Maqam an-Nabi Yusha' (Arabic: مقام النبي يوشع) is a religious complex consisting of a mosque and the shrine containing a mausoleum believed to entomb the remains of the biblical Joshua.[1][2][3] It is located in the abandoned village of Al-Nabi Yusha' in Safed, Mandatory Palestine. The structure, one of the historic maqams in the Middle East, is now in a ruined state.[4][5][3]
