Islam 101 Video

Use this exerpt from the Quran to answer the questions on the right (after the video questions).

"Allah: there is no true God but Him. The Ever-Living, the Eternal Master of all. Neither drowsiness nor sleep overtakes Him. His is all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth. Who is there that can intercede with Him, except by His permission? He knows all that lies open before them and all that lies hidden from them; whereas they cannot attain to anything of His knowledge save as He wills. His knowledge extends over the heavens and the earth, and the preservation of both does not tire Him. He is the Most High, the Most Great." (Quran 2:255)

Watch this video and then plot the location of the Kaaba (Holy Site Mosque) in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.
