«The Kaaba Or "Cube": From Pagan Shrine to "Monotheism" – A History of Fire, Destruction, & The Black Rock That Spent 23 Years in a Poop Tank! — By Obadia Emetiel: https://facebook.com/share/1J4o55tXUF
If Allah truly had a "house on Earth," then he must be the worst landlord in history—because the Kaaba has been burned, destroyed, rebuilt, stolen from, attacked, and rebranded more times than a failed business. And yet, despite all this, Muslims still perform the exact same pagan rituals that Arabs were doing before Islam even existed! [Contd.] 1. The Kaaba's Pagan Beginnings: Where It All Started! Before Muhammad, Arab pagans worshipped hundreds of gods. The Kaaba was just one of many temples in the region. 360 idols were placed inside the Kaaba, belonging to different tribes.
The Black Stone was considered a fertility idol. Women used to rub menstrual blood on it, & men touched it with their private parts to increase virility. Arab pagans circled the Kaaba 7 times, just like Muslims do today. Nothing changed. The only difference is that Muhammad removed the smaller idols and kept the biggest one! 2. Muhammad Captures Mecca & "Islamizes" the Kaaba (630 AD): Muhammad & his army storm Mecca, take over the Kaaba, & destroy 359 idols—but he keeps one. The largest idol, which stood on top of the Kaaba, was not destroyed—instead, Muhammad gave it all the names of the broken idols & rebranded it. The same pagan rituals (circumambulation, kissing the Black Stone, & running between Safa & Marwa) were kept but declared "Islamic." Even the "Sahaba" (Muhammad's companions) were confused & asked why they were following pagan customs. Muhammad's answer? "This is how Allah wants it!" 3. 683 AD – The Kaaba Burns Down for the First Time: Only 51 years after Muhammad's death, Mecca rebels against the Caliph. So what happens? The Umayyad army lays siege to Mecca. The Kaaba catches fire & burns to the ground. The Black Stone cracks. The roof collapses. Allah's house? Couldn't even survive its first century. 4. 692 AD – The Kaaba Gets Destroyed Again: Less than 10 years later, another civil war erupts. The Umayyads launch catapults at the Kaaba. Its walls collapse. The Black Stone shatters even more. When the war is over, the Umayyads rebuild the Kaaba—but change its shape again, proving that even Muslims couldn't agree on what the "holy house" should look like! 5. 930 AD – The Most Humiliating Moment: The Black Stone Stolen & Kept in a Septic Tank full of human shit for 23 Years! In 930 AD, a radical Islamic sect, the Qarmatians, attacked Mecca. They slaughtered thousands of Muslim pilgrims, dumped their bodies into the Zamzam well, stole the Black Stone & took it to Bahrain, mocked the Muslims, saying: "Where is your Allah to protect his house?" But here's the best part: They threw the Black Stone into a sewage tank and kept it there for 23 years! Muslims had no choice but to pray toward an empty cube! After two decades, the Abbasids paid a ransom to get the Black Stone back, but it was already broken into pieces. They glued it together & added extra stones to hold it together. Today, when Muslims kiss the Black Stone, they're actually kissing a broken rock that was stored in human shit for two decades! 6. 1258 AD – The Kaaba Gets Flooded & Neglected: By the 13th century, Islam was collapsing. The Mongols invaded Baghdad & wiped out the Abbasid Caliphate. Mecca was abandoned & the Kaaba was neglected. In 1269 AD, massive floods damaged it again resulting in another rebuild, another change to its shape & structure! 7. The Ottomans Take Over & Keep Altering the Kaaba: By the 1500s, the Ottoman Empire controlled Mecca. They renovated the Kaaba again after more floods. They added a silver frame to the Black Stone because the broken stone pieces kept falling apart. They reinforced the walls, basically making another version of the Kaaba! 8. 1979 AD – The Grand Mosque Seizure: Iranian Khomeinists Hold the Kaaba Hostage! Even in modern times, the Kaaba wasn't safe. In 1979, an armed group of Iranian Khomeinist terrorists seized the Kaaba & held it for two weeks. Saudi Arabia had to call in French commandos (non-Muslims!) to free it. Imagine needing European soldiers to save Allah's house! The Irony: The Kaaba is Just a Pagan Cube That Keeps Getting Rebranded. After all this, let's ask: If the Kaaba is so "holy," why did Allah allow it to be burned, bombed, flooded, stolen from, & destroyed multiple times? Why did the Black Stone, the "sacred gift from Allah," spend 23 years in a tank full of human shit & come back in pieces? Why do Muslims still follow the exact same pagan rituals from pre-Islamic times? The truth is simple: The Kaaba was a pagan shrine before Muhammad, & it still remains a pagan shrine today. It was repeatedly destroyed & rebuilt, each time erasing a bit more of its polytheistic past to make it look "monotheistic." The Black Stone is just a broken rock that was once covered in menstrual blood & kept in a toilet! And today, Muslims still march around the cube, kiss the glued-together Black Stone, & pretend it's "pure monotheism." If that's monotheism, then I'm the King of Jupiter!

APPENDIX
Source: Google AI
«The Kaaba has been rebuilt or repaired up to a dozen times, with its shape notably changing between a rectangle & a square. Originally built, allegedly by the Prophet Abraham, as an unroofed rectangular structure, it was altered to a smaller, roofed square by the Quraysh and later back to its full rectangular foundation by Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr.
The architectural shape & features of the Kaaba have undergone several major shifts throughout history:
•The Original Structure: Built as an open-air rectangle with the stone wall of the Hateem integrated as part of the structure.
•The Pre-Islamic Quraysh Reconstruction (circa 608 AD): Due to limited funds from lawful earnings, the Quraysh could not rebuild on the full foundation. They shortened the building, making it a square structure and leaving the Hateem (or Hijr Ismail) outside the main walls. They also added a roof, closed one of the two doors, & raised the remaining door high off the ground to prevent unauthorized entry.
•Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr's Reconstruction (683 AD): Following fire damage, he rebuilt the Kaaba strictly according to the original, longer foundation. This returned the Kaaba to its rectangular shape, lowered the door to ground level, & restored the 2nd door.
•Umayyad Reconstruction (693 CE): After further damage, Umayyad Caliph Al-Hajjaj demolished the extension added by Ibn al-Zubayr. He restored the structure to the smaller, cube-like square shape that the Quraysh had established. This square footprint has remained to the present day.
•Modern Renovations (1957 & 1996): Subsequent maintenance has focused on structural preservation rather than altering its shape. The 1996 renovation replaced the internal pillars, refreshed the mortar, and reinforced the foundation using modern engineering.»
