      It would be impossible to go around the temple since it was located in a corner of old Jerusalem, that means that there were walls on each side of the temple.
      That would make it impossible to go around the entire temple, and if you mean going around the Holy Place, it would not be possible either because of the shape of the esplanade.

      I found a piece which adds info on this during my research, not much though. In the Biography of Prophet Muhammad by Ibn Hisham you can find that once there was a man who tried to steal the treasure at the bottom of the well, but, apparently, there was a giant snake inside of the well, protecting it, with the head as big as a sheep.
      Most likely this was a story to scare the people off and not try to get the treasure stored at the bottom. Regardless, what we know is that a door was then added to the basic structure of the Kaaba, the level was raised above ground and probably closed by key and guarded day and night so that nobody, except the priests in charge of the 'istiqsam entered.

    In Sanskrit Kupa means well. Perhaps the word Kaaba would have come from the cube structure near the Kupa (well) that could be identified from distance to any thirsty person. In Hindu Shiva temples of India, the well water inside the temple is considered sacred and equivalent to Ganga. Perhaps the gam-gam sound of Ganga changed to zam-zam which is also considered sacred. The water of Ganges that comes from ice melting from the Himalayas contains high minerals that it doesn’t go bad even if one keeps it for many years. Therefore it is common practice for Hindus even today to store Ganga in a tiny sealed copper pot and administer it to quench the final thirst of a dying person. It is considered that he would rest in peace. The word Shiva in Sanskrit translates to Peace. And the word Islam too means the same.

      Kupa is not Sanskrit. Its hindi. The Hindu faith always flourished near fast flowing perennial rivers. People of yester years weren't that mad that they will go into a desert country without water and vegetation and speaking strange languages. Sugriv of Valmiki Ramayana speaks of Middle eastern public and of course it was pre islamic. He says don't venture into their lands or pluck and dates from their trees. These arabic land people are very quarrelsome and grumpy. They have some sheeps and dates nothing else to survive with except stealing and warring. Shiva doesn't mean peace in Sanskrit. The word Shiva has been ordained to Rudra later on. Rather Rudra is the God of destruction storms and thunder and he is the giver of grief which brings in tears. The Indus Valley script which has recently been deciphered supports the facts laid out here.

But maybe Buddhism would have been the main religion of Europe and the Middle East or maybe the whole of Eurasia. As the Greek in Afghanistan converted to Buddhism and were the once who introduced the Buddha sculptures like those in Afghanistan and everywhere else in Asia. Christianity itself was heavily influenced by Buddhism and Taoism, if you read the evangelical writings closely.

However, I'm curious about the idea that all these other "Kaabas" are in some way lesser or not as important. Different cultures have their own sacred sites that hold deep meaning for them, and I think it’s worth recognizing that not every belief system can be compared on the same scale.

      Hajar-e-Aswad is a cosmic stone originally almost light blue in color. The stone first broken during the Mesopotamian from yemeni raids when the king asked Arabs to pledge allegiance to him. That is when for the first time the stone was put together and binded with iron alloy. The second time during the ottoman empire it was stolen by Ismailis and taken away. The then caliph was so angry that he gave the Shia’s of Persia a deadline to convince the Ismailis to return it or else he would destroy the entire Persian land, that is when the broken pieces of the Hajar was returned and one stone was retained in Turkey before sending the rest back to arabia and a mold compound of carbon (Tar) was put together to glue the hajar in place and a stronger metal alloy was used to case it so that no one could ever steal it. This is the contemporary state of the hajar. None of the ottoman caliphs ever performed hajj.

      Baal means "Lord", and it was the most common name the Middle Eastern Civilizations would call their most important gods to avoid pronouncing their names!

    It's worth considering that Christianity in the peninsula was not only the result of roman missionaries, but was also largely based on the Christians which fled from the Roman empire after the council of Nicaea...

    I am a Hindu from India. If you want to experience and see what is discussed about Ziggurat and marriage of gods, come to India. Especially to the south. Every month Gods are married. We worship Murthys or Vigrahas , the statues of gods carved in stone housing the force of god and harnessed through mantras and yantras and then they are worshipped as the embodiment of infinite, all pervading almighty’s limited grace . The power and impact of the deity increases as the force is harnessed and invited through mantras into the vigraha or the stone statues consecrated in a unique vedic way. It increases day by day.

    Very nice video by the way, I appreciate the illustrations and the way you included sources for each excerpt.

