The Kaaba was set on fire and the Black Stone broke into three pieces.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pilgrimage to the holy site is considered as the core principle for all faiths. Mecca in Saudi Arabia is the holy shrine for Islam. The Kabba (Cube) - the square building draped with the silk and the cotton veil.

It is believed that the routine of Muslims praying 5 times a day will be directed to the Kabba. A Black stone will be present in the Kabba that was given by the angel called Gabriel to Abraham ( Ibrahim as by Muslims). During the war, the Mecca was under the control of Ibn Zubayr.

It is known that the Kabba was put down with fire and the Black stone was broken into 3 pieces. Then Ibn put the stone together with silver. Also, he built back the Kaaba with stone and wood the same with its original dimension given by Ibrahim. Later Malik rebuilds the building up to Muhhamed's thought.
