generally speaking, sites significant to most, if not all abrahamic religions include mount sinai ( "ṭūr sīnā’", or "jabal mūsá"; egyptian arabic: "gabal musa", lit. "moses' mountain" or "mount moses"; "har sinai"; also known as "mount horeb"), a mountain in the sinai peninsula of egypt that is the traditional and most accepted location of the biblical mount sinai. the latter is mentioned many times in the book of exodus in the torah, the bible, and the qur'an. according to jewish, christian and islamic tradition, the biblical mount sinai was the place where moses received the ten commandments; the tomb of abraham in the cave of the patriarchs, as well as many other places within the "promised land" region of the eastern mediterranean. many of these locations are featured in the history of the jewish people and the various abrahamic sacred texts such as the judaic and samaritan pentateuch, the torah, tanakh and talmud; the christian bible; the qur'an; and under some definitions bahá'í literature, the druze kitab al hikma, as well as yazdani, ahmadiyya, alevi and other texts and lore.
