“In it are clear signs – the place where Ibrahim stood (is one of them); and whoever
enters it shall be safe; and performing the Hajj (pilgrimage) of this house, for the sake
of Allah, is a duty upon mankind, for those who can reach it; and whoever disbelieves
– then Allah is Independent of the entire creation!”
