Musjid ul Aqsa- The second house of Allah:
Abu Dhar (RA) reported that he asked the Prophet (SAW)
“O Prophet of Allah (SAW), Which Masjid was built 1st on earth¨? The Prophet (SAW) replied, “The Sacred Masjid of Makkah¨. Abu Dhar (RA) again asked, “Which was next¨ ? The Prophet (SAW) said, “The Masjid Aqsa¨. Masjid-ul-Aqsa: Its virtues and significance. Abu Dharr (RA) further asked “How long was the period between the building of two Masajid¨? The Prophet (SAW) said, “40 years. Apart from these, offer your prayers anywhere when it is time to pray, although excellence is in praying in these Masajid¨.
Sahih al Bukhari
The importance of visiting Masjid al-Aqsa:
Abu Hurairah (RA)relates that the Prophet (SAW)said,
“You should not undertake a special journey to visit any place other than the following three Masajid, with the expectation of getting greater reward : the Sacred Masjid of Makkah, this Musjid of mine (SAW), and Masjid al-Aqsa (of Jerusalem)¨.
In another narration the words are, “For three Masajid, a special journey may be undertaken:
The Sacred Masjid (Ka’bah), my Masjid (SAW), and the Masjid of al-Quds (Jerusalem)¨.
Sahih al Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, and Sunan Abu Dawd.
Greater virtue of praying in Masjid al-Aqsa:
Anas ibn Malik (RA) relates that the Prophet (SAW)said,
“The prayer of a person in his house is a single prayer; his prayer in the masjid of his tribe has the reward of 25 prayers; his prayer in the Masjid in which the Friday prayer is observed has the reward of 500; his prayer in Masjid al-Aqsa (i.e al-Aqsa Sanctuary) has a reward of 5,000 prayers; his prayer in my Masjid (SAW)(Madinah) has a reward of 50,000 prayers; and the prayer in the Sacred Masjid (Ka’bah) at Makkah has a reward of 100,000 prayers¨.
Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah.
The virtues of wearing Ihram from Masjid al-Aqsa: Umm al-Mu’minin, Umm Salmah (RA), relates that the Prophet (SAW) said, “If anyone puts ihram for Haj or Umrah from Masjid al-Aqsa and then proceeds to the sacred Masjid, his former and latter sins will be forgiven or he will be guaranteed Paradise¨.
The narrator Abdullah (RA) was not certain which of these words were said.
Sunan Abu Dawud.
Muawiyah ibn Abi Sufyan (RA)relates that the Prophet (SAW) said,
“There is a group among my followers who will continue to be openly on the truth. No one who
opposes them will harm them, until the coming of the Hour¨. The companions (RA) asked, “Where will they be¨? The Prophet (SAW) replied, ” They will be in and around Bayt al-Maqdis¨.
