Through his YouTube channel, Ustaz Adi Hidayat said that at that time during the time of Noah, a big flood hit the Kaaba and damaged the roof. Where the disaster destroyed most of Noah's generation.
The Kaaba has existed since the Prophet Adam was revealed, as in the Quran Surah Ali-Imran verse 96.
إِنَّ أَوَّلَ بَيْتٍ وُضِعَ لِلنَّاسِ لَلَّذِي بِبَكَّةَ مُبَارَكًا وَهُدًى لِلْعَالَمِينَ
"Indeed, the first house built for (a place of worship) for humans is the Baitullah in Bakkah (Mecca) which is blessed and a guide for all mankind."
Then the remaining generation of Noah spread to all corners to Mesopotamia, Iraq. Ancient civilization, but the kingdom led by King Namrud was already advanced. There was also spread worship of statues, even more creative creations. Once it came to the time in Mesopotamia, Prophet Ibrahim was revealed.
It is known that when Prophet Ibrahim was still young, he destroyed the statues until he was finally burned and then saved by Allah by making the fire cool.
Prophet Ibrahim then had a child from Siti Hajar, namely Prophet Ismail. There are two interesting sides. At that time, Prophet Ibrahim and Ishmael received a task from Allah to re-elevate the foundation of the Kaaba which was destroyed during the great flood.
But on the other hand, the place left by Prophet Abraham, namely Mesopotamia, is the area of the statue makers. Furthermore, when both of them raised the building of the Kaaba, they also prayed that Allah would send down the last Apostle, the seal of the prophets near the Kaaba.
Generations continued until Solomon, but at that time there were still idol worshippers. Solomon finally made statues that were not in the form of humans or walking creatures in short.
Like the shape of a tree, tall buildings, which are allowed in Islam, to decorate his palace as enshrined in the letter Saba.
"So it's impressive that these tablets are allowed like this, not in the context of being worshiped by humans,"
In the middle period between the time of Prophet Ismail in Mecca to the time of Prophet Muhammad . There was a time of thousands of years between the two, and at that time around the Kaaba appeared idol worshipers.
At first, he was Amr bin Luhay, a philanthropist who liked to donate, give alms, a businessman, but he was a layman in religion who traveled to Yemen, to Sham.
There it turns out that there are many statues, while the understanding is that the land of Sham is the land of the prophets. "Because he is a layman in terms of religion, he interprets because this is the land of the prophets, maybe this is what these gods mean," he continued.
Amr bin Luhay's business brain was running, in the end he brought the statues to Mecca to be informed to the residents as well as sold. Because Amr bin Luhay reported that in the land of the prophets their god was in the form of an image.
In addition, so that more people of Sham come to Mecca because the statues are also there. The people of Mecca who saw the figure of Amr bin Luhay as a good person and liked to give alms then they believed it, because they were both laymen.
The distance from Prophet Ismail to Prophet Muhammad is 29 generations, to show how the influence occurred in the years that passed.
The statues later became popular in Mecca, even many other types of statues came and were placed near the Kaaba. "So each region has its own statue, its icon. So every funny tribe put a statue in the Kaaba, "
However, the statues were later removed by order of the Prophet Muhammad in the event of Fathu Mecca. At that time the Messenger of Allah just looked and did not want to enter the inside of the Kaaba because there was a statue in it.
The statues are a sign of the power of each tribe, there is the highest they collected and included in the Kaaba.
"This is the origin of the Kaaba containing statues until later the period of the birth of the Prophet Muhammad. Including the statues of Jesus and Mary, it is in Al Bukhari (narrated hadith),"
However, all the statues were issued by order of the Prophet Muhammad in the Fathu Mecca incident, even when the Prophet just looked and did not want to enter the inside of the Kaaba because there was a statue in it.
Until all the statues are removed, the Messenger of Allah enters them.***
