Inside the Islamic Ka'bah at Mecca

The Ka'bah is that big "black cube" at Mecca that pilgrims rotate around. Ever wondered what it looks like inside? Wonder no more, my friends.

First, a shot of the outside:


Now, the anatomy if the Ka'bah:


Pretty neat, huh?

One of thoses things that I wanted to know so cheers mate S&F to be honest think that it is really full of false hopes and lies

I always wondered about the inside too
thanks for sharing
S&F for you too

i'm pretty sure there's a youtube video of it. it has a special rock in it. of course there's a story to the rock but what does it really matter.

The rock is probably a metorite, although it's never been scientifically examined. You can see it in the second pic: a small black object labeled "Hajar Aswad."

It was stolen once, in the 9th or 10th century I believe, by a radical sect called the Qarmatians (sp?). they eventually retuned it, but it had been broken into several pieces, and remains so to this day.
