Have you ever heard of a house in a deserted place built thousands of
years ago, and has no greenery or any of the physical charms, yet for
thousands of years people all around the world go there in thousands.
Moreover, those leaving that house will immediately long to come again.
It is Makkah or as the westerns say Mecca. The word 'mecca' coined
in English dictionary to mean a place of attraction. Here is an entry
in Webster dictionary for mecca: a center of activity sought as a goal
by people sharing a common interest.
In this article, I will first show some significance of Makkah taken
from Quran and Hadith of our Prophet -peace be upon him. Then, I will
show how this City was clearly mentioned in Bible, yet the Bible
interpreters deny. I will quote two chapters from Bible, Revelation 21
and Isaiah 60.
