The Ka'aba (literally "the cube" in Arabic) is an ancient stone structure that was built and re-built by
prophets as a house of monotheistic worship. It is located inside the Grand Mosque in Makkah, Saudi Arabia.
The Ka'aba is considered the center of the Muslim world, and is a unifying focal point for Islamic worship.

The Ka'aba is a semi-cubic building that stands about 15 meters high and 10-12 meters wide. It is an
ancient, simple structure made of granite. In the SE corner, a black meteorite (the "Black Stone") is embedded
in a silver frame. Stairs on the north side lead to a door which allows entry to the interior, which is hollow
and empty. The Ka'aba is covered with a kiswah, a black silk cloth which is embroidered in gold with verses
from the Qur'an. The kiswah is re-done and replaced once a year.

According to the Quran, the Ka'aba was built by the prophet Abraham and his son Ishmael as a
house of monotheistic worship. However, by the time of Muhammad, the Ka'aba had been taken over by
pagan Arabs to house their numerous tribal gods. In 630 A.D., Muhammad and his followers took over

2
leadership of Mecca after years of persecution. Muhammad destroyed the idols inside the Ka'aba and re-
dedicated it as a house of monotheistic worship.

It should be noted that Muslims do not worship the Ka'aba and its environments. Rather, it serves as
a focal and unifying point among the Muslim people. During daily prayers, Muslims face toward the Ka'aba
from wherever they are in the world (this is known as "facing the qiblah"). During the annual
pilgrimage ("Hajj"), Muslims walk around around the Ka'aba in a counter-clockwise direction (a ritual known
as "tawaf").

Text 3

ʿUthmān was born into the rich and powerful Umayyad clan of Mecca, and he became a wealthy merchant.
When Muḥammad began preaching in Mecca 615, he soon aroused the hostility of the Umayyads, but about
five years later On returning from a business trip to Syria, Uthman found out that Muhammad had declared
his mission. After a discussion with his friend Abu Bakr, Uthman decided to convert to Islam, and Abu Bakr
took him to Muhammad to declare his faith. Uthman thus became one of the earliest converts to Islam,
following Ali, Zayd, Abu Bakr and a few others. His conversion to Islam angered his clan, the
BanuUmmayyah, who strongly opposed Muhammad's teachings.

Uthman was married to Ruqayyah, and then upon her death, married Umm Kulthum, both of them being
daughters of Prophet Muhammad, which earned Uthman the honorific title Dhū al-Nurayn ("The Possessor of
Two Lights")

3
ʿUmar, the second caliph, died in 644, and ʿUthmān was elected successor by a council named by ʿUmar
before his death. Apparently ʿUthmān was selected as a compromise, when the more powerful candidates
cancelled each other out.

Under the leadership of Uthman, the empire expanded into Fars (present-day Iran) in 650, and some areas
of Khorasan (present-day Afghanistan) in 651. The empire's conquest of Armenia began by the 640s. His reign
also saw widespread internal protests against his policies by the Muslim public that eventually led to armed
revolt and his assassination.
