(Mimarlık) Mosque of Omar. Oldest existing Islamic monument. It is located on Temple Mount, previously the site of the Temple of Jerusalem. The rock over which it is built is sacred to both Muslims and Jews. In Islam, Muhammad is believed to have ascended into heaven from the site. In Judaism it is the site where Abraham prepared to sacrifice his son Isaac. Built in 685–91 as a place of pilgrimage, the octagonal building has richly decorated walls and a gold-overlaid dome mounted above a circle of piers and columns
The Dome of the Rock is the shrine in Jerusalem which makes Jerusalem the third holiest city in Islam It is set over an outcropping of bedrock on which the Holy of Holies of the Jewish Temple supposedly rested It is from here that Mohammed rose into heaven on his Night Journey Although the shrine is sometimes called "The Mosque of Omar," the Dome of the Rock is technically not a mosque
The golden-domed mosque on Temple Mount in Jerusalem that marks the third holiest site in Islam, the site from which Muhammad ascended to heaven on his "night journey" (surah 17) The site most probably stands on the exact location of the Second Jewish Temple, destroyed by the Romans in 70 C E (see Al-Aqsa, Haram al-Sharif)
Built in 691, it is the third holiest Muslim site, after Mecca and Medina The dome surrounds the spot which Mohammad is said to have begun his mystical Night Journey into heaven
This is a Muslim mosque (like a church building or Jewish synagogue) that is currently built on the Temple Mount As this is Israel's most holy site this blasphemous building is very putrefying to the God of Israel However, it is because of this building that the TMF cannot gain access to the Mount to begin building the Third Temple
Name of the famous masjid in Jerusalem built around 691 C E by the Umayyad caliph Abd al-Malik The rock within the masjid structure is believed to be the point from which Muhammad was miraculously ascended to Heaven in 619 C E
