Khalid b. Walid had two notable uncles, Abu Umayya b. Mughira and Hisham b. Mughira. Abu Umayya b. Mughira was famous for resolving the issue of who should have the honor of replacing [[Hajar al-Aswad]] (the Black Stone) after rebuilding [[Ka'ba]]. He suggested that they will choose the first person who enter the mosque as the judge. Hisham b. Mughira, another uncle of Khalid, was a notable member of Quraysh and the commander of Banu Makhzum's army in the battle of Fujar. After the death of Hisham, people of Quraysh closed Bazaar for three years and they set his death date as the start of Banu Makhzum's calendar. Maymuna the daughter of Harith (Prophet Muhammad's (s) wife) and Lubaba Umm al-Fadl (the wife of 'Abbas b. 'Abd al-Muttalib and the grandmother of Abbasid caliphs) were the maternal aunts of Khalid b. Walid. | Khalid b. Walid had two notable uncles, Abu Umayya b. Mughira and Hisham b. Mughira.
