Did the catapult destroy the Kaaba?!!!

 The Messenger of God was truthful....and no one will violate the House except its people.

The Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, predicts that the violation of the sanctity of the Kaaba will be repeated among Muslims and will never be by enemies of the religion :

The Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, confirmed that the Kaaba will never be invaded by an infidel army, and that anyone who tries to approach it will be destroyed by God... The Messenger also confirmed that until the Day of Resurrection, no one will commit immorality in the Kaaba, transgress, or violate its sanctity, except those who are Muslims themselves ...

On the authority of Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him, that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “Allegiance will be given to a man between the corner and the station, and no one will desecrate the House except its people. If they desecrate it, then he will not be asked about the destruction of the Arabs. Then the Abyssinians will come and destroy it in a way that will never be rebuilt again, and they are the ones who will extract its treasure.” [1]

Indeed, the Holy Qur’an did not rule out the possibility of a conflict arising from rebellious groups near the Sacred House, so God gave us the Qur’anic rule to which we can resort, as God Almighty said:

"And do not fight them at al-Masjid al-Haram until they fight you there. But if they fight you, then kill them."

There is no disagreement among any of the nation that Mecca - may God glorify and protect it - will not be defeated by an infidel, a rebel, or a warrior until the Day of Resurrection , and victory will be for the Muslims.

No unclean, uncircumcised person shall enter the Kaaba...!!!

And until today, it has been more than 1400 years and we have not heard that the Kaaba has been attacked, invaded or demolished by any army of non-Muslims . No unclean, uncircumcised person will enter it and no infidel or worshipper of humans and stones will enter it.



This is proof of the truth of the prophecy of the Messenger of God, Muhammad, that it will be forbidden to non-Muslims . God has given us a covenant that no non-Muslim will touch it. Therefore, no mistake in it or violation of its sanctity will be made except by the wicked Muslims. So




the wicked and immoral among us is the one who may violate the sanctity of the Kaaba without knowing it. Satan tempts him to do so.

---

The prophecy of the Chosen One was confirmed, as no unclean, uncircumcised person entered it, and to this day, no one has violated the Kaaba except its people:

We mentioned that the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, said:

(..... And none will violate the Kaaba except its people. If they violate it, then no one will be asked about the destruction of the Arabs... ) [2]

And so all of this was from the signs of his prophethood, peace be upon him, and evidence of his truthfulness, may God bless him and grant him peace... We have more than 1400 years... since the time of the Messenger and his prophethood until today, and we have never found an enemy who attacked the Kaaba and violated its sanctity..!!

When some uncircumcised Christians thought of invading the Kaaba... God destroyed them..!!

Rather, let us say with pride and dignity... Glory be to God and to those who worship God... We say... Since the end of the second century AD, since the emergence of the uncircumcised group, the followers of Paul , and the spread of their Roman state in the countries east and west, length and breadth, shedding blood and slaughtering , and until today, we have never heard of an army that came and demolished the Kaaba. And when some of these Ethiopian Christians thought, when their blind hatred led them... God humiliated them with the birds of Ababil... So none of them thought except that God humiliated him...!!!

And thus, since the dawn of the Hebrew prophecies that predicted the House of the End of Time and its return to appear, and God's preservation of it from the destruction of the enemies... This House has proven the truth of God's promise to it... and it was the best example for God to humiliate the enemies of the House... The best example was from you... from the people of Christianity. Abraha the Abyssinian and his supporters...!!


When they tried to violate the sanctity of the House... and wanted to demolish it... to convert the Arabs to Christianity... then God Almighty denounced them and denounced them... and God Almighty said about them:

“Have you not seen what your Lord did with the companions of the elephant? Did He not make their plot go astray? And He sent against them birds in flocks, striking them with stones of baked clay. And He made them like straw eaten up.”

Thus, God destroyed some of Paul’s followers, the Ethiopian Christians, and what they worshipped did not avail them against God..!!

---

Only its people will be allowed to enter the house

The Hebrew prophecies in your books predicted that when the House was rebuilt, God would purify it from all impurity and all vice. So

Muhammad purified it in only about 25 years from the filth of polytheism and idolatry...

And the Messenger of God Muhammad informed us with his true prophecy that corruption in the House of God would be limited to the wicked Muslims... !!!

