إِنَّ أَوَّلَ بَيْتٍ وُضِعَ لِلنَّاسِ لَلَّذِي بِبَكَّةَ مُبَارَكًا وَهُدًى لِّلْعَالَمِينَ
The first house set up for the people is the one at Bakkah, blessed and a guidance for the worlds.

Point of view: 3:96 says the House was the first appointed (set down) for people, not the first building on earth. Found: the verb is وُضِعَ, passive of the root w-ḍ-ʿ ‘to set down, lay, appoint’; the verse does not use the root b-n-y ‘to build’. The table lists every passive use of w-ḍ-ʿ in the Koran.

Ayen ara yettwasneqden: Read 3:96 and confirm the verb is وُضِعَ (root w-ḍ-ʿ), then open the table and check that no form of b-n-y appears in the verse.
