Good and unique picture ..
This place is located near Mecca (One of three holy cities in Islam: Mecca, Medina and Jerusalem). On this mountain there are caves where Prophet Mohammed receives the message of Islam from the god (around 610). Muslims believe that the word of God was revealed to him by the archangel Gabriel , who said, "Recite in the name of thy Lord …" (Sura 96)in a cave in this mountain. These revelations were subsequently collected and codified as the Qur’an.
Muslims pilgrims usually visit this place to remember the prophet of Islam.