And just as the Chosen Messenger predicted, since the dawn of Islam until today, no enemy of the Muslims has destroyed the Kaaba. So Al-Hussain bin Numayr, the commander of the army of Yazid bin Muawiyah, invaded it... He did not invade the Kaaba, but rather wanted to fight Abdullah bin Al-Zubayr and those with him when they took refuge in the Kaaba... Then Al-Hajjaj bin Yusuf invaded it and killed Abdullah bin Al-Zubayr in it, and finally Sulayman bin Al-Hasan Al-Jayyani invaded it - may God curse them all.

No, my stubborn Christian friend... No, I swear to God.

God will not grant you what you wish for and what you shout in your dreams about the House of God...!!!

And the dear ones did not know... that the more their falsehoods increased...

Whenever the truth of the prophecies appears, glory to the religion of God!!

---

And the nonsense that was stirred up by a lying, deceitful slut remained... She said:

The Kaaba was destroyed several times; some in the pre-Islamic era; and some in Islam. The incident of the elephant and the Ababil birds was not repeated ; rather, the Lord of the Kaaba left His Kaaba to be destroyed by a catapult and burned by the hand of Ibn al-Zir and he did not care.

I cannot lie to myself... Yes, the Ababil birds are an Arab Bedouin lie... Muhammad did not tell us about its destruction ; he did not tell us about Ibn al-Zubayr or the Qarmatians or Yazid ibn Muawiyah who threw a catapult at it and destroyed it? Even the hadiths that Abu Hurairah fabricated; caused the commentators to fall into confusion beyond confusion!!

This is what we will provide below with scrutiny and evidence of truth... We are a nation of read, O objector ... We do not speak with shaky spontaneous transmission and worn-out evidence.

We Muslims are the people of proof and documentation.. We only speak the truth, and we only argue with the truth... because we are the promised nation... a nation where there is no god but God...!!

Did the catapult destroy the Kaaba?!!!

The answer is known in advance and it is: certainly not... and the reason for the suspicion is the historical fallacy that the objector deliberately uses, trying to twist the texts to serve his purposes even if what he says is a lie and slander. When the obstinate person reads the words “hitting the Kaaba with a catapult,” and finds under this crude title that the catapult did not destroy the Kaaba, he finds no harm in stealing the resonant title of the topic, but he creates an artistic plot in which he changes the truth of the topic written under this resonant title... making the stones of the catapults look like Tomahawk missiles...!! .. And he depicts the event as if the remnants of the emperors gathered to demolish the House of Allah.. Then he concludes his story with that lie and myth, saying: And the Kaaba was demolished by a catapult.. And if we embarrassed any claimant by asking for the source, we will see him stutter and stammer... and offer feeble apologies . If he is exhausted by asking for sources, he will reject them. These are the nightmares of the people of falsehood, and the wishes of the worshippers of tyrants... Since the dawn of Islam until today... They wish that the dream of demolishing the Kaaba was true...!!


The ones who threw the catapult towards the Kaaba were: Al-Hussain bin Numayr, and Al-Hajjaj Al-Thaqafi , and they were followers of the Umayyads, and they wanted to kill the Commander of the Faithful Abdullah bin Al-Zubayr, who was fortified near the Kaaba.... And they did not mean the Kaaba, but rather Ibn Al-Zubayr and his supporters. However, the catapult never destroyed the Kaaba .




The reason for this strife was that Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr ibn Asma bint Abi Bakr al-Siddiq appointed himself governor of Mecca and Medina when the Umayyads in the Levant considered musical instruments and many innovations and falsehoods permissible... They considered him to have left their allegiance and sought refuge in the sanctuary, so they fought him... and sent to him al-Husayn ibn Numayr... then al-Hajjaj, whom they killed, and they considered fighting at the Kaaba and fighting those who sought refuge in it permissible, and their reckoning is with Allah Almighty. For a misguided person to consider it permissible... for a war to occur in the sanctuary of the Kaaba is one thing, and for a falsifier of events to come and claim that he destroyed the Kaaba with a catapult is another thing ...!!!

Did the besiegers attack the Kaaba itself with a catapult or did they deliberately attack it?!!

The attack was not on the Kaaba itself, as some stories of the pulpits and its visitors may mention... but rather the attack was on people who had taken refuge in palm fronds around it... Indeed, when the fire caught hold of the curtains of the Kaaba, both the aggressor and the invading party thought that they were doomed... !!!

