This is a question I have had in mind. The Silver Casing of the Black Stone , which billions of pillgrims kiss and touch, has been replaced for centuries. However this is about its design. As is evident, the design resembles a womans you-know-what. so has this design been maintained since pre-islamic times? what is the reason for this design? Is it remnants of Ancient pre-islamic fertility symbol ??

Lots of information on the web about the origin and traditions surrounding the stone and the rituals originally practised around it! |
