Mekkaa  is  a Hindu Religious Place – A Post in Web

This post is not an attempt to insult Hindus. I'm basically interested in getting Hindus point of view regarding what is posted below. For some reason it seems many Muslims hate Hindus. In fact, Muslims will often call a person a "Hindu" as a way to insult the person. I personally have no problem with Hindus--we should all try to live with each other in peace. I've done some research and it seems that Islam adopted a number of Hindu practices, which I enumerate below. So the next time Muslims try to insult Hindus just tell them that Islam stole from the Hindu religion. To begin, the black stone that Muslims idolize each year at Hajj is "pagan" in origin as it was idolized by pagans long before Mohammad came along. Actually, Islam has adopted some rituals from the Hindu faith, which is poetic justice as Muslims like to accuse people of being Hindu when they want to insult them. But the truth is that Islam and Hinduism share similarities which indicate that Islam adopted some aspects of the Hindu faith and other ancient religious practices. For example: 1. The black stone at Kaaba is held sacred and holy in Islam and is called "Hajre Aswad" from the Sanskrit word Sanghey Ashweta or Non-white stone. The Shiva Lingam is also called Sanghey Ashweta. So what is in Kaaba could be the same what Hindus worship. 2. The pedestal Maqam-E-Ibrahim at the centre of the Kaaba is octagonal in shape. In Hinduism, the pedestal of Brahma the creator is also octagonal in shape. 3. Muslim pilgrims visiting the Kaaba temple go around it seven times. In no other mosque does the circumambulation prevail. Hindus invariably circumambulate or Pradakshina, around their deities. This is yet another proof that the Kaaba shrine is pre-Islamic. 4. In Shiva temples Hindus always practice circumambulation or Pradakshina. Just as in Hinduism, the custom of circumambulation by muslim pilgrims around the entire Kaaba building seven times shows that the claim that in Islam they don’t worship stones is not true.
	5.Allah was one of the deities in Kaaba long before Islam was founded. It might come as a stunning revelation to many that the word ‘ALLAH’ itself is Sanskrit. In Sanskrit language Allah, Akka and Amba are synonyms. They signify a goddess or mother. The term ‘ALLAH’ forms part of Sanskrit chants invoking goddess Durga, also known as Bhavani, Chandi and Mahishasurmardini. The Islamic word for God is., therefore, not an innovation but the ancient Sanskrit appellation retained and continued by Islam. Allah means mother or goddess and mother goddess. 6. The King Vikramaditya inscription was found on a gold dish hung inside the Kaaba shrine in Mecca, proving beyond doubt that the Arabian Peninsula formed a part of his Indian Empire. 7. King Vikrama’s preachers had succeeded in spreading the Vedic Hindu sacred scriptures in Arabia and Arabs were once followers of the Indian Vedic way of life.(REMEMBER the number 786 on the Quran! HINDU!!) 8. The annual fair known as OKAJ which used to be held every year around the Kaaba temple in Mecca and the present annual hajj of the Muslims to the Kaaba is of earlier pre-Islamic congregation.. Even to this day ancient Siva emblems can be seen. It is the Shankara (Siva) stone that Muslim pilgrims reverently touch and kiss in the Kaaba. 9. Muslims shave their head and beard and don special sacred attire that consists of two seamless sheets of white cloth. One is to be worn round the waist and the other over the shoulders. Both these rites are remnants of the old Vedic practice of entering Hindu temples clean and with holy seamless white sheets.
