Answer:
Why is Makkah important for Muslims?
Mecca is the place where the Islamic religion started. It is significant for two main reasons. Firstly, it is where the prophet Muhammad was born. Secondly, it is where he received the first revelations from Allah (Allah is the Arabic word for God) that went on to become the Koran - the holy book read by Muslims.
FACTS:
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.
