An extremely important and unforgettable event has occurred in Uzbekistan's history — a complete section of the Kaaba's sacred cover (kiswah) from Saudi Arabia has been brought to our country. This unique artifact is planned to be displayed as a special exhibition at the Museum of the Center for Islamic Civilization.
The Kaaba is covered with a new kiswah every year, and it is a symbol of spiritual and sacred value for Muslims. Therefore, even a small piece of this cover holds immense significance in the Muslim world. The kiswah is always considered sacred and invaluable, and every piece of it carries great importance.
It is also worth mentioning that in February of this year, President Shavkat Mirziyoyev received a delegation led by the Minister of Hajj and Umrah of Saudi Arabia, Tawfiq bin Fawzan al-Rabiah. During this meeting, a precious gift from Saudi King Salman Al Saud to the people of Uzbekistan was handed over — a piece of the sacred Kaaba kiswah.
Over time, this artifact has been brought to Uzbekistan and is now being exhibited at the Center for Islamic Civilization. This important event not only highlights Uzbekistan's religious and cultural heritage but also symbolizes the strengthening of ties with Saudi Arabia.
The Center for Islamic Civilization has announced that this kiswah will be displayed at the museum and will be open to thousands of pilgrims and researchers. Through this important artifact, the history of the Muslim world and the symbolic value of cooperation with Saudi Arabia will be further illuminated.
