Internal staircase of Ka'ba is a fixed staircase inside the Ka'ba, located in the Syrian rukn, which is used to ascend to the roof of the Ka'ba. This staircase was first made of wood by the Quraysh during the reconstruction of the Kaaba five years before the Prophethood. This staircase has been rebuilt, repaired, and replaced several times throughout different historical periods. Abdullah b. al-Zubayr, Al-Hajjaj b. Yusuf al-Thaqafi, Al-Mutawakkil Abbasi, and the Ottoman kings were some of the individuals involved. The latest internal staircase of the Ka'ba was constructed during the reign of King Fahd of Saudi Arabia. The entrance to this staircase is a locked door adorned with gold and silver designs.
