.

    First pic showing Musharaf is fake,you can see it if u increase the resolution after saving the pic.

    Does anyone know that even Our Dearest Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) was denied for the key of Kaaba? But after the victory of Mecca, Our Dearest Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) took the key from the same family and after prayer,HE returned it to them.That family later on reverted to Islam.

    May Allaha guide and help us in the age of darkness when Islam is seen with so much of hate.

    Allaha Hafiz

    i want able to say any thing as i saw the inner view of th kaaba. i cant explain my feelings.i just want to say that every muslim in the world must have the equal right to visit it. this VIP culture serves as the barrier to enter islam. islam preaches the equality.

  • zeba said:

    When I first saw the picture I was moved to tears ,but I am deeply saddened by the thoughtlessness & materialistic attitude of the Saudi Royals who no doubt have ‘renovated’the interiors.WHAT WERE THEY THINKING????
    Brother Owais is correct in his observation. Many ‘Misguided’& STUPID decisions have been taken by the Royals who have no sense of history but only a sense of arrogance coz of their huge Wealth!!Uggggggh!!
    First they demolish the simple & humble house of our prophet which was close to the Kaaba during expansions in 1992-93 to install bathrooms??????
    Next,the interiors of the HOLY KAABA had to be renovated to look like modern day 5 STAR ????
    WHY CANT THEY JUST LEAVE THE PROPHETS(pbuh)& OTHER HISTORICAL THINGS OF ISLAMIC IMPORTANCE AS THEY ARE UNTOUCHED & UNCHANGED(as they are Ignorant about a thing called PRESERVATION of Cultural Heritage.The life of all prophets was of hardship,difficulty & SIMPLICITY.
    Devotion is in SAFEGUARDING & NOT DISTORTING!!!!

    Asalamulaikum to All Muslims where ever they are:
    This a great opportunity that I have saw picture of Kaaba inside I love Kaaba because we all are Muslim and trying to go to Haj from different places in the world and spend a lot of money whether are a poor or rich but don’t care about money because our aim is Haj, Kaaba. Of curse we all go to Haj but can not get opportunity to get inside Kaaba Sharif now I am pretty much glad that I saw Kaaba inside and when I am viewing this pictures I think I am dreaming and I wish to go there Allah guide us on good way Aimain.

    Subhan Allah, it is very nice, thanks for publishing this pictures and let people watch inside the holy kaaba.

  • Haider said:

    Masshallah… Well its not doubt Makkah and Medinah is in the heart of every muslim. I apeal to Saudi Govt. Holy Kabba and Masjid Nabwi these belongs to God, why they give special treatment to state presidents. If he is president or some VIP personality he is in his country not in Makkah and Medinah. He is indivdual like any other. There should not be any protocol in these Holy places. All are equal there.. stop this act which is not related to our Sunnah also..

  • AGM said:

    ASSALAAMU ALAIKOM…….

    thank you

  • Shabana said:

    Got the picture by email and questioned its authenticity.. Distinctly recall being told: no one sees inside of the Kaaba? Naively believed the cleaners go in ‘blindfolded’ to sweep the inside! Expectations had led me to believe that the inside would be a simple affair.. bricks and mortar no less. Interior resembles a hotel lobby thanks to renovations. Still have mixed emotions but remain saddened by this..

  • RIdhwan said:

    askm to all, i was told that if a you do go inside and look up you will see heaven and look down you will see hell. and only this applies to the people who have good iman. is that true. to see the inside is just a wonderfull thing to see. I was told there is only 3 pillars inside and they were correct. I have done my Hajj there and Alhamdulillah everything went perfect. Wish to go there again someday.

    my grandfather entered the Kabbah once and he’s no king or prince. The Saudi family shouldn’t be allowed to get inside, they are wahabies, they believe that God is like the creation, they say that God has a body!! Allah exist without a place, he is not a body, he does not resemble the human beings, he exists without a place, he created the place before it was not existing and after he created it he is now as he was before, without a place!!! this is the creed of the muslims, the creed of our Prophet peace be upon him.

