The White Mosque (Arabic: المسجد الأبيض a-Masjid al-Abyad, Hebrew: המסגד הלבן haMisgad haLavan) is an ancient Ummayad mosque in the city of Ramla, Israel. Only the minaret is still standing. According to local Islamic tradition, the northwest section of the mosque contained the shrine of a famous Palestinian saint, Nabi Salih.
An earthquake in January 1034 destroyed the mosque, "leaving it in a heap of ruins", along with a third of the city.
