• The Cave of the Seven Sleepers - Travel just 20 minutes to visit the renowned Ka’f Al-Raqim, also known as the Cave of the Seven Sleepers, a top attraction near Amman. This site is mentioned in the Holy Qur’an in the Sura Al-Kahf (The Cave) and is situated outside the village of Al-Raqim, 10 km east of Amman. A group of devout youths, fleeing the oppressive rule of Trajan due to their monotheistic beliefs, sought refuge in this cave.

To protect them, Allah caused them to sleep, and upon awakening 300 years later (309 lunar years, as noted in the Holy Qur’an), they believed they had only slept for a day or so. By then, Christianity had spread widely, and upon their discovery, Allah granted them eternal rest. The cave is surrounded by Byzantine and Roman ruins, along with a mosque that perfectly aligns with the descriptions in the Holy Qur’an.

• Grand Husseini Mosque - The Grand Husseini Mosque stands as a significant landmark and one of the oldest mosques in Amman, Jordan, with its history deeply connected to the city’s past and present.

Originally constructed in 640 AD by Omar ibn Al-Khattab, the second Caliph of Islam, it is believed to have been built on the site of a former Byzantine basilica.

The current mosque, featuring Ottoman-style architecture, was reconstructed 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 seen several renovations and expansions over the years, including one in the 1980s and another after a fire in 2019.

The Grand Husseini Mosque serves not only as a place of worship but also as a major cultural and historical landmark in Amman. It is a testament to the city’s rich heritage and symbolizes its deep-rooted connection to Islam.

• Abu Darwish Mosque - Renowned for its distinctive black-and-white striped facade, the mosque was constructed in 1961 atop Jabal al-Ashrafiyeh, one of Amman’s highest hills.

It was funded and designed by a Circassian immigrant named Hasan Mustafa Sharkas, also known as Abu Darwish, after whom the mosque is named.

The location provides panoramic views of the city, making the mosque a highly visible and recognizable landmark.

The most notable feature of the Abu Darwish Mosque is its facade, crafted from alternating courses of black and white stone. This design is inspired by traditional Levantine architecture, with influences from the Mamluk and Ottoman periods.

The mosque complex also includes a small library and a museum, though visitor access is not always guaranteed.

• King Abdullah Mosque - Often called the “Blue Mosque,” it is one of the most famous and recognizable landmarks in Amman, Jordan.

The mosque is distinguished by its open-door policy, welcoming non-Muslim visitors to learn about Islamic worship and culture. It is among the few mosques in Amman offering this service.

Constructed 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, topped by a dome, can accommodate up to 3,000 worshippers, with the courtyard holding an additional 7,000.

The mosque complex also features a small Islamic Museum and a library housing over 20,000 books.

The interior is adorned with exquisite Islamic art, including beautiful chandeliers and Quranic inscriptions.

The Qur’an narrates the story in Surah Al-Kahf (18, ‘The Cave’). At the Prophet Muhammad’s time, Medina’s Jews tested him by asking him to recount the tale of the sleepers, well aware that no Arab was familiar with this narration. As the tradition goes, God dispatched angel Gabriel (or Jibreel) to relay the tale to the Prophet via Surah Al-Kahf. After listening to the Prophet’s version, the Jews verified that he recounted the same tale they were familiar with.
