KAABA-The house of Allah in makkah....
The Kaaba is covered by a black cloth known as "KISWAH" which is produced and changed every year. There is a special factory designed for the making of KISWA in makkah. It costs approximately SR 17 million. "KISWAH" is made of approx 670 kgs of pure white silk and 150 kg of gold and silver. For embroidery 15 kilos of gold threads are used. The kiswah is wrapped around the Kaaba and fixed to the ground with copper rings. The total area of the cloth is 658 sqr meter. Shukran Nadeem Warsi
