Before the rise of Islam, the deserts of Arabia bore witness to a profound and mysterious form of worship: the veneration of meteorites. These celestial stones, seen as sacred gifts from the heavens, played a central role in shaping religious practices, myths, and community rituals across the Arabian Peninsula.

In The Divine Stones of Ancient Arabia, Aisha bint Umar al-Tamimiya delves deep into the cultural and spiritual world of Pre-Islamic Arabia. Through vivid historical accounts, archaeological discoveries, and comparative analysis with other ancient civilizations, this book uncovers how meteorite worship influenced tribal identities, power structures, and sacred spaces.

Exploring legendary artifacts like the Black Stone of the Kaaba and lesser-known cults scattered across the desert, the author presents a compelling narrative of how the awe of the cosmos forged a bridge between the earthly and the divine.

A must-read for anyone interested in ancient religions, Middle Eastern history, and the enduring human quest to find meaning in the stars.
