With regard to what some people think, that the purpose behind that is to seek blessing from it, there is no basis for that, so it is invalid.
With regard to what some people have said, that circumambulating the Ka‘bah is like circumambulating the graves of their saints, and that it is tantamount to idolatry, this is part of their heresy.
The believers only circumambulate it in compliance with the command of Allah, and whatever is done in compliance with the command of Allah, doing it is an act of worship of Allah, may He be exalted.

What we should point out here is that our prayer facing the direction of the Ka’bah has nothing to do with the structure of the Ka’bah, rather it has to do with its location. If it were to be destroyed, we would still pray in that direction, not to that structure.
The Kaaba is the direction that Muslims head to when praying.
For instance, if Muslims want to offer Prayer, it is possible that some may wish to face north, while some may wish to face south. In order to unite Muslims in their worship of the One True God, Muslims, wherever they may be, are asked to face in only one direction i.e. towards the Kaaba.
The act of circumambulating around the Kaaba is because it's an order of Almighty God not because Muslims worship it.At the time of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him , people even stood on the Kaaba to make the call of prayer.So which idol worshipper stands on the top of the idol he worships? Muslims do not worship the Kaaba at all, but rather they worship the Lord of the Kaaba ,the Lord of the universe, Almighty God.

The Great Difference...
Over the years,
I’ve realized that there is no real difference between
December 31st and January 1st.
The true difference lies between the 30th of Sha'bān
and the 1st of Ramadān.
A difference in mindset,
your life’s rhythm,
and a shift from your monotonous daily routine
to a dose of spirituality
that sustains you for the rest of the year.
🌿 A difference in your day, which transforms from an ordinary, busy day into an organized one.
A difference in family gatherings
around meals for thirty consecutive days,
something that rarely happens
on normal days.
A difference in affection, love, and compassion,
which emerges among people
more than at any other time of the year through helping those in need and feeding others.
A difference where the rewards of good deeds are multiplied by up to seven hundred times.
A difference where angels, along with Gabriel, descend on a night that is better than a thousand months.
A difference where the gates of Paradise are opened
and the gates of Hell are closed.
Countless differences
make the 1st of Ramadān like rain
that revives the earth after its death.
Oh Allah, allow us to reach Ramadān
in good health and well-being.
Have mercy on those who have left us and preceded us to meet our Lord,
and reunite us with them in the highest paradise of Jannah.

Arabic is a derivative language that gives a stem of the word and drives alot of words from this one stem. So in Quran you may not find the term"Tawhid" by itself but you will find other related words derived from it.
Also the meaning of Tawhid is mentioned and emphasized throughout the Quran countless times. Almighty God (Allah) says it explicitly in Quran that you must worship Him alone and that associating partners with Him is the gravest sin:
"Indeed, I am Allāh. There is no deity except Me, so worship Me and establish prayer for My remembrance." (Quran 20:14)
"Worship Allāh and associate nothing with Him," (Quran 4:36)
Whereas, in the Bible, there is no single verse where God or Jesus explicitly states that one must worship the Holy Trinity or all three of them.
