Explanatory Note

It was to the land of Palestine that he and his nephew, Lot, emigrated. This was the land to receive revelations from on high for a very long time and the area where prophets and messengers of Abraham’s descent were raised. This area incorporates the holy land where the second house of worship was built. It is a fertile land with rich tillage. All these blessings were added to that of the generations of prophets living there.
