Ain Al Kuayba Arabic: عين الكعيبة is a freshwater spring located in Qatif, Saudi Arabia. It hosted the black stone in 930 (317H) after it had been looted from Kaaba by Abu Tahir al-Jannabi.[1] In 2012 it was mistakenly bulldozed by a construction contractor,[2] but reconstructed in 2015.[3] Historians such as Ali Aldarorah believe that it dates back to the third millennium BC.[1]
