We need an introduction explaining on what basis a particular site attains "holiness". Chesdovi (talk) 13:26, 12 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Conceptions of holiness relating to the al-Aqsa Mosque, the Dome of the Rock and the plateau area

Re, discussion at: Talk:Temple Mount#Conceptions of holiness relating to the al-Aqsa_Mosque.2C the Dome of the Rock and the plateau area

Apparently some people regard holiness to be a significant issue and I was wondering, does anyone know how this works?

Clearly, on purely moral grounds the only justification for restricting access to any group of people, on the Temple mount site is that the land has long been in the possession of "Palestinians" and is part of Occupied territories.

Obviously there has been a lot of water under the bridge with regard to Jewish, Arab relations in Israel but, apart from that, is there any religious reason to say a person needs to pray with a mat rather than with a box on their heads? Is there any reason why believers of certain religions may be restricted from access while a shoeless non believer can saunter around at will?

Al-Aqsa is quoted as being the third most holy spot in Islam and I'm wondering about the extents of the mosque and whether it really includes the grounds (and thus the Dome) or not. As far as I've got so far is to find Majmoo’at al-Rasaa’il al-Kubra, 2/61: “Al-Masjid al-Aqsa is the name for the whole of the place of worship built by Sulaymaan..." I have yet to find the extent of his building efforts. Any thoughts on this??

Personally though I think that the world would be a safer and, arguably, saner place if the whole site were given over to another popular religion. Failing that I think it would be worth getting some clarity. The Jews seem to view just the southern building as being the mosque while the Muslims seem to think of the whole plateau as having third rank status.

Will appreciate responses at: Talk:Temple Mount#Conceptions of holiness relating to the al-Aqsa_Mosque.2C the Dome of the Rock and the plateau area

Should this article be merged with Holiest sites in Islam?

edit

These two articles cover broadly the same topics. Leo1pard (talk) 13:25, 29 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
