Nabih Saleh (Arabic: النبيه صالح) is an island of Bahrain in the Arabian Gulf.
It lies in the Tubli Bay, east of Bahrain Island, and is 2.5 km (1.6 mi) south of the capital, Manama, on Bahrain Island.
[1] The island was named after the Shi'ite holy man, Salih,[2] who received the title "Nabih Saleh" due to his asceticism and was buried on the island, where his tomb, the Shrine of Nabih Saleh, still stands.
[3] This island originally, like Sitra, was covered with farms and date palm groves, but now it has been denuded by mass deforestation.
[2][4] In 2016 renovation works began on the island [5][6] There are three neighborhoods located on the island: Kaflan, Quryah, and Juzayyirah (occupied by Bahrain Defence Force as officers club).
