was al aqsa constructed bu Umar (ra)?
If yes then where did the prophet (pbuh) lead the prayer for all the prophets?
~~~Assalamualycum,
I heard the people are having the wronq conception of Al-Aqsa Masjid.
The Rock Dome is often considerd as Al-Aqsa Masjid.
Masjid-Al-Aqsa is a place were prophet Muhammed(pBUH) has lead all the Prophets in Salah on the NIGHT OF MERAJ.And During his interval in Jerusalem, the Prophet stopped to pray at the rock (now covered by the golden Dome), and was given the commandment to pray five times a day,it is called Dome Of Rock(NOT MASJID-E-AQSA).
People often consider Dome of Rock as Masjid-Al-Aqsa.Masjid-E-Aqsa is the Third Holy Mosque in Islam and seconde oldest Mosque in Islam.
It is a trap led by Zionists,who are potrating Dome of Rock as Masjid-E-Aqsa and Slolwy,slowly demolishing the walls of original Al-Aqsa Masjid and digging tunnels under it.
Please have a careful look on both the Masjids.
THIS IS MASJID-AL-AQSA:Were Prophet lead all the Prophets in Prayer.And it is third holy mosque in Islam.
THIS IS DOME OF ROCK:Were Prophet stopped to pray during his interval in Jerusalam
HERE YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE BOTH THE MOSQUES:
Please pass on to all..............
Jazak-Allah

I am still confused with this matter.
I know that the journey of the holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) took place from Makkah to Masjid al Aqsa (al Isra) and his ascension through the heavens (al Ma'araj).
When in Masjid al Aqsa Haram Shareef the Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) led Salaah and was followed by all the previous Prophets Alayhis salaam.
"Glory to Allah who did take His Servant for a journey by night from the Sacred Mosque (in Makkah) to the Al-Aqsa (in Jerusalem) whose precincts We did bless (al-Isra 17: 1)
The Lord Almighty had at in His power to have taken the Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) from Makkah straight up to the heavens. However, to impress the importance of Jerusalem upon Muslims the Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) was first taken to Masjid al Aqsa in Jerusalem.
Abu Huraira [ra] is quoted as saying that Allah's Messenger [Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam] said, 'set out deliberately on a journey only to three mosques: this mosque of mine (in Medina), the Sacred Mosque (in Makkah) and the Masjid al Aqsa (in Jerusalem) (Bukhari & Muslim)
The virtues of praying in Masjid al Aqsa are exalted:
Abu Darda [ra] is quoted as saying that the Prophet of Allah Muhammad (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, a prayer in the Sacred Mosque (in Makkah) is worth 100, 000 prayers, a prayer in my mosque (in Medina) is worth 1, 000 and a prayer in Jerusalem is worth 500 prayers more than in an any other mosque. (Bukhari)
But what's the significance of Masjid Qubbat As-Sakhrah (Dome of the Rock)?
