On the eastern corner of the Kaaba is a black stone encased in a ring of silver. This stone is revered as an Islamic relic, that is said to date back to the time of Adam and Eve. Muslims believe that Adam received this stone from Allah (swt) and incorporated it in an alter for worship. Later, the archangel Gabriel gave the stone to Ibrahim, and he used it in an alter as well – the same alter where Allah (swt) tested his devotion by asking him to sacrifice his son.
