Featured information
Hala Sultan Tekke
Hala Sultan Tekke or the Mosque of Umm Haram is the third holiest site in Islam. The prominent Muslim shrine near Larnaca, on the island of Cyprus is described by the United Nations Development Programme in Cyprus as Islam’s third holiest site, after the Kaaba in Mecca and the Mosque of the Prophet in Medina.
In an assessment of the environmental and cultural assets of Cyprus, Professor George E. Bowen, a senior Fullbright scholar at the University of Tennessee, is also quoted as referring to the Hala Sultan Tekke as the third holiest place for Muslims in the world.
The definition of the Cypriot administration's Department of Antiquities: "It is the main Muslim pilgrimage site of Cyprus and the third most important holy place of Islam".
A number of other sources also refer to Hala Sultan Tekke as Islam's third-holiest site.
The definition "the third holiest site in the Muslim world" for Hala Sultan Tekke is also taken over by a number of Cypriot holiday and property websites.

"In Cyprus is another highly venerated Islamic site - the third most important after Mecca and Medina - the Hala Sultan Tekke. This, too, has a black rock, said to have fallen as a meteorite as part of the tritholon over the shrine. The shrine is to a woman - the aunt and foster mother of Prophet Mohammed"

Umm Haram's shrine was claimed to be the third most important pilgrimage site in the Muslim world, especially after 1787, when a tekke, an informal Ottoman monastery, was established close to the tomb.