My grandfather told me, Saeed bin Salem told us, on the authority of Uthman bin Saj, who said: An old woman from the people of Mecca who was with Abdullah bin Al-Zubayr in Mecca told me, so I said to her: Tell me about the burning of the Kaaba, how it happened? She said: There were many tents in the mosque, and a fire broke out from one of the tents, and the tents burned, and the mosque was engulfed in flames until the fire engulfed the House and it burned. Uthman said: It was reported to me that when the army of Al-Hussain bin Numayr came, some of the people of Ash-Sham burned the gate of Bani Jumah, and the mosque at that time was tents and pavilions, and the fire spread until it engulfed the House, and both groups thought they were doomed , and the construction of the Kaaba weakened, so much so that birds would land on it and its stones would scatter , and they would swoop down from its top to its bottom, and pigeons would land on it and its stones would scatter, and it was stripped and weak from every side, so the people of Mecca and the people of Ash-Sham were terrified by that . [3]

Some of those who quoted from him without scrutiny claim, saying:

1- When I mentioned in one of the topics that the Qumran manuscripts predict the appearance of a house of God at the end of time and that the enemies will never destroy it... one of the objectors came out to some of our brothers in other forums and said:

- Wasn't the Kaaba hit by catapults in Islamic history?

2- In the dialogue of our beloved brother Tawhid with Professor Omar Bakr... he repeats the same suspicion of the Christian Nahed Metwally... saying:

Thank you for admitting that Al-Hajjaj threw a catapult at the Kaaba and destroyed parts of it, even though fighting is forbidden in Mecca, according to what you say.

We say to Omar Bakr, who quotes Nahed Metwally... and every Christian... that the mere fact that the House has remained for more than 1400 years and until today without being destroyed by a single enemy of the Muslims... and that it has remained for more than 1400 years and its sanctity has not been violated except by a handful like Al-Hajjaj and others by permitting fighting in the sanctuary... is evidence of the truth of the Muhammadan prophecy... and an argument against you regarding the truthfulness of Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace... and an explicit personal call that came from within you against you calling you to Islam... Your tongues have come to acknowledge the confirmation of the truthfulness of Muhammad, the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace... who confirmed that no enemy will violate the House... so no one will violate it except its people ... and that they violate it means that they permit fighting in it or violating its sanctity, and there is a great difference between permitting something and demolishing it ...!!

Violating the house and encroaching on the sanctities is one thing.

Demolishing and destroying the Kaaba is something else..!!

Did the catapult destroy the Kaaba, as the objector claims?!!!

It never happened... but a fire broke out in the curtains of the Kaaba when a spark lit by one of those seeking refuge in the House of God flew and caught hold of the Kaaba’s cloth and it burned... and the army emigrated and the catapults departed, and the House continued to be circumambulated and remained lofty, with God Almighty being worshipped before it...

Let us open the oldest historical sources...

Abu Aoun said: It was only burned because of us . A man from among us, Muslim bin Abi Khalifa Al-Madhhaji, and his companions were lighting fires in their huts around the House. He took fire from the tip of his spear in the oil. It was a windy day, and a spark flew from it, and the Kaaba burned until it became wood. We said to them: This is your action. You have thrown oil and fire at the House of God Almighty. They denied that. [4]

He said: Muhammad bin Yahya told me: Al-Waqidi said: Rabah bin Muslim told me, on the authority of his father, who said: “ They were lighting fires in the huts, and a spark came and the wind blew it , and the clothes of the Kaaba were burned, and the wood was burned .” [5]

Muhammad bin Yahya told me: Al-Waqidi said: Abdullah bin Yazid told me, on the authority of Urwah bin Udaynah, who said: “I came to Mecca with my father on the day the Kaaba burned down. I saw that the fire had reached the wood, and I saw it stripped of the fire, and I saw the corner had turned black. I said: What happened to the Kaaba? They pointed to a man from the companions of Ibn al-Zubayr and said: This is the reason the Kaaba burned down. He took fire from the tip of his spear, and the wind blew it away, striking the curtains of the Kaaba between the Yemeni corner and the Black Corner .” [6]

Has the Kaaba ever been demolished, for other than restoration or by floods due to weakness in the construction???

The answer is....definitely not.

Muslims throughout history have never destroyed the Kaaba, except to rebuild it more strongly and solidly... If the catapult was what destroyed the Kaaba, as they claim... then how did Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr destroy it after the catapult had finished striking and those who had left with their catapults had departed to their countries?!... And how did he order its demolition in order to rebuild it then?!

