“Trip to the Shrines of the Companions – Karak”

“The Shrines of the Companions in the Southern Mazar… A destination for visitors from all around the world.”

_The Southern Mazar
The Southern Mazar district in the Karak Governorate contains the tombs of three companions who were martyred in the Battle of Mu’tah, which took place in the month of Jumada al-Awwal in the 8th year of the Hijra (629 AD).

The companions are Zayd ibn Harithah, Ja’far ibn Abi Talib, and Abdullah ibn Rawahah. They were leaders of the Muslim army appointed by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to lead a force of three thousand fighters against the Romans. The Prophet appointed three commanders in succession: first, Zayd ibn Harithah; if he were killed, then Ja’far ibn Abi Talib; and if he were killed, then Abdullah ibn Rawahah (may Allah be pleased with them all).

 

Karak is an ancient Crusader fortress, located 900 meters above sea level, nestled within the walls of the old city. Today, the city is home to approximately 170,000 people and contains a significant number of restored Ottoman-era sites dating back to the 19th century, including buildings, restaurants, lodging, and more. However, Karak Castle remains its most important and prominent landmark!

Karak Castle :
is a dark maze of rock tunnels and endless corridors. The well-preserved sections of the castle are located underground, accessible through a large door (inquire about it when purchasing your ticket). The castle has a grandeur that almost overshadows its beauty, yet its architectural brilliance reflects the genius of the Crusader armies of that time.

You can stroll along the front western wall’s terraces and admire the breathtaking view, but be cautious while doing so. On clear days, you can see the Dead Sea all the way to Mount of Olives at the outskirts of Bethlehem.

Castle Courtyard:
Visitors can pass through the castle courtyard located outside, where beautiful 19th-century Ottoman buildings rise. These were originally used for administrative purposes and have been redesigned to become a tourist center, featuring a restaurant, a handicrafts center, and other facilities around the central square.
