Surat 'Āli `Imrān (Family of Imran) -3: 96, 97)
Translation:
Indeed, the first House [of worship] established for mankind was that at Makkah -
blessed and a guidance for the worlds. 96
In it are clear signs [such as] the standing place of Abraham. And whoever enters
it shall be safe. And [due] to Allah from the people is a pilgrimage to the House -
for whoever is able to find thereto a way. But whoever disbelieves - then indeed,
Allah is free from need of the worlds. 97
