(詳細はJerusalem in the Muslim religious tradition. The al-Aqsa masjid in Jerusalem is built on the site of the second temple. Al-Aqsa is the third holiest site in Sunni Islam after the mosques of al-Haram in Mecca and al-Nabawi in Medina.〔Ali (1991), p. 58〕 # It is strongly associated with the Biblical prophets David, Solomon, Elijah and Jesus. # It was the first direction of prayer in Islam, before the Kaaba in Mecca; # According to the Quran, the Islamic prophet Muhammad was taken by the miraculous steed Buraq to visit the Farthest Mosque (which many Muslims believe is the Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem), where he prayed, and was then taken to heaven, in a single night in the year 620 This event is known as Isra wal Mi'raj, in Islamic tradition. Muhammad's journey to the Farthest Mosque is mentioned in the Qur'an, in the verse (17:1). The verse states: It is then specified in the Hadith, the sayings of Muhammad, that the Al Aqsa Mosque is indeed located in Jerusalem: Islamic tafsirs (commentaries) hold the term "the farthest Mosque" (literally ''al-masjid al-Aqsa'' in Arabic) referring to the Noble Sanctuary in Jerusalem. ==See also== * Holiest sites in Islam * Islamization of Jerusalem 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jerusalem in Islam」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
