Muhammad ibn 'Abd Allah Al-Azraqi (Arabic: محمد بن عبد الله الأزرقي) was a 9th-century Islamic commentator and historian, and author of the Book of Reports about Mecca (Kitab Akhbar Makka).
The contents included a statue of Hubal, the principal male deity of Mecca, and a number of other pagan items, which were destroyed in 630 as idolatrous.
Al-Azraqi is silent on the fate of the images of trees that are known also to have decorated the interior of the Ka'aba, pictures of which formed part of the mosaic decoration on the walls of al-Qalis Church, Sanaa, and were later to emerge in the Umayyad mosaics in the Dome of the Rock, the Prophet's Mosque in Medina, and the Great Mosque of Damascus.
[4] The key manuscript of Akhbar Makka is Leiden, University Library, Or.424.
[3] The only printed edition is volume one of Die Chroniken der Stadt Mekka, ed.
