1. Makkah - Kaa`ba

2. Madina - Masjid an Nabawi

3. Jerusalem- Masjid Al Aqsa.....

Do you know what Masjid Al Aqsa looks like?

Is it this???

Are you sure?

i heard about it, but i didn't belive, is it real so ?

[Ra`eesah]

Assalamu'Alaykum


Yes it is true. This pic Is acually called " The Dome of the Rock" or Masjid Qubbat As-Sakhrah. ====>

Al Aqsa Masjid is this====>

[soraia]

Jazak'Allah... for pointing this out!!

Brother Jazak'Allah for removing such a misconception,but I remember watching a Palestinian documentary,and there was a Palestinian man praying in the Golden Domed Mosque.Then when he was asked how he felt praying in Masjidul-Aqsa he said that he felt so happy to be in the same masjid where Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) descended during Al-Isra Wal-Micraj and that he felt closer to Allah.What I can't figure out is that if that man was a Palestinian born citizen(which he was)then how can he not distinguish between the real Masjidul-Aqsa and the Golden Domed Mosque?Also in the video Palestine - Al-Aqsa(In the media section) why is the singer standing right before the Golden Domed Mosque and why doesn't the whole video show a pic. of the real Masjidul-Aqsa?

My question just to sum it up is,do the Palestinians even know the exact Masjid they're sacrificing their lives for?

The Dome of Rock is the point where the Prophet salalahu alyhi wassalam did ascend, however it can never be masjid Al-Aqsa, and the truth of the matter is that most of the Muslim Ummah today wrongly mix the two up.

alhamdulillah that you cleared that up...

:sl:
Akhi I'm sorry,but I'm confused.You said the Prophet ascended and descended at the Dome of the Rock right?Before I ask my question are the dome of the Rock and Masjid Al-Aqsa the same?
:w:

[Khaldun]

:sl:

Apoligies for the confusion :brother:

The Dome of the Rock is the place of lift off and touch down if you want to call it that, but the masjid Aqsa is the one mentioned in the Quran and where the Prophet salalahu alyhi wassalam lead all the other Prophets in salah. And no Dome of the Rock and Aqsa dont mean the same, and as shown in the illustration, are different masjids.

Brother you said that The Dome of the Rock was the place of ascension and descension,but in the Quran Surat Isra verse 1 he says: "Who took his slave(for a journey from Masjid Al-Haram) to Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa..........." Proving that Masjid Al-Aqsa was the place of ascension and descention and not the Dome of the Rock.

Allah says:
سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي أَسْرَى بِعَبْدِهِ لَيْلاً مِّنَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ الأَقْصَى الَّذِي بَارَكْنَا حَوْلَهُ لِنُرِيَهُ مِنْ آيَاتِنَا إِنَّهُ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ البَصِيرُ
{Glory to (Allah) Who did take His servant for a Journey by night from the Masjid Al-Haram to Masjid Al-Aqsa, whose precincts We did bless,- in order that We might show him some of Our Signs: for He is the One Who heareth and seeth (all things)}(Al-Quran 17:1)

[Khaldun]

:sl:

hehe yes it does say the Prophet salalahu alyhi wassalam was taken from masjid haram to masjid Aqsa true :) but what I meant does it say "and then We took him up from masjid aqsa" or something equvelent? The ayah doesnt state that. So in short the Prophet was taken from the haram in Makkah to the Haram in Jerusalem, but the actually ascension took place at the spot where the Dome of the Rock stands today.

[Ummu Amatullah]

:sl:
Brother I'm sorry,but does that even sound logical?It's also a known fact that he only stopped at one Masjid and not both Masjid Al-Aqsa and The Dome of the Rock,and if you're saying that he ascended from The Dome of the Rock like my aqeeadah teacher always says,"Madha Daleel."?
:w:

[Khaldun]

:sl:

Sister, if we look at the history of Islam we will straight away see that at the prophets time there were never two masjids there, dome of the rock was built later, so the prophet never visited two masjids :brother: the dome of the rock never exsisted.

As for the daleel the verse says, "whose precincts We did bless" and the Dome of the Rock is clearly in its precincts (meaning suroundings)

Brother I think you answered your own question.The whole point you were making was that the prophet ascended at The Dome of the Rock,then you say that the Dome of the Rock didn't exist in the Prophet's time.