The gossipers and storytellers try to fabricate stories , they sew a word from here with a word from there, and they come out with a distorted history, laughing at the poor good people who listen to them.... Then one of the good people comes and throws out what he hears, thinking that they believe him ....!!!!






It seems that the objector is always one of those good people who listen to gossip and undocumented stories, and it seems that the objector was satisfied with transmitting this false news without the slightest investigation of the truth...!!





When we read in the narrations this expression "that Al-Hussain bin Numayr threw the catapult at the Kaaba ", then those who have no knowledge of Arabic think that the Kaaba itself was the target of the catapult... and they do not know that what is meant is that the strike was towards the Kaaba, and that the fire that befell the Kaaba was never from the catapult strikes..!!!

The catapult attackers... are Muslims and cannot intentionally hit the Kaaba...!!

Even the catapult throwers denied that any of them had reached the Kaaba, and those who were throwing near the Kaaba admitted that the catapult did not destroy the Kaaba and that the most the catapult did was to tear a stone from it from the Kaaba’s covering...!!!

The catapult had no role in the destruction of the Kaaba, nor did it have anything to do with the fire that occurred and engulfed the Kaaba’s covering and wood, for it was they who took refuge in the House, not the catapult’s blows. It was due to one of their mistakes when a flame flew from a palm frond they had lit, and the Kaaba’s curtains grew long and burned it...as we explained above.

The most that the catapult can do is weaken the Kaaba’s already weak structure, since the time of the Messenger...!

So the catapult was not the reason for the weakness of the Kaaba’s construction, even though the blows of the stones increased its weakness. Rather, if anything could actually increase its weakness, it would have been logical for it to be the fire that burned its wood, not the catapult’s stones... The weakness and fragility of the construction had been present since the time of the Messenger.

The Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, himself wanted to demolish the House and rebuild it.

On the authority of Aisha, may God be pleased with her, she said: I asked the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, about the wall: Is it part of the house? He said: (Yes). I said: Why did they not put it [in the house]? He said: (Your people were short of money). I said: What is the matter with its door being high? He said: (Your people did that so that they could let in whomever they wanted and prevent whomever they wanted. And were it not that your people were recent converts to ignorance and I feared that their hearts would disapprove, I would have considered putting the wall in the house and sticking its door to the ground . [8]

So since the time of the Messenger of Allah Muhammad, its construction has been weak... and since the time of the Messenger, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, he wanted to demolish it to rebuild it with two doors and include its walls in the house. With time and with the fire that struck its wood, the house became even weaker, so it was necessary for Ibn al-Zubayr or someone who took his place to demolish the house and rebuild it... so





Ibn al-Zubayr built it as he wished the Messenger, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, to be , then al-Hajjaj demolished it because he was not satisfied with Ibn al-Zubayr’s construction, and rebuilt it as the Messenger, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was satisfied, that is, he returned it to its original state... as it was.

