Baca Is Mecca
The Holy Ka'bah built by Abraham and his son
Ishmael is in Mecca.
This name Mecca (Makkah) has been mentioned
one time in the Holy Quran in Surah 48:24. Another name for Mecca
is Bakka, depending on the dialect of the tribe. I his also has been
mentioned one time, in Surah 3:96: "Verily, the first House [of worship]
appointed for mankind was that in Bakka [Mecca], full of blessing, and
guidance for all people." Amazing enough, this word Bakka was mentioned
by Prophet David [PBUH] in his Psalm 84:6: "Who passing through the valley
of Baca make it a well, the rain also filleth the pools." The well here
is the well-known well of Zamzam, still present now, close to, the Ka'bah.
The House of My Glory
Isaiah, chapter 60:
-
"Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and
the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee." Compare with Surah 74:1-3: "O,
you [Muhammad], wrapped up in garments! Arise and warn! And
your Lord magnify!"
-
"For, behold, the darkness shall cover the
earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee,
and his glory shall be seen upon thee." The advent of Prophet Muhammad
[PBUH] was at a time of darkness when the world forgot the Oneness of God
as caught by Abraham and all other Prophets including Jesus.
-
"And the Gentiles shall come to thy light,
and kings to the brightness of thy rising."
-
"Lift up thine eyes round about, and see:
all they gather themselves together, they come to thee:…" Within less than
twenty-three years the whole of Arabia was united.
-
“ …because the abundance of the sea shall
be converted unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee."
Within less than a century Islam spread out of Arabia to other countries.
-
"The multitude of camels shall cover thee,
the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come, they
shall bring gold and incense; and they shall shew forth the praises of
the Lord."
-
"All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered
together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee: they
shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house
of my glory." The tribes of Kedar (Arabia) who were divided were then united.
"The house of my glory" referred here to the House of Allah in Mecca and
not the Church of Christ as thought by Christian commentators. It
is a fact that the villages of Kedar (now whole Saudi Arabia at least)
are the only country of the world which remains impenetrable to any influence
of the Church.
-
"Therefore thy gates shall be open continually:
they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring unto thee the
forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought." It is a fact
that the mosque surrounding the Holy Ka'bah in Mecca has remained open
day and night since it was cleansed by Prophet Muhammad [PBUH] from the
idols 1400 years ago. Rulers as well as subjects came for Pilgrimage.
