What was the book of faith for Islam before the Mohammad book?

It matters which religion they were following. The original followers of Islam lived in Arabia and were either Christians, Jews, or Polytheisic worshipers of local deities.

The most holy site for Muslims is the Kaaba in Mecca, which houses a sacred black stone. Before Islam, members of the tribes of Arabia traveled to Mecca to worship their numerous gods at that same location and same black stone.