    @adely

    No God Doesn’t need a house . God is everywhere . Kabbah is the central point as to unite Muslims no matter where they live to worship in one Language towards One direction to One God . Kabbah symbolize Muslim unity that no matter where u r whether in North ,,south , East ,west U worship One God . No matter what color u r . No matter what Language u speak u r Creation of One God . Previously Muslims use to pray in the direction of Jerusalem. However Muhammad peace be upon wished that Kabbah should be made the direction of Muslim central point . God Listened to his prayers and Direction was shifted to KAbbah . At this the non believers idol worshippers, Christians, Jews etc laughed at Muslims and said that Muslims all previous prayers are wasted as they were praying in the wrong direction . Allah gave them reply with the following Words . in the Quran:

    {The fools among the people will say: “What has turned them from the Qiblah(direction.) to which they were used?” Say: To Allah belong both East and West; He guides whom He pleases to a Way that is straight. } (Al-Baqarah 2:143)

    Pilgrimage of Ezekiel to Mecca:
    http://www.answering-christianity.com/ezekiel_pilgrimage.htm

    Makkah In The Scriptures

    The Qur’ân talks about Bakkah (the older name of Makkah) being the first house of worship appointed for mankind. It also addresses this place as Umm ul-Qurâ i.e., Mother of the Settlements.
    Verily, the first House (of worship) appointed for mankind was that at Bakkah (Makkah), full of blessing, and a guidance for Al-’Alamin (the mankind and jinns). In it are manifest signs (for example), the Maqam (place) of Ibrahim (Abraham); whosoever enters it, he attains security. And Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah) to the House (Ka’bah) is a duty that mankind owes to Allah, those who can afford the expenses (for one’s conveyance, provision and residence); and whoever disbelieves [i.e. denies Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah), then he is a disbeliever of Allah], then Allah stands not in need of any of the ‘Alamin (mankind and jinns). [Qur'ân 3:96-97]

    The Bible also mentions about the valley of Baca in connection with the pilgrimage. Below is the quote from Psalms 84 (NIV):

    1 How lovely is your dwelling place, O LORD Almighty!

    2 My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.

    3 Even the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young– a place near your altar, O LORD Almighty, my King and my God.

    4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house; they are ever praising you.

    5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on pilgrimage.

    6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca, they make it a place of springs; the autumn rains also cover it with pools.

    7 They go from strength to strength, till each appears before God in Zion.
    8 Hear my prayer, O LORD God Almighty; listen to me, O God of Jacob.

    9 Look upon our shield, O God; look with favor on your anointed one.

    10 Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.

    11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless.

    12 O LORD Almighty, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
    The interpretation of the valley of Baca in the The Jewish Encylopedia is quite interesting, though it does not provide a complete evidence and leaves the reader with a suggestion. Below is the full quote.

    Baca, The Valley Of: A valley mentioned in Psalms LXXXIV:7. Since it is there said that pilgrims transform the valley into a land of wells, an old translators gave to Baca, the meaning of a “valley of weeping”; but it signifies rather any valley lacking water. Support for this latter view is to be found in II Samuel V:23 et seq.; I Chronicles XIV:14 et seq., in which the plural form of the same word designates a tree similar to the balsam tree; and it was supposed that a dry valley could be named after this tree. Konig takes Baca from the Arabian Baka’a, and translates it “lack of streams”. The Psalmist apparently has in mind a particular valley whose natural condition led him to adopt its name.[5]

    The translation of Arabian Baka’a as “lack of stream” seems to throw some light on the nature of the valley before the appearance of the stream of Zam-Zam near Ka’bah which was a dry place with no vegetation whatsoever.

    The Anchor Bible Dictionary does not throw any light on it, albeit, there are some suggestions in it too like the The Jewish Encylopedia. Below is the full quote.

    Baca, The Valley Of (PLACE): [Hebrew 'emeq habakka'], The valley of Baca (Psalms 84:1) is either a historical place name or a symbolical expression for “deep sorrow”. The first part of Psalms 84:6 seems to mean that by “passing through the experience of deep sorrow, righteous ones can make it the source of life.” The Septuagint translated the phrase into Greek as “the valley of weeping”. The word ‘emeq “valley” has the root meaning of “deep”, so the expression may mean “deep sorrow”.

    However, some have considered it as the “valley of the balsam tree” from the same word in plural form found in 2 Samuel 5:24. This is based on the assumption that baka may be a “gum-exuding [weeping] tree”. Another possibility is that the word beka’im (plural of baka) may mean “weeping wall-rocks” in the valley of Rephaim on whose tops David and his troops were waiting for the coming of the Philistine army passing through the valley below (2 Samuel 5:24).

