I don't know why this thread was moved to Islam Forum.
My question was if both Jews and Christians do not believe the grave of Moses which Muslims believe in.
I was asking if it is something muslims only believe in.
I moved it because it makes more sense to be in the Islam forum.
Only Muslims can answer that. In my 70+ years, have never even once heard or read a single Christian or Jew posit that anybody even knows where Moses was buried.
Several of the posts you started in the main Religion and Spirituality forum should have been moved, but were not. At least two were closed. In the threads you started, you only appeared to be interested in the Muslim point of view, which is better presented in the Islam forum. We will continue to move threads to appropriate sub-forums.
According to some Christian traditions, Moses was buried in an unknown location and his body is no longer there, as it was taken to heaven. This is how Moses (along with Elijah) was able to converse with Jesus during the Transfiguration.

according to this site Islamic Landmarks.com, also in Islam the burial site is not known:
"The exact place where Musa (عليه السلام) is buried is unknown "
But muslims visit the grave of Moses, though. For what reason, then? My friend, as a muslim, believes in the grave of Moses. I watched islamic videos on youtube and saw muslims believing in that actually.
the Angel of Death was sent to Moses (peace be upon him) to inform of his Lord's summons.
When he came, he (Moses) boxed him and his eye was knocked out.
He (the Angel of Death) came back to the Lord and said:
You sent me to a servant. who did not want to die.
Allah restored his eye to its proper place (and revived his eyesight),
and then said: Go back to him and tell him that if he wants life he must place his hand on the back of an ox,
and he would be granted as many years of life as the number of hair covered by his hand.
He (Moses) said: My Lord what would happen then
He said: Then you must court death.
He said: Let it be now.
And he supplicated Allah to bring him close to the sacred land.
Thereupon Allah's Messenger (ï·º) said: If I were there, I would have shown you his grave beside the road at the red mound.
