In the holy city of Najaf, in southern Iraq, where the soil is steeped in centuries of devotion, stretches a place unlike any other: Wadi Al-Salam "Valley of Peace", the largest cemetery on Earth.

According to UNESCO reports, this vast burial ground has been continuously used for over 1,400 years, housing an estimated 6 million graves across a staggering 6 square kilometers (over 600 hectares).

But what sets this land apart isn’t just its sheer scale, it’s what many say happens when all else falls silent.

In the shadowy corners of Gulf Arab folklore, a terrifying figure has haunted the dreams of children and the superstitions of elders alike.

Known as Abu al-Salasil, literally "The Father of Chains", this supernatural being is said to wander shorelines and alleyways, dragging iron chains behind him and unleashing terror upon those who cross his path.

In the northern hills of Lebanon, tucked between the tranquil slopes near the monastery of Deir Gherbta, lies a place that seems to have slipped through the cracks of time ,a village so obscure that maps hesitate to name it, and locals speak of it only in hushed tones.

They say cities are like people, some embrace you the moment your eyes meet them, while others seem to spit you out as soon as your feet touch their ground. And then there are cities that greet you with neutrality, offering no warmth nor aversion. That was exactly how I felt when I visited Kassala, a city in eastern Sudan, for the first time.

Nestled deep within Ras Al Khaimah, near the quiet shores of the Arabian Gulf, lies a deserted village cloaked in the scent of memory. It does not speak but it whispers. Whispers of fishermen who once thrived here, of footsteps echoing at night with no one in sight, of shadows moving when nothing should.

Along the misty Atlantic shores of Morocco, where the Oum Er-Rbia river meets the ocean, stands the ancient city of Azemmour, a city that seems to know your presence the moment you enter its winding alleys, yet refuses to reveal all of its secrets.
