25 Mayıs 2026Al Jazeera

The Kaaba, a central symbol of Hajj, is covered by the Kiswah, a black silk cloth adorned with intricate gold and silver embroidery. Weighing 670kg, the Kiswah is a significant element of the pilgrimage, representing both spiritual and cultural heritage.
The craftsmanship involved in creating the Kiswah reflects the importance of the Kaaba in Islamic tradition.
The Kaaba is located in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, and is considered the most sacred site in Islam. Every year, millions of Muslims travel to perform Hajj, which includes rituals centered around the Kaaba.
The Kiswah not only serves as a physical covering for the Kaaba but also embodies the artistic and religious devotion of the Muslim community. Its materials and design highlight the intersection of faith and craftsmanship, making it a focal point during the Hajj pilgrimage.
