    Kaaba (Arabic الكعبة) is a building close to the form of a cube located in the middle of the Grand Mosque in Mecca. This building is a monument sacred to the Muslims (Muslims). Is a building which is used as a benchmark or direction of Qiblah direction for this benchmark the nature of worship for Muslims around the world like a prayer. In addition, a building must be visited or diziarahi during Hajj and Umrah seasons.
    Historian, narrator and others have different opinions about who has built the Kaaba. Some opinions say that there are angels, Adam and Seth. [1] Dimension ka'ba structure measuring approximately 13.10 m high with a side of 11.03 m 12.62 m times Also called Baitallah name.

    Kaaba is also called Bayt al `Atiq (Arabic: بيت ال عتيق, The Old House) is a renovated building at the time of Prophet Ibrahim and Prophet Ismail Ismail after the Prophet was in Mecca on the orders of Allah. In the Qur'an, sura 14:37 implies that the Kaaba shrine site had been there when the Prophet Abraham and Hagar put Ishmael babies in those locations.
    At the time of Prophet Muhammad was 30 years old (around 600 AD and has not appointed a messenger at the time), this building was renovated again due to flash floods that hit the city of Mecca at that time. Had been a dispute between the chiefs or tribes when to put the Black Stone back to the stone but due to settlement of the dispute Muhammad successfully settled without bloodshed and without the aggrieved party.
    At the time of Muhammad before the Prophet was appointed to move to the city of Medina. Kaba environment filled with statues of the manifestation of God of the Arabs when the darkness of thought (jahilliyah) but as the teachings of Prophet Abraham who were the ancestors of the Arabs and the Jews and the teachings of Prophet Moses to the Jews, God should not be worshiped by likened to objects or any creature and has no middlemen to worship and not a single one like it and do not have children and not begotten (Surat Al-Ikhlas in the Qur'an). Kaba eventually cleared from the statue of the Prophet Muhammad mebebaskan Mecca without bloodshed.
    Later this building managed and maintained by the Children Sya'ibah as the key holder and administrative ka'ba and pilgrimage services is governed by both government administration Caliph Abu Bakr, Umar ibn Khattab, Uthman ibn Affan, Ali ibn Abi Talib, Abu Sufyan ibn Muawwiyah, Dynasty Ummayyah, Abbasid dynasty, the Ottoman Turkish dynasty, until now the government of the kingdom of Saudi Arabia who acted as servants of the two holy cities, Mecca and Medina.

    Kaaba building initially consisted of two doors and the location of the door ka'ba located above ground, not like now that the door is slightly higher as the foundation that made the Prophet Ibrahim and Prophet Ismail. But when the renovation Kaaba from the severe floods at the time of Muhammad's 30-year-old before being an apostle, because renovating ka'ba as sacred buildings must use the lawful property and clean, so that at the moment there is a shortage cost. So ka'ba building made only one door and no part ka'ba not included in the building Hijir ka'ba Ismail called the half-circle marked on one side ka'ba. At that height the door was made prominent location so that only the Quraysh tribe could enter it. Because of the Quraysh tribe or tribes who are glorified by the Arabs.
    Because his people just walked in Islam, the Prophet Muhammad thought better to renovate the back ka'ba that is written in a hadith saying he: "If my people are not just left infidelity, will I send down the door and made ka'ba two doors and entered Hijir Ismail into the Kaaba, "as the foundation that was built by Prophet Ibrahim.
    When the Abdurrahman ibn Zubayr ruled the Hijaz region, the building was built as the words of the Prophet Muhammad Ibrahim foundation. However, due to the war by Abdul Malik bin Marwan, the ruler of Sham (Syria, Jordan and Lebanon today) and Palestine, there is a fire in the Kaaba from a bullet launcher (onager) owned Sham troops. Thus Abdul Malik ibn Marwan which later became the caliph, to renovate the building back to the Kaaba on the renovation of the Prophet Muhammad at the age of 30 years is not based on the foundation that built the Prophet Abraham. Historically the Kaaba several times suffered damage as a result of the war and the age of the building.
    When the reign of Caliph Harun Al Rashid in the Abbasid caliphate, the caliph plans to renovate the back ka'ba appropriate foundation of Prophet Ibrahim and Prophet Muhammad wanted. but soon prevented by one of the leading scholars of Imam Malik, because it was feared that the shrine would be dismantled pairs event the authorities after him. So the Kaaba building renovations stay within the Caliph Abdul Malik bin Marwan until now.
