Ibrahimi Mosque in Hebron

Wednesday 8th February
We visited Ibrahimi Mosque, which is situated above the burial cave of the Patriarchs and Matriarchs, Sarah, Abraham, Isaac and Rebecca.

The women had to cover their heads

Sarah's tomb




Greek text from when it was a Christian Church

Arabic text now it's a mosque

Reading the Qu'ran




In 1994, 29 people were killed and many more injured when an Israeli extremist gunman opened fire on a large number of Muslims at prayer in the Ibrahimi Mosque.
