Maqam Ibrahim

The structure containing the Maqām

The Maqām Ibrāhīm (Arabic: مَقَام إِبْرَاهِيْم, lit.'Station of Abraham')[1][2] is a small square stone[3] associated with Ibrahim (Abraham), Ismail (Ishmael) and their building of the Kaaba in what is now the Great Mosque of Mecca in the Hejazi region of Saudi Arabia. According to Islamic tradition, the imprint on the stone came from Abraham's feet.[4][5]
