Yes, There were Muslims in El-Quds but there were also Greek, Christians, Romans and others.
For the Jews it was always the main city of yearning and prayer. For us it was, if to be honest only another conquest.
I believe that it should be open to all religions exactly as much as I believe the great Mosques of Mecca and the chapels of the holly city of Vatican needs to be open other religions.
Jews pray facing Jerusalem.
Muslims, while during early times might have prayed towards Jerusalem, now face Mecca.
Even when we were facing Jerusalem it was most likely because of practices taken from Jewish tribes that influenced our religion tremendously.
While Jerusalem is mentioned in the Thowrah hundreds of times, very clearly and vividly, it is not mentioned even once in the Holly Qur'an. Some will say that I didn't understand that it was implied there but I tell them, why to imply a place that has such a significance in our faith?
Never in History was Jerusalem more open to so many people with different faiths like it is today under Israeli control. I can see why this bother's some Muslims, they have no value in having other than Muslims (Usually also from the same branch only) to be able to access Jerusalem.
I just don't understand how most of the world don't see the obvious.
Look at Israel on the map. Tiny!! Look at the Arab countries. HUGE!! Should we ask Israel to give land to the Palestinians? how about the Arab countries? لماذا نحن نطلب من الدولة اليهودية لإعطاء الأرض للفلسطينيين عندما كان العرب والأشقاء الفلسطينيين ، والكثير من الأراضي الفارغة وأنهم لن يعطوا أي شيء. هناك شيئا خطأ هنا.
This is very well put! As an Iranian Muslim I never learned any of this - we were just taught to hate Israel. However, these facts are very interesting!

READ WWW.RADIOISLAM.ORG.. NOW. (( The following is an excerpt from an article written by an American Jew - Dr. Edna Homa Hun - a fifth-generation member of a Jewish family from Palestine, who is now an American citizen living in Massachusetts and Florida.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
September marked 11 years since Mordechai Vanunu informed the world - via an interview published in the London Sunday Times - that Israel was producing nuclear weapons; confirmed that there was an atomic reactor in Dimona; and that there already existed in Israel a stockpile of at least 200 nuclear bombs.
Accounts of Vanunu's capture, so-called trial, and punishment are too well-known to bear repetition. However, his 18-year sentence and his banishment to an isolation cell in Ashkelon prison bear witness to Israel's nuclear reality, widely suspected within Israel itself (it is after all, a very small country) and recently, and briefly, discussed publicly in the July 30 issue of Israel's Hebrew daily Yediot Ahronot.))---JFGFW-OI.GOD SALAM=PEACE TO YOU ALL,WORLD.
Wow... This guy is like trying to look like one of those fanatics that makes us all look bad or what?
ReplyDeleteBy the way not only that he didn't answer the question how Jerusalem is more important than Mecca but he actually confirmed that it's only 3rd in place.
Now, I wonder why would it be 3rd in place? Oh, yea, because Mohammed aleiho asalam wasala, visited in Jerusalem and met with other profits. Right....
No evidence that he ever visited Israel. Problem...

You mean Arabs are good with propaganda, check Amer Al-Bayya. The guy makes us look really bad.
ReplyDeleteI never said that Jerusalem is ours. In fact I truely believe that it is first and foremost Jewish and not Muslim.
You better check your records about "Palestinians" deffending Jerusalem from the Mongols.
There were no Palestinians till 50 years ago. It's a new thing. read my blog about it. Read Ahmad Shukeiry's words about it.
