Abstract

Kâbe, İslâm inancına göre yeryüzünün ilk mabedidir. Müslümanların namaz ibadetinde bireysel veya cemaat halinde yöneldikleri kıbleleri, hac ibadetlerinde ümmet olarak buluştukları uluslararası buluşma mekânıdır. Tarihî süreç içerisinde dinî bir merkez olduğu kadar coğrafî, kültürel, ekonomik ve siyasî bir merkez olarak da rol oynamıştır. İslam tarihi kaynaklarında bu mabedin kainatla yaşıt olduğu ifade edilmekte ve kâinatın yaradılışından günümüze kadar Kâbe’nin on üç kere inşa edildiği kaydedilmektedir. Kutsal mabedin her bir inşası çok önemli ve özel içeriklere sahip olmakla birlikte, Hz. İbrâhim (as.), Kureyş, İbn Zübeyr, Haccâc b. Yusuf ve Sultan 4. Murad’ın Kabe’yi inşalarının hususiyetleri daha dikkat çekicidir. Çalışmamızda bu beş inşanın sebep, süreç ve sonuçları değerlendirilecek özellikle İslam tarihinin ilk üç asrında Kâbe’nin tarihi, mimarisi ve süslemeleri makalemizin ana teması olacaktır.

CONTEMPLATION ABOUT THE KAABA’S HISTORY, ARCHITECTURE, AND DECORATIONS IN THE FIRST THREE CENTURIES OF ISLAM

Year 2022, Volume: 12 Issue: 2, 717 - 735, 31.12.2022
https://doi.org/10.55179/dusbed.1191387

Abstract

The Kaaba is the first temple of the world according to the Islamic belief. It is the qibla, where Muslims face individually or as a group in prayer and the international meeting place where they meet as an ummah during pilgrimage. In the historical process, it has played a role as a geographical, cultural, economic and political center as well as a religious center. In Islamic historical literature, it is stated that this temple is as old as the universe, and that the Kaaba was constructed thirteen times from the creation of the universe to the present day. Although each construction of the holy temple has very important and special contents, the characteristics of Prophet Abraham, Quraysh, Ibn al-Zubayr, al-Ḥajjāj ibn Yūsuf, and Murad IV's constructions of the Kaaba are more remarkable. In our study, the reasons, the processes and the results of these five constructions are examined. The history, the architecture and the decorations of the Kaaba, especially in the first three centuries of Islamic history, will be the main themes of our article.
