Ali 'Imran 3:97 فيه ايات بينات مقام ابراهيم ومن دخله كان امنا ولله على الناس حج البيت من استطاع اليه سبيلا ومن كفر فان الله غني عن العالمين ٩٧
فِيهِ
ءَايَٰتُۢ
بَيِّنَٰتٞ
مَّقَامُ
إِبۡرَٰهِيمَۖ
وَمَن
دَخَلَهُۥ
كَانَ
ءَامِنٗاۗ
وَلِلَّهِ
عَلَى
ٱلنَّاسِ
حِجُّ
ٱلۡبَيۡتِ
مَنِ
ٱسۡتَطَاعَ
إِلَيۡهِ
سَبِيلٗاۚ
وَمَن
كَفَرَ
فَإِنَّ
ٱللَّهَ
غَنِيٌّ
عَنِ
ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ

In it are Signs Manifest; (for example), the Station of Abraham; whoever enters it attains security; Pilgrimage thereto is a duty men owe to Allah,- those who can afford the journey; but if any deny faith, Allah stands not in need of any of His creatures.

Ibn Kathir (Abridged)
The Ka`bah is the First House of Worship
Allah said,
إِنَّ أَوَّلَ بَيْتٍ وُضِعَ لِلنَّاسِ
(Verily, the first House appointed for mankind) for all people, for their acts of worship and religious rituals. They go around the House in Tawaf, pray in its vicinity and remain in its area in I`tikaf.
