Homework:
The Al-Aqsa Mosque is considered the third holiest site in Islam, after the Kaaba in Mecca and
the Prophet's Mosque in Medina. It holds this esteemed position due to its association with the
miraculous Night Journey of the Prophet Muhammad.
This mosque's history is intertwined with the history of Al Quods itself. It is believed that the first
stone was laid on the site of Al-Aqsa in the 7th century, making it one of the oldest standing
structures in the city. The current structure, with its distinctive silver dome, was built during the
Umayyad Caliphate in the 8th century.
Al-Aqsa Mosque is not only a symbol of Islamic heritage but also a political symbol for the
Palestinian people. It has been a focal point in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and remains a source
of tension in the region.
Beyond its religious importance, the mosque serves as a gathering place for Muslims during
religious festivals and Friday prayers, further emphasizing its role as a spiritual and communal
center.
