Verse 26 of Surah Al-Hajj And [mention, O Muhammad], when We designated for Abraham the site of the House, [saying], "Do not associate anything with Me and purify My House for those who perform Tawaf and those who stand [in prayer] and those who bow and prostrate. It becomes clear from what has preceded that Tawaf (circumambulation) of the House of ALLAH Almighty, Holy Kaaba is a noble act of worship and huge act of obedience that ALLAH Almighty loves from His slaves. He has prepared a huge reward and many gains for those performing the Tawaf. Tawaf of the Holy Kaaba is a pillar from the pillars of Hajj and Tawaf is also performed in umrah, just as it is also a pillar from the pillars of Umrah. This shows the great significance and high status of the Tawwaf with Allaah; since neither the Hajj nor theUmrah can be complete without it. Indeed, in this great act, the Muslim learns great lessons and attains significant benefits, which is that this important act of ibadah (worship), by which it mean the Tawaf was legislated for this place alone, around the House of ALLAH Almighty Al-Haram or Holy Kaaba, as preceding texts from the Holy Quran and Sunnah has shown and there are many other texts as well. Pilgrimage to a holy place is a core principle of Muslim faiths. The Holy Kaaba, is a square building elegantly draped in a cotton and silk veil. Located in city Makkah, Saudi Arabia, it is the holiest place in Islam. In Islam, Muslims pray 5 times a day and after 624 CE, these prayers were directed towards city Makkah and the Holy Kaaba rather than Jerusalem; this direction or qibla in Arabic are marked in all mosques and enable the faithful to know in which direction they must pray. The Holy Quran established the direction of namaz. All Muslims aim to undertake the Umrah and hajj, or the yearly pilgrimage, to the Holy Kaaba once in their lives if they are physically and financially able. Prayer 5 times a day and the hajj are two of the 5 pillars of Islam, the most fundamental principles of the belief. Upon arriving in Makkah, all pilgrims gather in the courtyard of the Masjid al-Haram around the Holy Kaaba. They then perform Tawaaf (circumambulation), during which they hope to kiss and touch the Hajr-e-Aswad (Black Stone) embedded in the eastern corner of the Holy Kaaba. The numerous changes to the Holy Kaaba and its associated masjid serve as excellent reminder of how often buildings, even sacred ones, are renovated and remodelled either due to damage or to the changing requirements of the community. kaabahtours.co.uk is one of the authorized Hajj and Umrah travel agent based in UK offers a range of Cheap Umrah Packages with Flights from UK.
