"If Muhammad had wanted to restrict the original meaning to either the Ka'bah or the Qiblih, why didn't He say so?"
Dear Don, Might one rather ask if He meant any house of worship, why would He have put it in the singular rather than the plural? "I.e. had the Ka'bah been cleansed and where was the Qiblih?" I'm not sure it had to be. It was still considered a sacred site. As for the qiblih, I'm not sure they had Salat during the Meccan period. warmest, Susan __________________________________________________ You are subscribed to Baha'i Studies as: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Baha'i Studies is available through the following: Mail - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Web - http://list.jccc.edu/read/?forum=bahai-st News - news://list.jccc.edu/bahai-st Public - http://www.escribe.com/religion/bahaist Old Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] New Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
