Moreover, since certain months of the year were regarded as sacred months in which there could be no bloodshed, the Arabs enjoyed peace and security for about a quarter of the year | English - Sahih International : Allah has made the Ka'bah the Sacred House standing for the people and [has sanctified] the sacred months and the sacrificial animals and the garlands [by which they are identified] That is so you may know that Allah knows what is in the heavens and what is in the earth and that Allah is Knowing of all things• Somali - Abduh : Wuxuu ka Yeelay ILaahay Kacbada Bayd Guriga Xurmada Leh Dhawridda dadka iyo Bilaha Xurmada leh iyo Hadyada iyo Tan la Calaameeyey Hadyada Darteed waana inaad Ogaataan in Eebe Ogyahay waxa ku Sugan Samooyinka iyo Dhulka iyo in Eebe wax kasta Ogyahay• During the several centuries of anarchy and disorder which preceded the advent of the Prophet peace be on him , the Arabs were themselves unaware of their own interests and seemed bent upon self-destruction |

Moreover, the security which reigned in the vicinity of the Ka'bah provided an impetus to creative literary activity, with the result that in the fairs held in the sacred territory, poets placed their poetic compositions before the audience, trying to excel one another |
God, however, was aware of their needs and requirements and by merely investing the Ka'bah with a central position in Arabia He ensured their national survival.
14Demikian itu peraturan yang telah disebutkan itu agar kamu tahu, bahwa sesungguhnya Allah mengetahui apa yang ada di langit dan apa yang ada di bumi dan bahwa sesungguhnya Allah Maha Mengetahui segala sesuatu karena sesungguhnya Ia telah menjadikan peraturan tersebut demi kemaslahatan kamu dan demi untuk menolak mara bahaya dari dirimu sebelum segala sesuatunya terjadi; hal ini jelas menunjukkan pengetahuan Allah yang mencakup semua yang ada dalam alam wujud ini dan semua yang sedang berlangsung | Menurut suatu qiraat dibaca qiyaman tanpa alif panjang yang berakar dari kata qaama tanpa dii'lalkan dan bulan haram yang dimaksud adalah bulan-bulan haram seperti Zulkaidah, Zulhijah, Muharam dan Rajab sebagai pusat kegiatan mereka dalam mengamankan lingkungan dan tidak boleh melakukan peperangan dalam bulan-bulan tersebut dan hadya serta qalaid sebagai pertanda bagi semua orang bahwa kedua jenis hewan kurban itu tidak boleh diganggu dan harus diamankan |

Thanks to its central position and its sanctity, it nurtured the economic and cultural life of the whole peninsula | It was during this period that caravans moved in freedom and with ease from one end of the peninsula to the other |
Thanks, again, to the peace and security which reigned in the sacred territory, it became a major centre of trade and commerce.
This enabled the people of various regions and tribes to establish social and cultural ties among themselves | |
