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.
Location and History
The internal staircase of the Ka'ba is located on the right side after entering the Ka'ba, in the Syrian rukn.[1] For the first time, during the reconstruction of the Ka'ba by the Quraysh, a wooden staircase for ascending to the roof of the Ka'ba was built five years before the Bi'tha.[2] The internal staircase of the Ka'ba has been repaired, rebuilt, and replaced several times throughout history. The list of these changes can be seen in the table below:***
Modern Internal Staircase
During the reign of King Fahd (1982-2005 CE), along with the repairs to the Kaaba, the internal staircase was also rebuilt using glass to increase the light inside the Kaaba. These renovations were completed in the year 1417 AH/1996-7.[3] Additionally, the entrance to this staircase is a locked door adorned with gold and silver designs.[4]
