| Islamic | The Koran (Al-Qur'an) | SECTION I. / SECTION II. / SECTION III / SECTION IV.; lines 5622-5672 | medium | Muslims are said to believe the Caaba is nearly coeval with the world: Adam, after expulsion from paradise, asked God for a building like the Beit al Mmr he had seen, toward which he might pray and which he might compass as angels do the celestial one; God sent down a representation in curtains of light and placed it in Mecca beneath the original. | record |
