Mount Abu Qubays is a sacred mountain for Muslims located in the northeast of the Masjid al-Haram in the city of Mecca. Today, it has been carved, and its original dome-shaped form has been altered. It is said that when the Black Stone descended from paradise, it was placed in this mountain for a period of time as a trust. Additionally, Prophet Ibrahim(s) used to call people to perform the rituals of Hajj from atop this mountain. The Mosque of Ibrahim, the Mosque of Shaqq al-Qamar, and the caravansary of Mulla Muhammad Yazidi are among the structures built on the slopes of this mountain.

Its elevation from sea level is reported to be 420 meters, and from the base, it is 120 meters.[2] According to Naser Khosrow, this mountain was dome-shaped.[3] In recent years, a significant portion of the mountain has been flattened, and on it, a palace and a government guesthouse have been built.[4] Names:
The name of this mountain is derived from the name of a person from the Mazhij tribe.[5] Or Ayad.[6] It is said that for the first time, a house was built on its slopes.[7] According to some accounts, such as Abu Qubays ibn Shalih from the Jurhum tribe sought refuge on this mountain due to disagreements with his relatives, and he never returned. The mountain became famous by this name thereafter.[8] Some also, considering the semantic significance, have said that Abu Qubays relates to "qabas" (a piece of firewood), suggesting that Prophet Adam (peace be upon him) took fire from this mountain[9] The names Abu Qabus and Sheikh al-Jabal have also been attributed to Abu Qubays.[10]
