Egypt has a deep Islamic heritage, and many Muslims travel there to connect with important figures and places related to Islamic history.

1. **Al-Azhar Mosque and University**: Located in Cairo, Al-Azhar is one of the oldest and most respected centers of Islamic learning in the world. Established in 970 AD, it has been a place of religious scholarship and spiritual development for centuries. Many Muslim pilgrims visit the mosque to pray and learn.

2. **Cairo's Religious Landmarks**: Cairo is home to many mosques, mausoleums, and shrines. Notable sites include the Mosque of Amr ibn al-As (the first mosque built in Africa), the Mosque of Ibn Tulun, and the Citadel of Saladin with the impressive Muhammad Ali Mosque.

3. **Shrines of Islamic Saints and Scholars**: Egypt houses the tombs of several revered Islamic saints and scholars. The shrine of Imam Al-Hussein, believed to house the head of the Prophet Muhammad's grandson, is a significant site in Cairo for many Muslims, particularly for those with Shia traditions.

4. **Islamic Cairo**: This historic district is full of Islamic architecture, including madrasas, mosques, and old city gates, reflecting the deep cultural and religious heritage of the Islamic era in Egypt.

5. **Prophet Moses and Mount Sinai**: While not in Egypt's mainland but the Sinai Peninsula, some Muslims also visit Mount Sinai, where it is believed that Moses (Prophet Musa in Islam) received the Ten Commandments.
