she went to the other hill and did the same. She did this seven times.
Then sadly she returned to her son, and to her great surprise and joy
she found a spring of water bubbling out of the earth near him. This
spring, near which the mother and child settled, was later called
Zamzam. The area around it became a place of rest for the caravans
travelling across the desert and in time grew into the famous trading
city of Mecca. From time to time Abraham traveled from Palestine to visit his family and he saw Ishmael grow into a strong young man. It was during one of these visits that Allah commanded them to rebuild the Ka'bah-the very first place where people had worshipped Allah. They were told exactly where and how to build it. It was to be erected by the well of Zamzam and built in the shape of a cube. In its eastern corner was to be placed a black stone that had fallen to earth from heaven. An angel brought the stone to them from the nearby hill of Abu Qubays. |
