It is possibly the location of the biblical Mount Sinai, the place where, according to the Torah, Bible, and Quran, Moses received the Ten Commandments. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4It is a 2,285-metre (7,497\u00a0ft), moderately high mountain near the city of Saint Catherine in the region known today as the Sinai Peninsula. It is surrounded on all sides by higher peaks in the mountain range of which it is a part. For example, it lies next to Mount Catherine which, at 2,629\u00a0m or 8,625\u00a0ft, is the highest peak in Egypt.[1]Table of ContentsGeology[edit]Religious significance[edit]Judaism and Christianity[edit]Islam[edit]Ascent and summit[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]Geology[edit] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Jebel Musa in the 1869 Ordnance Survey of the Peninsula of Sinai, shown north of Mount Catherine (Jebel Katarina) and south of Willow Peak (Ras es-Safsafeh)Mount Sinai’s rocks were formed during the late stage of the evolution of the Arabian-Nubian Shield. Mount Sinai displays a ring complex[2] that consists of alkaline granites intruded into diverse rock types, including volcanics. The granites range in composition from syenogranite to alkali feldspar granite. The volcanic rocks are alkaline to peralkaline, and they are represented by subaerial flows and eruptions and subvolcanic porphyry. Generally, the nature of the exposed rocks in Mount Sinai indicates that they were formed at different depths from one another.[citation needed]Religious significance[edit]Judaism and Christianity[edit]Immediately north of the mountain is the 6th-century Saint Catherine’s Monastery. The summit has a mosque that is still used by Muslims, and a Greek Orthodox chapel, constructed in 1934 on the ruins of a 16th-century church, that is not open to the public. The chapel encloses the rock which is considered to be the source for the biblical Tablets of Stone.[3] At the summit also is “Moses’ cave”, where Moses was said to have waited to receive the Ten Commandments.Islam[edit]The Jabal Musa is associated with the Islamic prophet Musa (Moses).[4] In particular, numerous references to Jabal Musa exist in the Quran,[5][6] where it is called \u1e6c\u016br Sain\u0101\u02be,[7]\u1e6c\u016br S\u012bn\u012bn,[8] and a\u1e6d-\u1e6c\u016br[9][10] and al-Jabal (both meaning “the Mount”).[11] As for the adjacent W\u0101d \u1e6cuw\u0101 (Valley of Tuwa), it is considered as being muqaddas[12][13] (sacred),[14][15] and a part of it is called Al-Buq\u02bfah Al-Mub\u0101rakah (“The Blessed Place”).[10] It is the place where Musa spoke to his Lord.[clarification needed]Ascent and summit[edit]There are two principal routes to the summit. The longer and shallower route, Siket El Bashait, takes about 2.5 hours on foot, though camels can be used. The steeper, more direct route (Siket Sayidna Musa) is up the 3,750 “steps of penitence” in the ravine behind the monastery.[16]The last few meters of the climb up the mountainA panoramic view from the summit of Mount SinaiSee also[edit]References[edit]^ “Sinai Geology”.
