Vikramaditya Installed Shiva Linga In Kaaba?

How come the Linga was spared from destruction?

Prophet's ancestors were worshipers of Shiva and were entrusted with the maintenance of the Kaaba temple.

Who installed the Shiva Linga in Kaaba?

Obviously the Lina should have been installed before the arrival of the Prophet.

I shall be posting a detailed article on the History of Kaaba.

In the meanwhile, I would like to share a Poem, Stuthi on Lord Shiva by Umar-Bin-E-Hassham, an Uncle of Prophet Muhammad.

Muhammad's uncle was one of the resident priests of the Shiv temple known as "Kaaba".
