Of course, the word 'Bakkah' here is another name of the Holy City of Makkah [Bible also refers Makkah as Bakkah]. The verses of the Quran also confirm the link with Abraham as it goes:
"{In it are clear signs, the standing place of Ibrahim [Abraham], and whoever enters it shall be secure, and pilgrimage to the House is incumbent upon men for the sake of Allah, (upon) every one who is able to undertake the journey to it; and whoever disbelieves, then surely Allah is Self-sufficient, above any need of the worlds.}" - (Quran; Aal Imran 3:97)
