Tomb of Prophet Job

Job (Turkish: Eyyub or Eyyüp or Eyüp, Arabic: أيّوب, Ayyūb‎) is considered a prophet in Islam and is mentioned in the Qur'an. Job's story in Islam is similar to the Hebrew Bible story; but in Islam, the emphasis is paid on Job remaining steadfast to God and there is no mention of lengthy discussions with friends. The Tomb of Prophet Job (Turkish: Hz. Eyyub Türbesi) is located in the Viranşehir district of Şanlıurfa Province.
