أَنْبِيَاءُ اللَّهِ فِي الأَرْضِ المُقَدَّسَة
Palestine is uniquely designated in the Quran as Al-Ard al-Mubarakah (the Land We have Blessed). A succession of noble Prophets walked its valleys, prayed upon its hills, and anchored the light of Tawhid within Bayt al-Maqdis.

"The original establishment of the two ancient sanctuaries on earth began with Adam (AS) under divine guidance."
Migrated from Mesopotamia to Palestine; renewed the holy sanctuary and lived in Hebron (Al-Khalil), where he is buried in the Ibrahimi Mosque.
"The patriarch of the monotheistic lineage who sanctified both Makkah and Al-Quds."
Escaped corruption and was saved alongside Prophet Ibrahim into the blessed land of Palestine.
"Delivered to safety in the sanctuary land chosen by Allah for His righteous servants."
Born, preached, and spent his life within the hills of Palestine; buried in Hebron beside his parents Ibrahim and Sarah.

Lived in the hills of Hebron and Palestine; worshipped at Al-Aqsa before traveling to Egypt in his old age to reunite with Yusuf (AS).
"The righteous father who demonstrated magnificent patience (Sabrun Jameel) in the heart of Palestine."
Cast into the pit in Palestine; later brought to Egypt where he became minister, but bequeathed that his remains be returned to the soil of Palestine.
"His deep love for the Holy Land led to his remains being returned to rest alongside his forefathers."
Led the Children of Israel from Pharaoh's bondage toward Palestine; on his deathbed asked Allah to bring him within a stone's throw of the Holy Land.
"Though he passed away before entering, his heart was fixed upon the blessed soil of Jerusalem."
Reigned in Jerusalem with divine wisdom and justice; began the extensive architectural rebuilding of Al-Aqsa sanctuary.
"Combined supreme sovereignty with constant devotional remembrance of Allah within Jerusalem."
Completed the magnificent reconstruction of Bayt al-Maqdis with the aid of the Jinn, praying for divine forgiveness for every worshipper entering its gates.
"The builder whose prayer continues to bestow forgiveness upon every pilgrim visiting Al-Aqsa today."
Born miraculously in Bethlehem; spoke from the cradle; worshipped and defended the sanctuary against corruption; raised to heaven from Jerusalem; and will descend upon the White Minaret of Damascus in the end of days.
"His life and future return are inextricably woven into the sacred geography of Palestine and Ash-Sham."
Prayed facing Jerusalem as the First Qibla; journeyed on Al-Isra from Makkah to Al-Aqsa; led all Prophets in prayer; and ascended from the Blessed Rock to the divine presence.
