Nablus The reason for the name is in the story of the hoopoe. A wounded man came to tell about the nations to the Prophet of God, Solomon. Solomon said to him: What happened to you? He said: The wrath of God descended upon the city of Nablus, so God sent a snake called (Las) against them, and it caused one of its poisonous fangs to fall into the well that the whole city depended on, so everyone drank from it and died.
