 According to Islamic tradition, a prayer in the masjid is equal to 100,000 prayers in any other masjid around the world.There is a difference of opinion between Islamic scholars upon who first built the Ka'bah, some believe it was built by the angels while others believe it was built by Adam.Regardless, it was built several times before reaching its current state, the most famous of these renovations being the one by Abraham (Ibrahim in Islamic tradition).
