    The document discusses the Ka'bah, the cube-shaped building located in Mecca that Muslims face during daily prayers. It provides some history and context about the Ka'bah: - The earliest description is that it was a simple cubic building with stones piled without mortar, no higher than a person and no roof. - In pre-Islamic times it was a sacred site for Quraysh and other Arab tribes, but was not uniquely venerated as other sites also had religious significance. - The name "Ka'bah" comes from its cubic shape, though it is actually an irregular cube and this is obscured by being in a hollow and having a black covering.
