'''Mecca''' is a holy city of Islam in modern-day Saudi Arabia. It contains the Ka'bah and the ''Al-Masjid al-Haram''. The city is associated with [[Хадж|Hajj]] and Umrah, and the Kaaba is the place of worship for Muslims during the time of prayer. That direction is called the cube. The Quran commands to address the Al-Masjid al-Aqsa.<ref>[[IslamD:Коран/2:144|Коран, 2:144 — полный аят]].</ref>

== What is Kaaba? ==
The Kaaba is a shrine in the center of the Preserved Mosque.[[The Quran|The Qur 'an]] says that Abraham and Ishmael laid the foundation of the House and asked Allah to accept their labor.<ref>[[IslamD:Коран/2:127|Коран, 2:127 — полный аят]].</ref> In practical pilgrimage, circumnavigation around the Kaaba is called a taof.

'''Muslims worship God, not the Kaaba.''' The general direction of prayer unites worshippers in different parts of the world and expresses a communion of worship.

== Three connections for a beginner ==

# '''Mecca and prayer:''' here is the Kaaba, which defines the Qibla.
# '''Mecca and pilgrimage:''' they are sent here for the Hajj and Umrah.
# '''Mecca and the idolaters:''' the sanctuary is associated with the worship of one God and the legacy of Abraham.

The Quran calls the House in Bacca a blessed place and a guide for the worlds.<ref>[[IslamD:Коран/3:96|Коран, 3:96 — полный аят]].</ref> Studying the [[Таухид|Tauhid]] helps us understand the meaning of these rituals.
