Women are seen reading the Quran in front of the Companions' shrines. The month of Ramadan sees visits to holy places and shrines, praying and making wishes. One of these holy places is the Hazrat Suleyman mosque, which was built in 1150 and is one of the important religious and touristic centers of the world's Muslims. In the garden of the mosque there are shrines of 27 people who died here during the spread of Islam and were said to be descendants of the prophet (Sahaba) Mohammed. Those who visit the shrines, read the Quran, pray and make wishes.
