Al-Azraqi was a 9th-century Islamic commentator and historian, and author of the "Kitab Akhbar Makka" (Book of reports about Makka).
 He is from a family who lived in Makka for hundreds of years.
 He gave information on the design and layout of the pre-Islamic Ka'aba at Makka after its rebuilding following a fire in 603 AD until its possession by Mohammed in 630 AD.
 The contents included a statue of Hubal, the principal male deity of Makka, and a number of other pagan items, which were destroyed in 630 as idolatrous.
 They also included a pair of ram’s horns said to have belonged to the ram sacriﬁced by the Prophet Abraham in place of his son, the Prophet Ismail, and a painting (probably a fresco) of Jesus and Mary.
