Muslims, why did Allah associate himself with a black stone and a female vagina image in daily worship?
The actual existence of the Black Stone in worship clearly contradicted and rejected all claims for One Allah only in Islam. Can any Muslim resolve this stone issue in Islam?
For more details about this stone with various views from different Islamic founders, read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Stone
Muslims acted like robots and just repeated what Mohd did without knowing it. The second Caliph Umar ibn al-Khattab (580–644) came to kiss the Stone, he confessed, "No doubt, I know that you are a stone and can neither harm anyone nor benefit anyone. Had I not seen Allah's Messenger [Muhammad] kissing you, I would NOT have kissed you." However, in the hadith collection Kanz al-Ummal , it is recorded that Ali responded to Umar, saying, "This stone (Hajar Aswad) can indeed benefit and harm....".
What a terrible deception in human language! In fact, the requirement to pray, prostrate, and bow down to the Black Stone daily in Mecca is a form to "worship" it.
Moreover, No Biblical god and prophets enforced people to bow down to this stone.
A law, requirement, or regulation in Islam enforced people to bow down to the stone or to something IS an association.

What a meaningful picture! Due to Biblical ignorance, Mohammed did not know that the Biblical god YHWH prohibited to BOW DOWN TO ANY STONE for worship:
1. YHWH said "You must NOT worship the LORD YHWH, your God ... in THEIR PAGAN WAY." (Deut 12:4);
2. “‘Do not make idols... or a sacred stone for yourselves, and do not place a carved stone in your land to bow down before it." (Leviticus 26:1).
Therefore, bowing down to the sacred stone in Mecca is one reliable proof to show the god Allah in Quran was a strange god, totally different from the Biblical god YHWH.
Note for this Stone, many Islamic rulers, such as Umar, also did not know why Mohammed kept it, kissed it, bowed down to it for his prayer. Later some Islamic writers made up and idolized this stone with many unverifiable different stories for it.

Salam.No Allah Himself did not associate Himself with a black stone.Based on history the black stone was brought by prophet Adam from paradise when he was dropped by Allah on this earth.We Muslims never worship that stone just only kiss it in our umrah or hajj when we have a chance,because we follow prophet Abraham and Ismael.We worship directly to Allah only.We do not imagine that black stone as a female vagina in our daily worship.

You never make your point clearer. If you so sure with such a statement, prove to us that we worship the 'Black stone' which in the Kahba. Provide evidance and proof from the direct Qur'anic verses and Hadiths.
By the way, kissing that stone don't make and show that we are worshipping. Yes, you are right what Omar ibnu khatthab said, He was telling this because, He confirms to us, after hus generation, showing he was doing that ritual in the Haj, must because the prophet did (sunnah) and to tell us, its just a stone and no power with it. And Omar (rali) was like that, and he always used to make comments about many things as he always confirm himself what he was doing, as us to learn and himself to take par of teqching himself the worth being a Muslim. Hope you sir, never learn about the Islam properly, our prophet and his companions properly; just being yourself thought few thing without a deep knowledge of something, want make you a genious of theologen.
I have see some of your other Quetion and not bother to answer as its pointless and time waste. As you never making your points clearer and straight forward from the original source. If you are true, then make sure to keep open mind to learn, rather just already decisive that you not going to accept any answer. Hope you understand let us clear what you are really askkng with some more through information. Thanks.

Because this Allah was originated from a stone god in Quarish Arab paganism in Mecca.

We do not worship it like Christians worship a man and a cross, or like Hindus worship their idols. That is the difference. We worship the One Unseen God.
