This mosque and tomb at Busayra, on the King's Highway, is honoured as the grave of al-Harith ibn Umayr al-Azdi, the Prophet's ﷺ envoy to the ruler of Busra. He was killed on his mission, and his killing led to the expedition of Mu'tah in 8 AH (629). The shrine was rebuilt by the Royal Committee and stands in the village of Busayra, south of Tafilah, beside the ruins of the ancient Edomite capital of Bozrah.
