The answer

The website is concerned with clarifying practical Shariah rulings, and a question like this provides no beneficial knowledge, nor does any act of worship depend on it. Precisely identifying the homeland of every prophet and messenger is difficult due to their large number (one hundred and twenty-four thousand, among whom are three hundred and thirteen messengers, according to the of Abu Dharr). Their places of mission, in general, are Iraq and the Levant (Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine), as well as Egypt and the Arabian Peninsula. Some prophets traveled through many lands, such as Adam, Abraham, and Solomon. Those who wish to delve deeper can consult history and biography books such as "Al-Kamil fi al-Tarikh," "Tarikh al-Tabari," and "Al-Bidaya wa al-Nihaya." However, this is not recommended due to the limited benefit expected and the waste of precious time.
