Dear Loki, thanks for the link. Those people how turned from Muslim to christain we called them (Murtad), those are soo in wrong, they should be killed...
May Allah bless us and our islamic countries of being like those people who lose there believe. I agee 100% that they even may not read the Holly Quran well & didn't follow what our prophet Muhammed (PBUH) said.
I can say they were muslims by name only!
May Allah saves us!

Dear galaxy,
About Bible & Ahmed,
I will check again & I will ask our "Shekh" about the story, I might be wrong in thinking that it was in the real Bible by my OWN MISTAKE !
I learned the story many years ago. I will check to be sure then I will come again & reply.
Ok galaxy.
I think after 2 weeks coz nowadays I have university exams.
About Mecca & Ibrahim:
Dear galaxy, we can't say somthing until it is wrote in Quran, so I will prove in by putting Aayas from Some Suras in Quran.
galaxy, I will then put some links at the end for (Tafsir) > the explanation who was written by "Ibn Kathir", ok?
(I have a book about all the prophets in Arabic & I have the whole story about Ibahim & the bulid of the (home) (Kaaba).. it is in front of me. I searched the translated of some Ayyas in a trusted sites so I will wirte in down here).
(Allah told us in Quran about how the the Kaaba been bulit)
Allah said in:
Sura (Al-Hajj)
Surah 22
Ayya 26 & 27
26 And (remember) when We showed Ibrahim (Abraham) the site of the (Sacred) House (the Ka'bah at Makkah) (saying): "Associate not anything (in worship) with Me, [La ilaha ill-Allah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah Islamic Monotheism], and sanctify My House for those who circumambulate it, and those who stand up for prayer, and those who bow (submit themselves with humility and obedience to Allah), and make prostration (in prayer, etc.);"
27 And proclaim to mankind the Hajj (pilgrimage). They will come to you on foot and on every lean camel, they will come from every deep and distant (wide) mountain highway (to perform Hajj).
----------------------------------------
And Allah also said in:
Sura (Al-'Imran)
Surah 3
Ayya 96 & 97
96 Verily, the first House (of worship) appointed for mankind was that at Bakkah (Makkah), full of blessing, and a guidance for Al-'Alamin (the mankind and jinns).
97 In it are manifest signs (for example), the Maqam (place) of Ibrahim (Abraham); whosoever enters it, he attains security. And Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah) to the House (Ka'bah) is a duty that mankind owes to Allah, those who can afford the expenses (for one's conveyance, provision and residence); and whoever disbelieves [i.e. denies Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah), then he is a disbeliever of Allah], then Allah stands not in need of any of the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns).
Dear galaxy,
First Allah said, (In it are manifest signs) then Allah continues by saying
(the Maqam (place) of Ibrahim (Abraham)), So, this is very clear that Mecca was built by Ibrahim.
Do you know that (the Station of Abraham) > Is still in Mecca! If you were muslim you can enter Mecca and see in by your own eyes!
ok, I will continue proving from the Holly Quran,
-------------------------------------
And Allah also said in:
Sura (Al-Baqarah)
Surah 2
Ayya 124 to 129
124 And (remember) when the Lord of Ibrahim (Abraham) [i.e., Allah] tried him with (certain) Commands, which he fulfilled. He (Allah) said (to him), "Verily, I am going to make you a leader (Prophet) of mankind." [Ibrahim (Abraham)] said, "And of my offspring (to make leaders)." (Allah) said, "My Covenant (Prophethood, etc.) includes not Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers)."
125 And (remember) when We made the House (the Ka'bah at Makkah) a place of resort for mankind and a place of safety. And take you (people) the Maqam (place) of Ibrahim (Abraham) [or the stone on which Ibrahim (Abraham) stood while he was building the Ka'bah] as a place of prayer (for some of your prayers, e.g. two Rak'at after the Tawaf of the Ka'bah at Makkah), and We commanded Ibrahim (Abraham) and Isma'il (Ishmael) that they should purify My House (the Ka'bah at Makkah) for those who are circumambulating it, or staying (I'tikaf), or bowing or prostrating themselves (there, in prayer).
126 And (remember) when Ibrahim (Abraham) said, "My Lord, make this city (Makkah) a place of security and provide its people with fruits, such of them as believe in Allah and the Last Day." He (Allah) answered: "As for him who disbelieves, I shall leave him in contentment for a while, then I shall compel him to the torment of the Fire, and worst indeed is that destination!"
127 And (remember) when Ibrahim (Abraham) and (his son) Isma'il (Ishmael) were raising the foundations of the House (the Ka'bah at Makkah), (saying), "Our Lord! Accept (this service) from us. Verily! You are the All-Hearer, the All-Knower."
128 "Our Lord! And make us submissive unto You and of our offspring a nation submissive unto You, and show us our Manasik>(all the ceremonies of pilgrimage - Hajj and 'Umrah, etc.), and accept our repentance. Truly, You are the One Who accepts repentance, the Most Merciful.
129 "Our Lord! Send amongst them a Messenger of their own (and indeed Allah answered their invocation by sending Muhammad Peace be upon him ), who shall recite unto them Your Verses and instruct them in the Book (this Qur'an) and Al-Hikmah (full knowledge of the Islamic laws and jurisprudence or wisdom or Prophethood, etc.), and sanctify them. Verily! You are the All-Mighty, the All-Wise."

Dear galaxy I am writing only the Ayyas the related to the built of Kaaba, ok.... I will continue
After what Ibarhim said to Allah, Then Allah respond to him. Allah said in...
Sura (Al-Ankabut)
Surah 29
Ayya 67
67 Have they not seen that We have made (Makkah) a sanctuary secure, and that men are being snatched away from all around them? Then do they believe in Batil (falsehood - polytheism, idols and all deities other than Allah), and deny (become ingrate for) the Graces of Allah?
and Allah said in
Sura (Al-Qasas)
Surah 28
Ayya 57
57 And they say: "If we follow the guidance with you, we would be snatched away from our land." Have We not established for them a secure sanctuary (Makkah), to which are brought fruits of all kinds, a provision from Ourselves, but most of them know not.
