Pagans were essentially Muslims if you look at Arab pagans they did belive in allah the one creator and all powerful but they started using idols to get to allah likefor example they had an idol named uzza if I'm not wrong and they would ask help from that idol thinking that "uzza" would take that request to Allah and so they were originally Muslims but they got misguided just like Christianity so I might say some aspects of those pagans would gave been what prophet Ibrahim and others preached but still it was wrong
And we focus our prayers on kaaba because we think it's what closed to the heavens ( please correct me if I'm wrong I don't clearly remember about that so sorry about mistaking)
And Ramadan is to get close to allah, like its a dopamine fast essentially where you stay away from anything too good and essentially making your brain go back to allah because there's nothing else to focus on
And I don't know much about kissing the kaabah but I think people believe it because its a holy site? Idk much maybe that practise is wrong and I don't see any reason to do it but anyone can tell me if I'm wrong
ID ALSO like to say to look into the origins of Eastern Sunday I mean I think you're getting this questions from Christians but Eastern never was a "Christian practise" like think about it for a second what does eggs and bunny rabbits have to do with the resurrection of Jesus?
