Geography and the Prophets  عليهم السلام

Borders and country names change over the centuries. I have used the modern name for the country so you can relate to your knowledge of geography today.

I have listed a Prophet under a country if he was born there, lived there, visited there or died there.

I have taken the information from ‘Stories of the Prophets’ by Ibn Kathir and ‘Atlas of the Qur’an’ Dr. Shauqi Abu Khalil. Listed are the Prophets that we have information about. There were many others that were here but we have no clear texts about them.

Please Note:

It is important to follow what the Prophets were upon and the guidance they brought. We should not just research and visit where they went or could have been. The information provided is just to give you an idea of how they travelled and where they were in the world. Some people do 'pilgrimage' to all the sites that Prophets might have been and they worship at/or their graves. This is WRONG and not acceptable to Allaah. We were warned about this.

If specific names and places of historical events regarding the Prophets were important for our religion and worship Allaah would have told us about them.
