Mosque and Shrine of Uwais al-Qarni and Ammar ibn Yasir

Muslims believe that the remains of Owais al-Qarni and Ammar ibn Yasir were relocated to this site in the early Umayyad era.
The shrine featured two green domes and a marble mihrab inscribed with the phrase Peace be upon the family of Yasir. In 1988, it was renovated by the Shiite Endowment using turquoise tilework and Kufic ornamentation.
The shrine consists of three structures, with the tombs of Ammar ibn Yasir, the Tabi‘un Owais al-Qarni and Ubay ibn Qays al-Nakha‘i at its center. The upper floor housed guest rooms, halls, and kitchens to accommodate visitors.
In 2014, the shrine was destroyed with explosives, leaving the buried remains of its tilework and dome foundations. Currently, efforts are underway to document and collect the scattered mosaics in preparation for a symbolic reconstruction as part of an interfaith dialogue project in the Euphrates Valley.
