Ibrahim & Ismaʿil عليهما السلام Build the Kaʿbah
This Sirah lesson tells the story of how Ibrahim & Ismaʿil عليهما السلام Build the Kaʿbah, it follows Prophet Ibrahim عليه السلام and his son Ismaʿil عليه السلام as they climb steep hills, carry heavy stones from the mountains, and raise the walls of the Kaʿbah with their own hands, for the sake of Allah alone.
When the walls grew too high to reach, Ismaʿil عليه السلام found a large stone for his father to stand on. That stone is Maqam Ibrahim, and it still stands beside the Kaʿbah today. Father and son made duʿa as they worked: “Our Lord, accept this from us. Indeed You are The All-Hearing, The All-Knowing.” Near the end, Allah sent a white stone from Jannah. They placed it carefully. Over time it turned black, and it is known today as al-Hajar al-Aswad, the Black Stone. The lesson ends with a question each child can sit with: what can you do with your family to make Allah happy?
