Highlights

The Islamic version is related in Surah (Chapter) Al-Kahf (18, "The Cave"), of the Qur'an. During the time of the Prophet Muhammad, the Jews of Medina challenged him to tell them the story of the sleepers knowing that none of the Arabs knew about it. According to tradition, God then sent the angel Gabriel (or Jibreel) to reveal the story to him through Surah Al-Kahf. After hearing it from him, the Jews confirmed that he told the same story they knew.

Itinerary

  • The Cave of the Seven Sleepers (Ashabul Kahf)

    45 minsAdmission Ticket Not Included
    Then, drive 20 minutes to the most popular attraction outside of Amman, known as the Ka'f Al-Raqim, also referred to as the Cave of the Seven Sleepers. Mentioned in the Holy Qur'an in a Sura named Al-Kahf (The Cave), it is located outside the village of Al-Raqim, 10 km east of Amman. Persecuted by the despotic rule of Trajan for monotheism, a group of pious youths took refuge in this cave. To preserve them, Allah put them to sleep, and when they revived 300 years later (309 lunar years, as mentioned in the Holy Qur'an), they thought they had only been asleep for a day or so. Christianity was widespread by then, and when they were discovered, Allah put them to rest forever. At the cave, Byzantine and Roman ruins still stand, as well as a mosque, which exactly matches the descriptions in the Holy Qur'an.
  • Grand Husseini Mosque

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Not Included
    The Grand Husseini Mosque is a prominent landmark and one of the oldest mosques in Amman, Jordan. Its history and significance are deeply intertwined with the city's past and present. The original mosque on this site was built in 640 AD by Omar ibn Al-Khattab, the second Caliph of Islam. It is believed to have been constructed on the site of a former Byzantine basilica. The current Ottoman-style mosque was rebuilt in 1924 by the late King Abdullah I and named in honor of his father, Sharif Hussein bin Ali, the leader of the Great Arab Revolt. The mosque has undergone several renovations and expansions over the years, including one in the 1980s and another following a fire in 2019. The Grand Husseini Mosque is not only a place of worship but also a major cultural and historical landmark in Amman. The mosque is a testament to the city's rich heritage and a symbol of its deep-rooted connection to Islam.
  • Abu Darwish Mosque

    15 minsAdmission Ticket Not Included
    Known for its unique black-and-white striped facade. The mosque was built in 1961 on top of Jabal al-Ashrafiyeh, one of Amman's highest hills. It was financed and designed by a Circassian immigrant named Hasan Mustafa Sharkas, also known as Abu Darwish, after whom the mosque is named. The location offers panoramic views of the city, making the mosque a highly visible and recognizable landmark. The most striking feature of the Abu Darwish Mosque is its facade, which is made from alternating courses of black and white stone. This design draws from traditional Levantine The mosque complex also includes a small library and a museum, though access for visitors is not always guaranteed.

  • King Abdullah Mosque

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Not Included
    Mosque, often referred to as the "Blue Mosque," is one of the most famous and recognizable landmarks in Amman, Jordan. The mosque is notable for its open-door policy, welcoming non-Muslim visitors to learn about Islamic worship and culture. It is one of the few mosques in Amman that offers this service. The mosque was built between 1982 and 1989 as a memorial by the late King Hussein to his grandfather, King Abdullah I, the founder of modern Jordan. The mosque is a stunning example of contemporary Islamic architecture. The octagonal prayer hall, capped by a dome, can accommodate up to 3,000 worshippers, and the courtyard can hold an additional 7,000. The mosque complex also includes a small Islamic Museum and a library with over 20,000 books. The interior is decorated with ornate Islamic art, including beautiful chandeliers and Quranic inscriptions.
