Surah Al-Fath 48:24 ^{-Sahih International}
Surah Al Imran 3:96-97:
Surely the first House ˹of worship˺ established for humanity is the one at Bakkah—a blessed sanctuary and a guide for ˹all˺ people. In it are clear signs and the standing-place of Abraham. Whoever enters it should be safe. Pilgrimage to this House is an obligation by Allah upon whoever is able among the people. And whoever disbelieves, then surely Allah is not in need of ˹any of His˺ creation.

Genesis 21:14–21
Genesis 21:8–21
Genesis 21:15–19
Psalms 84:1–7 of the King James Version reads:
How amiable are thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the LORD: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.
Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God.
Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. Selah.
Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.
Who passing through the valley of the Bakha make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.
They go from strength to strength, till each appears before God in Zion.

Holland 2012, p. 359 (“It is hard to know which is the more perplexing: the complete lack of evidence in the Qur'an for any idol smashing on the part of Muhammad, or its portrait of the Mushrikun as owners of great herds of oxen, cows and sheep. Mecca, a place notoriously dry and barren, is not, most agronomists would agree, an obvious spot for cattle ranching—just as the volcanic dust that constitutes its soil is signally unsuited to making [to quote Qur’an 80:27-31] ‘grain grow, and vines, fresh vegetation, olive trees, date palms, luscious gardens, fruit and fodder.’”).
