The Kaaba

Muslims dont worship the kaaba.. We call it qibla. Muslims all praying towards the same point is traditionally considered to symbolize the unity of the Ummah , or all Muslims worldwide, under the Sharia (Law of God). It is fixed as the direction of the Kaaba in Mecca .

The Qiblah has importance beyond the prayers and plays a part in various ceremonies. The head of an animal that is slaughtered using halal methods is usually aligned with the Qiblah. After death, Muslims are usually buried with the body at right angles to the Qibla and the face turned right towards the direction of the Qiblah.

What's the interesting part? Look at the picture. There are millions of muslims from around the world, with the diversity of language, culture, age, and maybe intelligence. But 5 times a day they'd form hundreds of orderly row by only hear beautiful loud short calls, adhaan and iqama, that are delivered in arabic language -only-. Even though many of them do not speak arabic.
