Hundreds of millions of Muslims turn their faces towards this sacred, blessed point on earth at least five times a day. The Ka`bah, the most remarkable symbol of Islam, is the qiblah, the direction to which every Muslim should face during prayers and around which millions gather during the rituals of Hajj. The Ka`bah and Al-Masjid Al-Haram enjoy a grand status long before the advent of Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) as the first place on earth dedicated for worshiping Allah.