When Abdullah bin Al-Zubayr delayed in pledging allegiance to Yazid bin Muawiyah, and stayed behind and feared them, he went to Mecca to protect himself in the sanctuary. Al-Hussain bin Numayr went to Mecca, and Ibn Al-Zubayr fought there for days. Al-Hussain bin Numayr had set up a catapult on Abu Qubays and on Al-Ahmar, which were the two most wooded areas of Mecca, and he used to throw them at them, and the stones hit the Kaaba until its covering was torn , and they became like women’s pockets. The catapult’s throwing weakened the Kaaba, so a man from the companions of Ibn Al-Zubayr went to light a fire in one of those tents near Al-Safa between the Black Corner and the Yemeni Corner, and the mosque at that time was narrow and small, so a spark flew into the tent and it burned, and there were strong winds that day, and the Kaaba at that time was built according to the construction of the Quraysh, a course of teak and a course of stones, from its bottom to its top, and it had the covering on it, so the winds blew away the flames of that fire; The Kaaba's covering was burned, and the teak between the building was burned ... When the Kaaba burned and the Black Corner was burned and cracked, Ibn al-Zubayr was still tying it with silver, and the walls of the Kaaba weakened, to the point that it would collapse from top to bottom, and doves would fall on it and its stones would scatter , while it was stripped and weak from every side . The people of Mecca and the people of Syria were all alarmed by this , and al-Husayn ibn Numayr was staying besieging Ibn al-Zubayr. Ibn al-Zubayr sent men from Mecca from Quraysh and others, among them Abdullah ibn Khalid ibn Asid, and men from Banu Umayyah, to al-Husayn. They spoke to him and made him feel very sorry for what had happened to the Kaaba ... and they said: This was done by you, you threw oil at it. They denounced this ... and they continued to do so until he returned to Syria. When the army of Al-Hussain bin Numayr turned back, Ibn Al-Zubayr called the notables and nobles of the people and consulted them about demolishing the Kaaba. A few people suggested that he demolish it, but most of the people refused to demolish it. The most vehement of them was Abdullah bin Abbas, who said to him: Leave it as the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, approved of it, for I fear that someone will come after you who will demolish it, and it will continue to be demolished and rebuilt, and people will be lax about its sanctity. But patch it up. Ibn Al-Zubayr said: By God, none of you would be pleased to patch up the house of his father and mother, so how can I patch up the house of God Almighty while I see it collapsing from top to bottom, until pigeons fall on it and its stones scatter. Among those who advised him to demolish it were Jabir ibn Abdullah, who had come to perform Umrah, Ubayd ibn Umair, and Abdullah ibn Safwan ibn Umayya. He stayed for days consulting and considering, then he decided to demolish it. He wanted to be the one to restore it to what the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, had said, on the foundations of Abraham, and to what the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, had described to Aisha, may God be pleased with her. So he wanted to build it with Al-Wurs (7). When the stones had gathered and he wanted to demolish it, the people of Mecca left it for Mina, and stayed there for three days, fearing that punishment would descend upon them for demolishing it. So Ibn Al-Zubayr ordered it to be demolished, but no one dared to do so. When he saw that, he climbed it himself, took a pickaxe (8) and began demolishing it and throwing stones at it. When they saw that nothing had happened to him, they took the courage (9), and climbed up to demolish it. Ibn Al-Zubayr said: I bear witness that I heard Aisha, may God be pleased with her, say: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: “Your people fell short in building the House, and the money was insufficient for them, so they left a few cubits of it in the Hijr. Had it not been for the fact that your people were new to disbelief, I would have demolished the Kaaba and restored what they had left of it, and I would have made for it two doors set into the ground, an eastern door through which people could enter, and a western door through which people could exit. Do you know why your people raised its door?” She said: “I said: No.” He said: “They were proud that no one would enter it except those they wanted. If a man was disliked to enter it, they would call him to climb up, until when he was about to enter, they would push him and he would fall. If your people decide to demolish it, then come and I will show you what they left of it in the Hijr. ” Ibn al-Zubayr said to them: “Bear witness.” Then he put the building on that foundation, and put the wall of the door of the Kaaba on a course on the shadhrawan attached to the ground, and made the other door opposite it in the back of the Kaaba facing... The Kaaba was eighteen cubits in the sky on the day that Ibn al-Zubayr demolished it, but when Ibn al-Zubayr reached eighteen cubits in the building, it became shorter because of the increase in the stone that he added to it, and he found that acceptable since it became wide and had no length, so he said: It was nine cubits before the Quraysh until the Quraysh added nine cubits in length to the sky, so I will add another nine cubits. So he built it twenty-seven cubits into the sky..... The House remained as built by Ibn al-Zubayr, ..... until Ibn al-Zubayr was killed, may God have mercy on him, and al-Hajjaj entered Mecca. He wrote to Abdul Malik bin Marwan: Ibn al-Zubayr has added to the House what is not part of it, and has created another door in it..... So he wrote to him asking his permission to return the House to what it was in the pre-Islamic era, so Abdul Malik bin Marwan wrote to him to close its western door that Ibn al-Zubayr had opened, and demolish what he had added to it of stone..... So al-Hajjaj demolished six cubits and a span of it from what was next to the stone, and built it on the foundation of the Quraysh that they had fallen short of, and he covered it with what he demolished of it, and he closed the door in its back, and he left the rest of it without moving anything from it. So everything in it today is built by Ibn al-Zubayr except the walls in the stone, which are built by al-Hajjaj....., and what is under the threshold of the eastern door from which one enters the ground today is four cubits and a span, all of this is built by al-Hajjaj ^^ , and the step in its belly today and the two doors on it today are also the work of al-Hajjaj, so when al-Hajjaj finished From all this, after that, Al-Harith bin Abdullah bin Abi Rabi’ah Al-Makhzumi came to Abdul Malik bin Marwan, and Abdul Malik said to him: I do not think that Abu Khabib - meaning Ibn Al-Zubayr - heard from Aisha what he claimed to have heard from her about the matter of the Kaaba. Al-Harith said: I heard it from Aisha. He said: I heard her say what? He said: I heard her say: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said to me: “Your people fell short in building the House, and were it not for the recent conversion of your people to disbelief, I would have restored what they left of it. If your people decide to build it, then come and I will show you what they left of it. I saw it was close to seven cubits. ” The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: “And I made two doors for it placed on the ground: an eastern door through which people enter, and a western door through which people exit.”..... When it was during the caliphate of Al-Walid bin Abdul-Malik, he sent to his governor of Mecca, Khalid bin Abdullah Al-Qasri, thirty-six thousand dinars, and he struck from it gold plates on the two doors of the Kaaba, and on the Kaaba’s gutter, and on the pillars in its interior, and on the corners inside it. Abu Al-Walid said: My grandfather said: Everything that was on the gutter and on the corners inside it of gold, it was the work of Al-Walid bin Abdul-Malik, and he was the first to gild the House in Islam....etc. [9]

