Mecca and Medina.

The holiest shrine in Islam, the Kaaba, is located in Mecca, surrounded by the Sacred Mosque (<span>Al-Masjid Al-Ḥarām).  Mecca was the birthplace of Mohammad and the Sacred Mosque and shrine there are the direction toward which Muslims turn when doing their daily prayers.  It is also the place to which they make pilgrimage as one of the five pillars of the faith.

Medina is where Mohammad built a following for the Islamic faith after learning there was a plot in Mecca to assassinate him.  He later went back to Mecca with an army of 1500 converts to Islam and took control of his home city without bloodshed.  A holy mosque is located in Medina also, called The Prophet's Mosque (</span><span>al-Masjid an-Nabawi).  It is where Mohammad is buried.</span><span>

The holiest place in Islam is Mecca - this is where the Prophet Muhammad was born and all Muslims are required to make a pilgrimage there once in their life. 

Muhammad's tomb is in Medina and this is the second holy site of Islam - so the answer is Mecca and Medina. 

however, Jerusalem is also a holy site in Islam, as it was a place where previous prophets were - so the question should ask for three holy cites.

What was D-Day, what was America’s involvement and how did it
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

The D-Day invasion took years of planning, and, in months leading up to it, the Allies began a military deception strategy known as Operation Bodyguard. This operation was intended to mislead German forces as to the exact day and location of the suspected invasion.

Those planning the invasion determined specific weather conditions based on moon phases, time of day, and ocean tides that would be most ideal for a successful invasion. When the appointed time of the invasion came, the weather was far from these conditions, and the invasion was pushed back a day

On the morning of D-Day, paratroopers and glider troops were sent behind enemy lines by the thousands to secure bridges and exit roads. Then, at 6:30 in the morning, the beach landings began. By the end of the day, over 150,000 Allied troops had successfully stormed and captured Normandy’s beaches—but at a high price. By some estimates, over 4,000 of the Allied forces lost their lives. Thousands more were recorded as wounded or missing.