I knew before, but it was nice to underline it in my thoughts.
Thank You

[Khaldun]

No sister I didnt mean he ascended from inside the building which is today known as Dome of the Rock, we both know that it didnt exsist at that time, I apoligies if it seemed that way. What I meant is that from that area the prophet salalhu alyhi wassalam made his ascension, do you understand?

Masjid Al Aqsa

Subhanallah...Is it TRUE? Masha Allah, how cant I notice about this? I think most of muslims should know this :) Cause if we mention masjid Al Aqsha, then our imagination go to the masjid with the gold kubah ;D . Masha Allah. Jazakallah khair bro

[Muslim Knight]

We know that during the Prophet's Night of Ascension, Haram al-Sharif (the Dome of the Rock) wasn't built yet (it was built later when Khalifah Umar r.a. conquered Jerusalem). But what about Masjid al-Aqsa? I mean, from historical viewpoint, we know that Al-Aqsa was the Temple of Solomon which the Romans pulled down after the ascension of Nabi Isa 'alayhi salaam. Since then it hasn't been rebuilt by the Jews.

My question is, did our Prophet Muhammad pray (with the other Prophets) in the Masjid Al-Aqsa or did he pray on the ruins of the Temple (which we later come to know through the Revelation) as Masjid Al-Aqsa?

May Allah reward you.

Yes I knew about this before, It's a pity that not many people realize this though. It's just wonderful the way they can so easily divert peoples attention from the actual thing isn't it? *sarcasm*

[Nablus]

did you know thatthey are buildigna tunnel under it and therefore weakening it and it will collapse sooner or later

and Palestinians are prevented from praying in it

[Pk_#2]

AsalamuAlaykum,

Nice post jazakhala :)

I didn't know but know i do, i always thought it was the mosque with the gold dome, i done a presentation on masjud Al-Aqsa but the illustrations were of the other mosque buh nobody corrected me, am guessing they were confused aswell!

Peace.

JazaakAllahu khairan for underlining the difference, brother
WaAssalaaamou3alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuhu

[chacha_jalebi]

salaam

can i jus ask pwease!! is it true that masjid al sakhra - dome of rock, is called dome of rock becuase the dome has rock in it :D

is this because when RasoolAllah (saw) ascended 2 heaven the earth tried 2 cum up with him & he told it 2 stop & wait because its time will come & the earth has stayed der in the air & they built dome of rock mosque on it? is dat true or not :D jazakhallah

The reason why I posted this up is not becuase I want ou to fight them....The reasonS why i posted it up is to:

1.To clearify the difference between the Dome of the Rock (gold dome) and Al Aqsa (Green dome :wub:)

2.To show you the plans of the Jews of Israel

3. To Boost awareness :)

jazakAllah khair even tho i was always aware of the israelli's treachory :p

No need to make dua or war. Just tell the Jews they can build the 3rd Temple on the day they can PROVE Ezra performed the Hora'as Sha'ah.

lol thatss like an unknown language to me.

Would appreciate if someone can explain this to me inshaAllah :)

[afriend]

Hora'as Sha'ah.

Is this like some sort of ceremony?

Bear in mind Jews say that Ezra is the son of god :uhwhat

It decides whether or not the Temple mount is even fit. According to their records, the Temple mount was permenantly desecrated when Antioch sacrificed a pig on the Temple's Azarah (altar). The damage was irreversable, but some argue that when Ezra returned from Babylon, he performed a ritual called the Hora'as Sha'ah - a very powerful petition to God. If he performed that ritual, what happened after that time, doesn't matter because the ground was permenantly blessed and sealed. The debate itself appears in the record of Temurah 15, and was even debated at Sanhedrin, but it was never proven.

As for the son of God title, any scholar who was married and 40 could access certain teachings and could bear that title. It was not exclusive to any one person.

Well, I just thought it would help to understand the issues that are involved in a task like that. They have to be obedient to their own religious laws and, if you don't know what they are, how can you call them on it?

I was watcing this programme on Islam Channel yesterday it it said that the area of masjid-al-aqsa is 1440 cubic square metres or something along those lines. It also said that the Dome of Rock is not Masjid al-Aqsa but a part of it just like the other building which the presenter called Masjid Qibly.