Finally, all Muslims, in every time and place, denounced what the leaders of the Umayyads did... Al-Hussain bin Numayr and Al-Hajjaj Al-Thaqafi , when they used the catapult to strike a group that had taken refuge in the Sacred Sanctuary... Their transgression against the Sacred Sanctuary of Allah was like their transgression against the House of Allah and His honorable Kaaba... Therefore, we do not say that they struck those who sought refuge with the catapult, but rather they struck the sanctity of the House... and they terrified its people and its secure pilgrims... The stones were falling while the pilgrims were circumambulating the Sacred House... There is no power or strength except with Allah... And finally, we end this simple discussion by declaring the fallacy of the lie of the demolition of the Kaaba with the catapult... The claim of the demolition of the House with the catapult is a claim devoid of documentation... And whoever claims to provide evidence and proof... Otherwise, silence is better than deception!!!

Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds... and thus the prophecy foretold in the Holy Book discovered in Qumran is fulfilled... and the Holy House was never destroyed by any enemy of the religion, and the slander fabricated by the skeptics falls, and every falsehood falls... and the truth rises and resounds... In the name of God the truth rises... The "There is no god but God" rises... the pure monotheism of God... and God Almighty is true when He says: Rather, We cast the truth upon falsehood, and it crushes it, and thereupon it departs. And for you is woe for that which you describe ... O God, guide them, for they do not know.

Please, seeker of truth, read this topic:

The Qumran manuscripts predict the building of the House of God in the Valley of Bakkah, and the enemies will never destroy it after that..!!

* Imagine, my dear, that the Christian thought reached the point that the catapult stones had demolished the house... We say that a stone may leave a protrusion or a gap, but demolishing a house?! The poor man forgot that a catapult stone fell on Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr and did not move him, so why was he not demolished or killed at that time as well?! ...

A little logic, people... When will you learn from the nation of “Read”?!


** Note, my dear, that its covering was torn and it was not demolished as they claim , and we do not know until now where they got this nonsense from?!

*** The cause of the fire was a spark from the palm fronds, and the catapult had nothing to do with the matter... and it was not demolished by the fire either...!!!

**** It is not possible to deny, denounce, or even withdraw from those who wanted to destroy and demolish the Kaaba...!!!

^ A narration from Ibn al-Zubayr confirms that the Messenger wanted to rebuild the Kaaba, and this narration is strengthened by what came in Sahih Muslim.

^^ May Allah fight deception and lies... If al-Hajjaj had demolished the Kaaba with the catapult, would he have sent to Abdul-Malik to allow him to demolish it after the catapult battle was over..?!?!!.. And would he have asked him to rebuild the Kaaba as it was before and not as Ibn al-Zubayr made it?!!... And would he have proceeded after that to demolish the Kaaba to remove what al-Zubayr had done?!!!

We go to the Holy Book to know what happened to the Tabernacle and the Temple, the House of God, as the Jews and Christians believe.
They used to lie with women at the entrance to the Tabernacle.

Now Eli was advanced in years, and he heard what evil his sons had done to all Israel, and how they had been lying with the women who were gathered at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 1 Samuel 2:22
