Palestine

Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem is the third holiest site in Islam, central to the Night Journey (Isra and Miraj) of Prophet Muhammad, and a symbol of Islamic heritage and Palestinian identity for over 1,300 years.

The Battle of Yarmouk (636 CE) was the decisive military engagement that secured Muslim conquest of the Levant, where Khalid ibn al-Walid's tactical genius led to a crushing defeat of the Byzantine Empire and opened Syria and Palestine to Islamic rule.

The third holiest city in Islam, known as Al-Quds (The Holy). Site of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and Dome of the Rock, and the destination of Prophet Muhammad's Night Journey (Isra and Miraj). Conquered peacefully by Umar ibn al-Khattab in 637 CE.
