Jabal Abu Qubays is located to the east of Al-Masjid Al-Haram, in the right hand side of the photograph. Jabal al-Nour can be seen in the background.
Although the exact origin of its name is unknown, it is believed to be called Al-Amīn (ٱلْأَمِيْن) in pagan times because the sacred Black Stone resided there according to Muslims[who?]. According to another report, this mountain was also called the Maghārat al-Kanz (مَغَارَة ٱلْكَنْز, "Treasure Cave"), and this was believed to be the place where the first of men stayed and were buried after their death. According to tradition, this is the place where the Islamic Nabi, ProphetMuhammad performed the miracle of splitting the moon into two pieces and then re-attaching those pieces as demanded by the disbelievers of Makkah.[1]