    It seems safe to seek the meaning of baka in relation to the dripping water, since we often find this word in the names related to rivers and wadis, such as Wadi al-Baka in the Sinaitic district and Baca on the wadi in the central Galilee area, W of Meroth. It is also possible to understand beka’im as the place of “weepings” of the Philistine army for their defeat by David. After all these considerations, the expression of “valley of baka” can best be taken as a symbolic expression “weeping” or “deep sorrow” which fits well in the context of Psalms 84:6.[6]

    The interpretation of the valley of Baca as a “the valley of weeping” makes sense because of the distress which Hagar(P) underwent when she was left with Ishmael(P) in the barren desert with no means of living.

    The two interpretations of Baca, viz., “lack of stream” and “the valley of weeping” appears to fit in the context of pilgrimage to Bakkah, the older name of Makkah where the Ka’bah is situated. Ka’bah has been a place of reverence by all Arabians before the Christian era .

    The Khana-e-Khuda, is a place where Muslims turned to as a symbol that they worship Only One God, Allah j.j. and there is one stone in it which has a silver nail on it put by the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) to mark the place of birth of Ali-un-Wali Ullah.

    It was then after his birth when prophet turned to Kabba in the middle of the prayer.

    Now, one might have lot of questions, so find out and read the books.

    Inside the Kaaba :

    There are three pillars inside
    There is a small table on the side to put items like perfume and incense burners.
    There are two lantern-type lamps hanging from a cross beam near the ceiling
    There are no electric lights inside
    The interior walls are clad with marble half-way to the roof.
    The entire floor is of marble except for a small portion which is called “Rukhamat Humra”.
    Tablets with Qur’anic inscriptions are inset in the marble.
    The top part of the walls is covered with a green cloth decorated with gold embroidered Qur’anic verses.
    There are no windows inside
    There is only one door
    The space can accommodate about 50 people
    In the corner called “Ar Rukne Yemeni” there is a place called “Mustajar” from where Fatema Binte Asad had entered to deliver Ali (AS) inside The Kaaba. Ali was, apart from being technically Prophet Mohammed (SA)’s cousin, he was his foster, son-in-law, constant companion and his appointed successor, which is refuted by majority of Muslims. Prophet Mohammed had inserted a silver nail on the red stone to mark Ali’s birthplace; the spot is known as “Rukhamat Hamra”. This is inside Kaa’bah.

    Significants of Kiswa (Kaaba’s Pardah) :

    “KAABA, the house of ALAAH in MEKKAH is covered by a black cloth called “KISWA” which is produced by and chnaged every year disinged by a special factory in MEKKAH.

    brothers we should think twice before sending such emails bcoz:

    it is not permitted to take a pic or shoot inside Kaa’ba. this action is in itself governing away fom the authorization.Shooting without permission may give idea to fellow muslims and non muslims about how casual such a pious place could be taken as. It is because shooting inside seems to be very casual and seems to be withour permission.

    I wrote this points as these pictures might be forwarded to non-muslims too and you never know how they may take it.

    On these points I am writing this to request you that such emails may go to people with what kind of mentality we never know, the pictures are taken very casually and there is huge scope of manipulating these. Had it been authorized information it would be safe to forward and I would have no objections.

    If you agree with my points, the best you can do is request the receivers and sender that dont fwd this email further.

    god created 7 layers of skies and 7 layers of earth.
    we all live under the first layer of the skies.
    at each layer of skies god placed His house.
    god’s house at the first layer of the skies are kaabah (muslim’s kiblah and tawaf place) and the second , third and so on layer are angel’s kiblah and tawaf place.

    god’s knows how to protect His owns.
    but you must know god is the Most Wise in Planning .
    He knows what he decided(letting His house being flooded).
    and one more thing , not all muslims can see inside the kaaba.
    if He floods His own house, more people will see inside the kaaba..

    thank you. sorry for the influent english..

    @zeba – my dear, may be you out of history of the origin of Kaaba. even before the era of our dear prophet (SAW) Kaaba had seen series of changes and that gives the Saudi royals the courage to put it to its best today. Rasul (SAW) after the conquest of Mecca ordered to clean the Kaaba and befitting changes were made even at that time. for me, Kaaba is our pride it need to be kept clean with befitting adornment and alhamdu-lillah these people are their best in doing so.
