Al-Nabi Rubin was a Palestinian village located 28 kilometers northeast of Acre. Al-Nabi Rubin students used to attend school in nearby village of Tarbikha.

Military assault

The village was captured by Israel as a result of the Haganah's offensive, Operation Hiram during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war and was mostly destroyed with the exception of its shrine and its inhabitants were completely ethnical cleansed.

A shrine thought to be dedicated to the prophet Rubin is the only structure that remains on former village's lands. [ [http://www.palestineremembered.com/Acre/al-Nabi-Rubin/index.html al-Nabi Rubin: Town Statistics] from palestineremembered.com]
