Black Stone in the Mirror of History Part 1

        The Black Stone is a combination of two Arabic words. Stone is called stone in Arabic and black is used for black and black. The Black Stone is the black stone on the southeast wall of the Kaaba. It currently consists of three large and several small pieces of different shapes. The pieces are connected in a circle about two and a half feet in diameter, surrounded by a silver circle. Muslims who go for Hajj or Umrah must kiss the Black Stone every time they perform Tawaf. If the crowd is large, a kiss can be given with a hand gesture. Which is called istlam.

                                History and events

        There are at least six incidents in history when the Black Stone was stolen and an attempt was made to break it. The number of accidents may be even higher. According to Islamic traditions, when Hazrat Ibrahim and his son Hazrat Ismail Khana Kaaba Were building. So Gabriel brought this stone from heaven which Hazrat Ibrahim installed in the wall of Kaaba with his own hands.

1. The first tribe after the Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him) to be found is the Bani Jarham, who tampered with the Black Stone. History has it that when Banu Bakr ibn Abd al-Manah removed the Qiblah "Jarham" from Mecca When they were forced out of Mecca, they removed the "Black Stone" from the wall of the Ka'bah with two gold deer and placed it in the well of Zamzam and forced them to leave for Yemen. See the wisdom of Allah Almighty that this stone did not stay in the well of Zamzam for a long time - while the people of Banu Jarham were hiding the Black Stone in the well of Zamzam, a woman saw them doing so - this woman pointed out But the Black Stone was recovered from the well of Zamzam.

2- The Qara Ma Tin led by a man named Abu Tahir besieged Makkah in 317 AH and killed about seven hundred people at a holy place like Masjid al-Haram and the well of Zamzam and the premises of Masjid al-Haram. Filled with human corpses and blood - he then looted the valuables of the people of Makkah and the jewels kept in the Ka'bah - he tore the shroud of the Ka'bah and distributed it among his followers - the gates of the Ka'bah and The drain was uprooted on its golden floor - and then the matter did not end there. On 7 Zul-Hijjah 317 AH, Abu Tahir separated the Black Stone from the wall of the Kaaba and left its place empty. It is said that he moved there - it was a very painful period of the Black Stone - the Black Stone remained separated from the wall of the Ka'bah for about 22 years - during this period those who circumambulated the Ka'bah only kissed its empty space or - Then look at the will of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala that 22 years later on 10 Dhu al-Hijjah 339 AH "Sunbar bin Hassan" who also belongs to the tribe of Qaramatin It was he who freed the Black Stone and reattached it to its original location - a question then arose as to whether it was really the Black Stone or not. He said that he would test him and tell him whether this is the real Black Stone or not because he has studied the hadiths about it. If he set fire to the Black Stone, then the Black Stone did not catch fire and neither did he. It warmed up - then he submerged it in water so that despite being a rock it did not sink in the water against its character but floated on the surface of the water - it showed that it is the real rock of heaven because heaven What does stone have to do with fire and drowning?
