Why does Quran claim Abraham built the Kaaba when he never went anywhere near Me

[PeteWaldo]

Dear Shau Sumar, your maps regarding the location of the Wilderness of Paran as Mecca are ridiculous. The following shows both the traditional and alternate considerations for the location of the Wilderness of Paran. Still over 1,000 KM from where Mecca was eventually established in about the 4th century AD.



Let alone that there is not a shred of evidence that supports the unhistorical, counter-scriptural, archaeologically devoid and geographically impossible accounts of Abraham in Islamic so-called “tradition”, that was all created and put to the pen during the 8th to 10th centuries AD without reference to any actual historical record that preceded the 5th century AD. Overland travel wasn’t even possible to southern Arabia until the 6th century BC, well over 1,000 years after Abraham roamed the earth.

Hi Gregory. There are no Biblical sources that show evidence that Abraham ever went to Mecca. False presumptions doing equal evidence. Like Psalms 84 that is cited ad nauseum to suggest God’s people went on pilgrimage to Mecca when the passage place-pins the pilgrimage “in Zion”. That verse is usually edited out of Islamic accounts. Nor would it have been possible as overland travel to southern Arabia was not possible until the route was established in about the 6th century BC. Well over 1,000 years after Abraham roamed the earth. Let alone that the kaaba did not exist before Yemeni pagans initially built it in the early 5th century AD for Arabian moon, sun, star and jinn-devil worship.
