Allah’s Shins

How many are Allah’s shins?

Narrated Nafi: Abdullah bin Umar said:

Allah’s Messenger entered the Kaaba along with Usama bin Zaid, Bilal and Uthman bin Talha Al-Hajabi and closed the door and stayed there for some time.

I asked Bilal when he came out, “What did the Prophet do?”

He replied, “He offered prayer with one pillar to his left and one to his right and three behind.”

In those days the Kaba was supported by six pillars.

Malik said: “There were two pillars on his (the Prophet’s) right side.”

Sahih al-Bukhari 505
Stone pillars, not the palm wood pillars of the Kaaba
Allah’s shin – a wooden [palm] log

Thus, the “shins”, or pillars of the Kaaba, of Allah are six. This table shows the overhead view, with “(Pillar)” for each of the six pillars.

Allah’s shins are the pillars of the Kaaba of Muhammad’s time and place, and are normally covered by a cloth:

Muhammad was a false prophet, for a false god, Allah, for a false religion, Islam, without even a false book, the Koran.
