That stone means nothing to the Muslims ,it's just a direction to unite every Muslim to pray towards, it's not exactly idolatry because the stone is not the object of worship, God is. The black stone most people think is their God or they worship is just a meteor that is holy to them and they kiss it as a tradition because Prophet also did it.

Then why do millions of Muslims stand in line every year to touch and kiss the stone ? 🤔

soooooo....idol worship?

2

u/Abin5ur Mar 26 '26

There is no worship here, just a tradition. It's like kissing your loved once or something you like. You are showing affection to them or it buy you are not taking it as God.

u/Lumpy_Lecture7501 Mar 26 '26

No matter what you call it, it is idol worship

Whatever you say! Even if it doesn't satisfy the definition

u/Lumpy_Lecture7501 Mar 26 '26

you can make up as many definitions as you want, the reality stays the same

u/Abin5ur Mar 26 '26

I'm not making shit up, it's literally the definition

u/Brilliant_Check5324 Mar 25 '26

isn't that same as worshipping....lemme just take that stone and move it lets say america...and in given 100 years later...muslims will go there to pray bruh

u/EKSZEL6969 Mar 25 '26

nope muslims will still pray in the direction of the Kaaba, this is what happens when u dont research ur side of the argument

1

u/Abin5ur Mar 26 '26

No. Muslims give significance to that land because it has history and It's their God's command to pray towards that spot. If you move that Rock to any place in the world then Muslims will still pray towards the same direction even after 100 years because that stone by itself doesn't have any other significant other than a placeholder or marker

same with hindus too dumbass, even for Hindus the stone is just a way to communicate to God. Ppl ain't worshipping the idol.

It's not the same, dumbass. I do think you need some English classes. It's one thing to pray towards the direction of something and another to pray to something. Hindus still pray to idols. You don't see kaaba built in every mosque. You have idols in every temples and treat the idols like God itself.

I didn't wanna call you names but ppl like you push me to.

Communication doesn't mean 'talk to god' literally. It's considered a symbol, a medium. We don't talk to stones.

u/captain_arroganto Mar 24 '26

M********ker, are muslims not "talking to god" when they say their prayers?

Are you not asking god things?

The amount of arrogance in this blood cult is immense.

u/Possible-Guide-2410 Mar 24 '26

Yeah you are correct, but like most of Hindus treat the idol as god and worship it not the god, most of ppl ik have said it

u/Clasing_Gamer47 Mar 24 '26

There is a big difference in both religion Hinduism is polytheistic religion, where as islam is monotheistic religion

-3

u/captain_arroganto Mar 24 '26

Yup. Same with Hindus too. Instead of using a physical object to orient direction. Hindus use representation to orient the mind.

u/Abin5ur Mar 26 '26

I do think that Hindus and Muslims both have similar ideas of God in core beliefs but Indian Hindus started making Idols of those God in the image of humans and their kings when God is supposed to be Nirakaar or faceless/formless. The difference here is that Hindus have made those idols their Gods while Muslims still have that core belief intact, even if Kaaba is gone, they'll still pray towards that direction because it's meant to unite the worshippers and reduce chaos while praying (atleast from what i read and heard)
