Hama, also known in antiquity as Hamath, is a city in Syria that is located about 132 miles north of Damascus. It was destroyed around 720 BCE by Sargon the Second. In 1982, it was again decimated in an attempt to uproot the Muslim Brotherhood which had made its home there. This is really the only connection of note that the city has with Islam.
