The Dome of the Rock (Arabic: قبة الصخرة, translit.: Qubbat As-Sakhrah, Hebrew: כיפת הסלע, translit.: Kipat Hasela, Turkish: Kubbetüs Sahra) is a notable Islamic shrine[1] for pilgrimage[2] in what Muslims call masjid al-Aqsa or the Noble Sanctuary (al-Haram al-Qudsi al-Sharif, Arabic: الحرم القدسي الشريف) — which Jews and Christians call Har ha-Bayit (Hebrew: הר הבית) or the Temple Mount — it remains one of the best known landmarks of Jerusalem. It was built between 687 and 691 by the 9th Caliph, Abd al-Malik. It is often mistakingly[3] referred to as Mosque of Umar, the actual mosque of Caliph Umar ibn al-Khattab residing next to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.

The Problem with everyone in the middle east is everyone always has to claim something that doesn´t belong to them. Everyone knows all over the arab world Jerusalem was and still is an Arab territory, Just because the Jewish higher up says they claim something doesn´t mean they was there. The Land Palestine which also known in just the american and Jewish books the name in 1947 Israel still is a arab territory including the Gaza and Westbank. If it wasn´t for Britian helping the Israeli people out during that time period Jews wouldn´t be around in the middle east in the begging as they so called claimed. Anyway; Great photos and I am enjoying all of it. Just seeing it reminds me of my ancestors and for what they lived for
