Shrine, also called Bayt al `Atiq (Arabic: بيت ال عتيق, Old House) is a building restored in the time of Prophet Ibrahim and Prophet Ismail Ismail after the Prophet was in Mecca on the orders of Allah SWT. In the Qur'an, Sura 14:37 implies that there has been a sacred site Ka'ba as the Prophet Ibrahim put Hagar and baby Ishmael in that location.
At the time of the Prophet Muhammad was 30 years old (about 600 AD and has not appointed a messenger at the time), the building was renovated again by flash floods that hit the city of Mecca at the time. There was some dispute between the head of the tribe or tribes when they wanted to put the stone back the Black Stone at one corner of the Ka'ba, but thanks to the settlement of the dispute Muhammad successfully settled without bloodshed and without any party aggrieved.
On the eve of the Prophet Muhammad SAW was made to move to the city of Medina, which was originally the shrine building houses of worship religion of monotheism (Tawheed) the teachings of Prophet Ibrahim had turned into a shrine in which Arab nations put about 360 idols / statues that represent the gods polytheism of the Arabs when the dark thoughts (jahilliyah) but as the teachings of Prophet Ibrahim, who is the ancestor of the Arabs and the Jews and the teachings of Prophet Moses to the Jews, God the Creator can not be dipersekutukan and worshiped together with any object or creature likewise and not have an intermediary to worship and not a single one like it and do not have children and do not begotten (Surah Al-Ikhlas in the Qur'an). Ka'ba eventually cleared of religious statues when Prophet Muhammad freed polytheism of Mecca without bloodshed and restored as a house of worship religion of Tawheed (Islam).
Furthermore, the building is managed and maintained by the Children Sya'ibah as key holders Ka'ba and the administration and servicing pilgrimage organized by the government both governments caliph Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman ibn Affan, Ali ibn Abi Talib, Muawiyah ibn Abu Sufyan, Ummayyah Dynasty, Abbasid dynasty, dynasty Ottoman Turkey, until now the kingdom of Saudi Arabia government that acts as a waitress two holy cities, Mecca and Medina.
At first shrine building consists of two doors and the location of the shrine door is located on the ground, not like now that the door is rather high. By the time Muhammad was 30 years old and has not appointed an apostle, do renovations on the shrine due to floods. At the moment there is a shortage costs, the building Ka'ba made only one door. There is also a part that is not put into building the Ka'ba, called Hijir Ismail, the marked half-circle on one side of the Ka'ba. Just then the door is located so high only the Quraysh leaders who can enter, because the Quraysh tribe or tribes that are glorified by the Arabs at that time.
Prophet Muhammad once again thought better to renovate the shrine because his people had just embraced Islam, as represented words written in a hadith: "If my people not just left disbelief, I would lower the door of the Ka'ba and made two Hijir Ismail door and entered into the Ka'ba" , as the foundation built by the Prophet Abraham.
When Abdullah bin Zubair time ruled the Hejaz region, the building was rebuilt according to the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad SAW, which is above the foundation of the Prophet Ibrahim. But when a war with Abdul Malik bin Marwan local authorities Sham (Syria, Jordan and Lebanon now) and Palestine, there is a fire in the Ka'ba gunshot bullet catapult (onager) owned Sham forces. Abdul Malik ibn Marwan who later became caliph, to renovate the shrine back in the building by the time of Prophet Muhammad SAW and not based on the foundation of the Prophet Ibrahim. Ka'ba in the subsequent history several times suffered damage as a result of the war and because of the age of the building.
When Caliph Harun reign of Al Rashid in the Abbasid caliphate, the caliph plans to renovate the shrine again according foundation Prophet Ibrahim and Prophet Muhammad desired. however be prevented by one of the leading scholars of Imam Malik, because it was feared would be the arena of the sacred building disassembly rulers after him. Thus building the Ka'ba keep fit during renovations Caliph Abdul Malik bin Marwan until now.
