Ibn Khatal

Did Muhammad Respect the Holiness of the Ka'ba?

Ibn Kammuna Note: the author would like to thank FFI readers Komal, Focussed, and Ibrahim for suggesting valuable improvements that were integrated into this article. In this article, I discuss the killing of Ibn Khatal the day the prophet of peace entered Mecca in a victorious manner. Did Muhammad Respect the Holiness of the Ka'ba? What would you think about one of the holiest men of our time if he committed a bloody murder in the holiest of temples?
