Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Let's speak about the remaining aspects of the Kaaba. And we'll start off with the morphism. Now the morphism is that area between the hedgerow a sweat and the toe of the Kaaba, that area is known as a morphism. Whoever makes to hire his dye is readily accepted at this point of the lab. Now births are the alota, on whom used to cling on to this part of the Kaaba. To the extent that his cheeks would touch this place, he would spread his arms out, and his chest would also touch this place, and he would say, how good they are at Rasulullah sallallahu alley or send me a file. This is how I saw the Prophet of Allah sallallahu instead of
doing at this point, and at this place of the Kaaba. So, the word militarism or the word elitism means to cling on to, you should try and cling on to this place and make dua whatever you got, you should try and pull out your heart at this place and inshallah Allah subhanaw taala will accept those prayers of yours because it's a very blessed area of the Kaaba.
And then we have next to the Muth ism, we've got the Babu carrabba, the toe of the Kaaba.
Initially when the Prime Minister that was on both the carrabba he had placed two doors. One was the entry point, and one was the exit point. And when he bought the Kaaba, the door was attached to the ground.
It wasn't raised as it is at the moment.
So I shadowed the allowed Alana asked the Prophet of Allah Salallahu alaihe salam that Olivia for law. Why is the door of the Kaaba raised? Why is it so high? So the Prophet of Allah explained that
it is your people, that is the Qureshi that had read that had
raised the door of the Kaaba, and they did so in order to control who could enter the karma and who could visit the karma.
Essentially, when the kurush rebuild the karma, they closed off the second door and they left only one door open, which we see today and it is raised from the ground so that they could have full control of what's happening in that part of the Kaaba.
Now the door of the Kaaba is open, twice a year, children shall burn. And also during Lulu Carter,
and only special dignitaries, and special VIP people are invited to enter the door of the Gada and enter the actual cabinet for the the procession of washing the Garda
so that's as far as the door of the car is concerned. We also know that the door of the car is gold plated.
So the first halifa that was when he ignored the medic, he was the first Muslim leave,
to go plate the entire door of the car.
This was a omega leaf and omega ruler. He had sent 56,000 dinars that stole gold coins to the governor of Makkah. And he had instructed him that the dough of the Kaaba and the Misa Rama, that's the water spout these two areas, they should be fully gold plated.
And so he became the first person the first omega leaf to actually gold plate, the door of the Kaaba and the miserable Rama.
And then you have the sugar one.
Now this is a Persian word sugar one is the slope in pencil at the external bottom part of the Kaaba. It's found on three sides except the Hatim side. So if we look towards the lower end of the curve, on the external side, you'll see there's a slope there a white
marble slope, which tapers around the wall of the Kaaba, it's found on three sides except the Hatim side. Now, during the time of Abdullah, Roberto the alota and on who they had enforced the lower end of the wall so that it could be protected from floods and also to grant a reinforcement to the foundation of the carrabba. According to the chavi school of thought, if you stand on this part, you have to repeat your tawaf because it's part of the karma. However, the Hanafi see differently, and they say that this is just to India.
Kate, this is to strengthen, strengthen the foundation and not actually part of the car.
The next one we have is the Hatim or it's also known as the hedgerow smile, the room of a smile and so that was set up.
When I showed the old town and I came to the Kaaba, she asked the Prophet of Allah only of Allah want to perform to Ricardo and to perform Salah in the Kaaba, make arrangements for me. The Prophet of Allah sallallahu Sallam held her by the hand, and took her to the Hatim and said to her, oh Ayesha, if you perform Salah in this area, it is as if you have performed Salah inside the carrabba. So when the police were building the Kaaba, they ran short of pure funds, I say pure funds. And so to indicate that this is part of the Kaaba, they made a semi circular wall to indicate that this is part of the cover and we don't have the funds to complete it. Ever since it has remained like that
and tilted Alhamdulillah people get the opportunity of entering this area and performance salada in women also get an opportunity to go there.
Now was in the hedgerow a smile Hatim if you look above you there is the Misa or Rama, the water spout. This is a gutter which is used to channel the water when it rains and also when they are washing the Kaaba. And this was both by the kurush in the 35th when the Prophet of Allah sallallahu Sallam was 35 years of age when they were very bold in the Kaaba. At that time, the Qureshi had put up the Misa veranda prior to that there was no wall, so there was no need for the Misa Bhavana
Let's move on. If you are coming towards Brooklyn, a Yamani. Now you need to picture a second door which I spoke about earlier on, as I mentioned that there were two doors previously. One was the entry point one was the exit point. So on the opposite end, when you look at this when you picture the second door, the area between the second door and the rupani Yamani corner, that area is known as almost juror and most juror. So this is an area where it was also readily accepted. When a person gets a chance. Let him try and make Dwyer so you need to picture the second door and the area between that and the rope. nemani is known as almost a juror.
