Praying to Allah & targetting towards the Kaaba

Most People who don't know islam think that Muslims are praying to the Kaaba, but the fact is that the Kaaba is just a direction & a target to union all the muslims in the world, the numerous muslims in the whole wide world are targetting to one point on the earth.

The whole intention is towrards Allah, Muslims first were praying towards Al-Aqsa Masjid in Jerusalem, and people in makkah argue with the prophet about that (they say why the direction moved from al aqsa to al kaaba)

Then Allah answered ..( The ignorants among the people will say: “What has turned themfrom their qiblah which they had? Say: The East and the West belongonly to Allåh; He guides whom Hepleases to the right path) "baqara 142"

So the concept is not about makkah or the place, the concept is about ONE direction for all muslims regardless of the targetting point.. Kaaba was present before Islam many years ago, and it wasn't a qebla at all, it was for hajj but not for qebla and praying, and the prophet was praying in the open and he was looking at the sky so god made the qebla to direct us all to one direction.

Allah said about that.. (Indeed We see the turning of thy face to the sky, so We shall surely make thee master of the qiblah which thou likest;a turn then thy face towards the Sacred Mosque. And wherever you are turn your faces towards it.) "baqara 144"

Some other people say that people were praying to the sun, and then they prayed to the sky then to the Kaaba, No ! Muslims were neither praying to the sun nor the sky, it doesn't mean that the prophet Muhammad (saaws) was looking to the sky that he was praying to the sky, he was looking for a direction to speak to god and how to speak to god....that's it..
