The peninsula is associated with Aaron and Moses, who are also regarded as Prophets.[1] In particular, numerous references to the mount exist in the Quran,[2][3] where it is called Ṭūr Sīnā’,[33] Ṭūr Sīnīn,[34] and aṭ-Ṭūr[35][36] and al-Jabal (both meaning "the Mount").[37] As for the adjacent Wād Ṭuwā (Valley of Tuwa), it is considered as being muqaddas[38][39] (sacred),[40][41] and a part of it is called Al-Buqʿah Al-Mubārakah (Arabic: ٱلْبُقْعَة ٱلْمُبَارَكَة, "The Blessed Place").[36]
