Numerous narrations suggest that initially, the location of the Ka'ba was not known to Abraham, and it was Gabriel who taught him the place to build it.<ref>Qummī, ''Tafsīr al-Qummī'', vol. 1, p. 62; Ṭabrisī, ''Majmaʿ al-bayān fī tafsīr al-Qurʾān'', vol. 1, p. 389; Majlisī, ''Biḥār al-anwār'', vol. 96, p. 38.</ref> | Numerous narrations suggest that initially, the location of the Ka'ba was not known to Abraham, and it was Gabriel who taught him the place to build it.<ref>Qummī, ''Tafsīr al-Qummī'', vol. 1, p. 62; Ṭabrisī, ''Majmaʿ al-bayān fī tafsīr al-Qurʾān'', vol. 1, p. 389; Majlisī, ''Biḥār al-anwār'', vol. 96, p. 38.</ref> | ||

In some narratives, assistance from angels to them is also mentioned.<ref>ʿAynī, ''ʿUmdat al-qarī; Sharḥ ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī'', vol. 9, p. 213.</ref>The building materials were a type of red brick or stone brought from five different mountains surrounding the Kaaba, and according to one narrative, they were brought from the [[Mount Tuwa]].<ref>Qummī, ''Tafsīr al-Qummī'', vol. 1, p. 62; ʿAynī, ''ʿUmdat al-qarī; Sharḥ ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī'', vol. 9, p. 213; Fayḍ al-Kāshānī, ''Tafsīr al-Ṣāfī'', vol. 1, p. 189.</ref> | |||
==Maqam Ibrahim== | |||
The [[Maqam Ibrahim]](Station of Abraham) next to the Ka'ba is another trace of Abraham: "وَإِذ جَعَلنَا البَیتَ مَثَابَةً لِّلنَّاسِ وَأَمْنًا وَاتَّخِذُوا مِن مَّقَامِ إِبرَاهِیمَ مُصَلًّی Thus we set up the House as a resort for mankind and a sanctuary, and [said]: "Adopt Abraham's station as a place for prayer.<ref>Quran: 2:125.</ref> | |||
It is said that this is the same stone that he placed under his feet when building the Ka'ba. Some have also considered the Ka'ba itself as the Station of Abraham.<ref>Ṭabarī, ''Jāmiʾ al-bayān fi tafsīr al-Qurʾān'', vol. 1, p. 746-747; Fakhr al-Rāzī, ''Al-Tafsīr al-Kabīr'', vol. 4, p. 54.</ref> | |||
==Calling people to Hajj== | |||
According to narratives, after the construction of the Ka'ba, Abraham was commanded by God to call upon the people for [[Hajj]]: (وأَذِّن فی النّاسِ بِالحَجّ... "and proclaim among men the Pilgrimage, ...")<ref>Quran: 22:27.</ref> | |||
He stood on [[Mount Abu Qubays]], placing his hand on his ear and cried out: "O people! Answer the call of your Lord." [[The tribe of Jurhum]], a Yemeni tribe, were the first to respond to his call.<ref>Kulaynī, ''Al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 205; ʿAynī, ''ʿUmdat al-qarī'', vol. 9, p. 128; Ḥurr al-ʿĀmilī, ''Wasāʾil al-Shīʿa'', vol. 11, p. 15.</ref> | |||
==Abraham's Hajj== | |||
From the apparent meaning of the Quranic verses, it is understood that Abraham was not familiar with the [[Rites of Hajj al-Tamattu'|rituals of Hajj]]. Therefore, he asked God to teach him: (... وأَرِنا مَناسِکنا..."...Show us our ceremonies...")<ref>Quran: 2:128.</ref> | |||
Scholars of narrations have mentioned that Gabriel taught the rituals of Hajj to Abraham.<ref>Ibn Kathīr al-Dimashqī, ''Qiṣaṣ al-anbīyā'', vol. 1, p. 189; Suyūṭī, ''Al-Durr al-manthūr fī tafsīr al-maʾthūr'', vol. 1, p. 137; Majlisī, ''Biḥār al-anwār'', vol. 12, p. 100.</ref> | |||
There is no specific report regarding the number of pilgrimages performed by Abraham; it is said that Abraham's first pilgrimage was after the construction of the [[Ka'ba|House of God]].<ref>Ibn Kathīr al-Dimashqī, ''Qiṣaṣ al-anbīyā'', vol. 1, p. 189; Majlisī, ''Biḥār al-anwār'', vol. 12, p. 100.</ref> | |||
This view is also supported by those who consider him as the founder of the [[Ka'ba]].<ref>Ṭūsī, ''Al-Tibyān fī tafsīr al-Qurʾān'', vol. 1, p. 462.</ref> | |||
However, there are narrations indicating that Abraham's first pilgrimage was before the construction of the Ka'ba.<ref>Kulaynī, ''Al-Kāfī'', vol. 4, p. 202-203.</ref> | |||