      @VladRacovitaEN  2 месяца назад +7

      We genuinely want to be noticed by them :), so if by any chance you or other viewers somehow manage to bring our videos on pre islamic Arabia to their attention, we would be immensely happy.
      While creators like David Wood, Apostate Prophet, Esoterica, Religion for Breakfast, Alex O'Connor, and others tend to 'talk' about the intricacies of religions, we really strive to bring those details to life visually, thanks to my excellent editor.
      Creating a video about pre-Islamic Arabia is quite challenging. There’s very little archaeological evidence, and even when some exists, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia restricts scholars from examining the Kaaba, the surrounding soil, and much of Mecca and Medina to verify it. The few literary sources we have are not only scarce but also biased-and sometimes even fake! For example, the letter Muhammad supposedly sent to Byzantine Emperor Heraclius is widely considered a forgery created after his death. However, if you're careful with the details, you can still often find pieces of historical information in these 'biased' sources that give you a valuable glimpse into that period, such as the fact that there were many statues around the Kaaba, how it changed in shape, what was put inside of it, the well at the bottom that later dried in which the treasures were given as offerings, the fact that there were many wells all around Mecca prompting to make us think that somehow, the existence of the Kaaba was tightly linked to that of water in the area (in pre-islamic times)"

      @VladRacovitaEN  2 месяца назад

      Hey, thank you for the comment, we made a mistake upon revision. But not exactly the one you pointed out. Thank you!
      Here is the mistake:
      Ibn Ishaq's and Ibn Kathir's works are two different books.
      Ibn Ishaq's Sīra: This is an early biography of Prophet Muhammad (Sīrat Rasūl Allāh), compiled by Ibn Ishaq in the 8th century. As mentioned earlier, the original work of Ibn Ishaq is lost, and what we know of it largely comes through the later scholar Ibn Hisham, who edited and abridged it, and Al-Tabari, who quoted from it in his own historical works.
      Ibn Kathir's Sīra: Ibn Kathir wrote his own separate biography of the Prophet, called Al-Sira al-Nabawiyya (which is the actual mistake we have made in the video, I dont know where was my mind when I was writing it). Ibn Kathir's work, written in the 14th century, was not a revision or continuation of Ibn Ishaq’s work, but rather his own independent composition. However, Ibn Kathir does frequently cite Ibn Ishaq's material, along with other sources, and often evaluates or criticizes Ibn Ishaq’s narrations based on hadith standards of authenticity.
      So, while Ibn Kathir uses Ibn Ishaq’s biography as a source among others, he wrote a distinct book with his own analysis and additional references. They are not the same book, but two separate works from different periods.
      When talking about Ibn Kathir, it refers to Al-Sira al-Nabawiyya.
      We will write a comprehensive list in the pinned comment above to show our mistakes and put your name for the contribution.
      Thank you

    As a Muslim watching this video, based on my understanding, the Kaabah outside of Mecca is not truly the Kaabah. Instead, it represents the original teachings of Allah’s religion, the faith of Prophet Ibrahim (Hanif Religion), but it was later added to by the Arabs before Islam, who constructed a structure resembling the Kaabah and claimed it to be the original Kaabah. I hold firmly to my belief that the original Kaabah is in Mecca, and the Black Stone was not originally black; during Prophet Ibrahim’s time, the stone was white. I do not worship the stone; even if the stone or the Kaabah were no longer there, I would still direct my worship toward the Kaabah in Mecca because that is Allah’s command. If Allah were to command a change of direction-even to Antarctica-I would follow it, as long as the command comes through His messenger.

      Hey Abhinnakhale,
      Thank you for the comment.
      Yes, "Syncretism" is the best word to describe it.
      The reason I did not use it is because the script is already severely loaded with unusual words, Arabic words and more. As such, as this content is not intended to reach only students who are already familiar with these terms, I try to make it simpler by not adding too many academic words, and avoid making it too boring. As many people are not familiar with words such as "Syncretism", an option is to write between commas a quick explanation. But if we are to do this for every other academic term, it would make the video inevitably way, unnecessarily, longer.
      There are many terms that could have been used in this video. I tried my best to maintain efficiency for every sentence without making the viewer feel too much pain watching it :,).

    Growing up in evangelical Christianity, I take it for granted that I can dive deep into the history of the religion, and it’s really cool to see that same analysis applied to Islam since, in English at least, there’s not much of that (at least that isn’t tinged with Christian Islamophobia).
    On a side note, I’ve always thought the “360 statues” was supposed to refer to the year (365 days), and that maybe the pre-Islamic polytheism had a daily prayer aspect to it, which would be something else still present.

    • @VladRacovitaEN
      @VladRacovitaEN  2 месяца назад +3

      Hey SleepyPotterFan! the 360 statues, most likely, according to a British historian who's name I forgot (xD, sorry), refer to the Lunar calendar, which was widely used in Arabia back then, made of 12 months of 30 days each, so 360 statues. So your assumption is accurate. By the way, if you're interested in studying further the pre-islamic period, we have a giant documentary exactly on that here on our channel, called ''The Unbelievable Origins of Islam: From Stone Preaching Polytheism to Allah!''

    Well, according to Patricia Crone Mecca is not the birthplace of Islam. It wasn’t an oasis, a pilgrimage destination or even a stop for the caravans! Mecca is not mentioned on any map prior to the birth of the story of Islam! Nothing could be traded from Mecca, the city produced nothing ! Who built the Kaaba and why, remains a total mystery. Everything we know about Islam comes from a biography written by Ibn Ishaq written two hundred years after the death Muhammad in Badgdad under the Abbasid Khalifat. He claims that his biography was inspired by the work of Ibn Islam that no one has ever seen. Please also remind your viewers that “Muhammad” is not a name in the Hejaz. It’s a title. So we don’t know the name of the prophet of Islam!
