History
1 answer:
andrey2020 [161]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

It is largely because of Mecca and Medina, which are deemed to be sacred cities, cherished by a billion Muslims across the globe. Mecca is home of the Kaabah situated in Masjidul Haram. It is a cubical building, which was initially built by Prophet Ibrahim, and his son, Ismaeel.

Explanation:

It is the holiest of Muslim cities. Muhammad, the founder of Islam, was born in Mecca, and it is toward this religious centre that Muslims turn five times daily in prayer (see qiblah). All devout and able Muslims attempt a hajj (pilgrimage) to Mecca at least once in their lifetime.

ANEK [815]

Answer:

Francisco Coronado was born in Salamanca, Spain in 1510 and came to Mexico in 1535. He was a Spanish conqueror, or conquistador who visited New Mexico and other parts of what are now the southwestern United States and hoped to conquer the seven cities of gold. In 1540 he was sent to find these cities but discovered them to be only poor Indian pueblos in what is now New Mexico. In 1541 Coronado went to look for "Quivira," a land said to be rich in gold. He reached what is now eastern Kansas, but found only Indian villages. Fransisco's expeditions failed to produce gold. Coronado and his men returned to Mexico in 1542. Some of his men discovered the Grand Canyon of the Colorado.
