Masjid al-Aqsa (Bayt al-Maqdis)?

Published: 19/05/2021


The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
"There is not an inch of Al Quds
were a Prophet or an Angel has not stood."
[Ahmad]

The Prophet ﷺ said, “There shall always be a group of my Ummah clearly upon the truth, subjugating their enemies. Those who oppose them will not vanquish them - except for some calamities that shall (occasionally) befall them. And they shall remain upon this until the command of Allah (Day of Judgment) comes.”
He ﷺ was asked: “And where will they be?”
He ﷺ replied, “In Bayt al-Maqdis, and the neighbourhoods around Bayt al-Maqdis.”

[Ahmad in his Musnad]

Do You Know?

Which is Masjid al-Aqsa
Bayt al-Maqdis ?


Quote: "Just then, God showed me the Baytu’l Maqdis. While looking at it, I described every detail one by one. They even asked me, “How many doors does the Baytu’l Maqdis have?” however, I had not counted its number of doors. When I saw the Baytu’l Maqdis across from me, I began to look at it, count each of its doors and told them the number.” [
Ibn Sa’d, Tabaqat, V. 1, p. 215; Muslim, Sahih, V. 1, p. 108.] 



 Isra (Night Journey) and Miraj (Ascension)

They asked the Prophet (s) proof after proof that he went there. When the Prophet (s) told them that he went to Masjid al-Aqsa in Jerusalem, the Qurayshis objected to him by saying, “How could Muhammad go to a place that takes a month to go and return in one night?” Then, those who had seen Masjid al-Aqsa before asked him, “Can you describe Masjid al-Aqsa to us?”

 The Prophet (s) narrated the talk between them as follows:

“... Allah showed me Baytu’l Maqdis. While looking at it, I described every detail one by one. They even asked me, “How many doors does Baytu’l Maqdis have?” However, I had not counted its number of doors. When I saw Baytu’l Maqdis across from me, I began to look at it, count each of its doors and told them the number.”

[Ibn Abi Shayba, Musannaf, V. 14, p. 306; Ahmad b. Hanbal, Musnad, V. 1, p. 309; Abu'l-Faraj Ibn Jawzi, al-Wafa, V. 1 , p. 223; Dhahabi, Tarikhu'l-Islam, p. 250.]

Quran 17:4
And We decreed for the Descendants of Israel in the Book that, "You will indeed create great turmoil in the earth twice, and you will surely become very proud."



Tafsir al-Jalalayn
And We decreed We revealed to the Children of Israel in the Scripture the Torah ‘You shall indeed work corruption in the land the land of Syria through acts of disobedience twice and you shall indeed become great tyrants’ you shall perpetrate grave injustice.

 Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
(And We decreed) in the Torah (for the Children of Israel in the Scripture: Ye verily will work corruption) you will indeed commit acts of disobedience (in the earth twice, and ye will become great tyrants) it is also said that this means: you will be mightily overpowered.

 [Quran 17:4]