Now, let's go to the nuclear money corner. These are very significant corners, that is the routine Yamani corner in the digital asset corner.
The ruqayyah money cone is extremely important because this rests on the original foundations of Ibrahim alayhi salatu was Salam building. So the two corners the hedgerow is what corner and the rock nemani corner these two corners are on the actual foundation of the primary Salatu was Salam spolin and therefore the Prophet of Allah sallallahu Sallam used to make a steel arm of two corners. One is 100, a sweat corner and one is the Brooklyn Yamani corner. So that space the space between Brooklyn Yamani and hazardous wood, it's a very blessed place. There are many 1000s of angels that are stationed there. And their job is to say our mean mean mean that is whenever a person makes two
are the angels ask Allah subhanaw taala for acceptance. The Sahaba say that we have only seen the Prophet of Allah touch in two corners
between requin A Amani and Hydra password and the Blackstone itself. Other than that the Prophet of Allah did not make a steel arm of any other part of the Kaaba. So we must also keep that in mind in sha Allah.
Let's talk about the kiswa kiswa is the draping of the Kaaba It's also known as the Sitara
now, the first person to drape the Kaaba was acid him You said hey Mary.
And in the initial stages, the Kaaba was not draped. And when they did start * the Kaaba, it was draped in different kinds of material in different colors also, it was also open to the public wherever wanted to drape the cover they could do so. So there would be multiple layers and multiple trappings of the Kaaba at once.
However, during the scene effort of the bastard Empire, now we know that a buzzard dynasty, they official color of their fell off, it was black. So when they took over, they started draping the Kaaba in black and ever since it has remained in black till today. But if you look Alhamdulillah yesterday I had the opportunity of performance Salah, they're just close to the morphism and I had the opportunity of
gazing at the Kaaba, the door of the Kaaba and
Some of the inscribing and whatever is moving on to the draping of the toddler. So if you look at the door of the cover and the draping around there just above that way the the kiss was located, you will find different parts of the Quran, I had managed to make out some of those writings, I had picked up sooner operationally enough before moving on to the draping of the Kaaba. And then I've seen the verses of the second use of the Holy Quran for Narada Kaluga logic of his summer, that is to indicate about indicate with regards to the changing of the Qibla, from Jerusalem to cada and then you also got the names of Allah subhana wa Tada, Allah, Allah will be. And then I've also seen
that they have the ayatul kursi inscribed or moving into the draping of the Kaaba. And at the latter part towards the end of the draping, you see that this kiswa has been produced in Mecca tumakuru, Rama and it has been donated to the Kaaba by the current King. So that's what's written on the draping of the Kaaba. Mashallah beautiful atmosphere out here. And just before Maria, the atmosphere is magical, may Allah subhanaw taala bring us time and again to this place. There's one more one, two other things I want to mention. For example, if you look on
the lower end, where the sugar one is over the white marble is on the external lower end of the Kaaba. There are eight brown bricks that are laid day eight.
They say that these are very rare bricks to find. And it has been embedded within the sugar one within the white marble off the curb. And if you move about a meter towards your right, you'll see is that there's a yellowish plate. There was some inscription there, but it's difficult to make out what's written there. But there's a yellowish plate there. And towards the left hand side is I mentioned to you, there are eight brown bricks, if you get a chance, come closer to it when there's not many people and you'll be able to see that and between those eight bricks, and between that area and the door of the Kaaba. That's where the mahkamah Ibrahim, the station of Ibrahim Ali salatu
salam has also located but when the flood of
or when the flood came in the 17th year after he joined the healer for one Morocco. After the flood Omar Hassan had moved the maqam Ibrahim to where it is today a few meters away from the curb. That area which I'm talking about just after the door of the cover and the sugar one or the eight bricks. It's also known as the masala of Gibran la salatu salam. That is when Salah was made compulsory upon the Prophet sallallahu Sallam gibberella li salatu salam had led the Prophet sallallahu Sallam twice in this area. It's also known as the masala of Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So this is a good view to this is a good insight into the Kaaba and it's important locations. I hope this can benefit
us whenever we come to visit the holy lands, and the cada Sharif May Allah subhanaw taala bless us all and bring us your time and time again.
