Abu Ghabshan
text:
Abu Ghabshan, real name Salim ibn 'Amr al-Khuza'i was a custodian of the Kaaba during pre-Islamic Arabia. He was from the Banu Khuza'ah tribe that was ruling Mecca at the time. Abu Ghabshan held the keys to the Kaaba before they were passed on to the Quraysh. Abu Ghabshan plays a humourous role in Arab literature, due to his regret in handing over the keys of the Kaaba to the chief of Quraysh, Qusayy ibn Kilab.
