Kaaba, meaning “cube” in Arabic, is a black stone cube important to the Hajj. Furthermore, it’s the qibla, or direction, in which Muslims face for their prayers, taking place five times a day.
The word Allah is thought to be derived by contraction from al-ilāh. ʾIlāh (Arabic: إله; plural: آلهة ʾālihat) is an Arabic term meaning "god". In Arabic, ilah refers to anyone or anything that is worshipped. [1] The feminine is ʾilāhat (إلاهة, meaning "goddess"); with the article, it appears as al-ʾilāhat (الإلاهة).
The very term "Allah" itself is singular, and does not have a plural form in Arabic (unlike English, where "god" can be pluralized into "gods"). Allah is perceived by Muslims to be a unique, independent and indivisible being, who is utterly independent of and who precedes all of creation, having created all of it ex nihilo. [24]
