The black stoned building in Mecca is called the Kaaba and it is located right beside the miraculous water well.

It was the first house built to worship the One God. Buit by Abraham and his first son Ishmael, who became the father of the Arabs.

"God was with the lad; and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness(of Arabia), and became an archer." --- Genesis 2:20

The Kaaba is the most holiest Semitic spot on the earth and all Muslims face that direction in a united belief in the God of Abraham.

Whether the building is there or not, the direction of Mecca is the "Qibla" for all Muslims.

Mecca is the spot where God sent Hagar and her suckling child to permanently live….. 14 years before the birth of Isaac.

"..putting [it] on her shoulder, along with the child." --- Genesis 21:14

"and she cast the infant under one of the shrubs." --- Genesis 21:15

“Do not be afraid; God has heard the boy crying as he lies there. Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand, for I will make him into a great nation.” --- Genesis 21:17-18

Gods plan was to save the Ishmaelites from the disasters that were to befall the inhabitants of Jerusalem and prepare them to host the Final Prophet who would be most praiseworthy. They would be a people who would never be conquered or Hellenized. A people who would fight like wild donkeys before ever submitting. The perfect people to entrust with a divine message.

Nearby is the miraculous water well given to Hagar and the infant Ishmael.

An angel was sent down and with his wing he scooped the earth and a water well appeared by the command of God.

Muslims drink from this blessed water well and perform prayers in the holiest of holy places built by Abraham.

Unlike Judaism, women are allowed to pray equally as men in the Islamic Holy of Holies.

Mohammed was the "Moses" for the Arabs and God sent down the final Law and Revelation through him.

5 times a day you will hear the call to Prayer from the mountain tops......


“Let the wilderness of and the cities therof lift up their voice, the villages that Ke’dar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains.” (Isaiah 42:11).

. Ishmael dwelt in the wilderness of “Paran”(Gen.21:21) He beget twelve sons one of whom was named “Kedar”. (Gen.25:13)

I would never be allowed to drink from this spring. I am a woman, and therefore not allowed to get that close to the kabba. Furthermore, I am a Christian, and therefore not allowed to get into Mecca (assuming I would make the trip, which I wouldn't!)!

BTW, Hagar and Ishmael were sent away by Abraham and Sarah AFTER Isaac was WEANED, not before he was born! You have your timeline messed up!

"....And when there cometh unto them a scripture from Allah, confirming that in their possession - though before that they were asking for a signal triumph over those who disbelieved - and when there cometh unto them that which they know (to be the truth) they disbelieve therein. The curse of Allah is on disbelievers."
