He ruled as a king. He reconstructed the Ka'bah from a state of decay, and made the [[Arab people]] build their houses around it. He is known to have built the first "town hall" in the [[Arabian Peninsula]] a spacious dwelling which was known as the House of Assembly. Leaders of different clans met in this hall to discuss their social, commercial, cultural and political problems. A provident leader, Qusai created laws so that pilgrims who went to Mecca were supplied with food and water, which was paid for by a tax that he persuaded his people to pay. He distributed the responsibilities of looking after the visitors during pilgrimage taking care of Ka'bah, warfare and pacifying amongst myriad tribes living in Mecca.<ref name="Lings"/> |
