Jerusalem
Reader comment on item: Jerusalem Means More to Jews Than to Muslims

Submitted by Dalia (United Kingdom), Dec 17, 2008 at 14:22

But Jerusalem has the Al-Aqsa Mosque on which the profphet Muhammd had visited whilst making a journey called the Safa wal Marwa (i think) and so he did visit the mosque and after all it is the third holiest in the Islamic faith. The Qur'an might not say anything about Jerusalem but it does say a lot about prayer and well there's a mosque there so that must be related to jerusalem slightly.
