I have notice that the contention over the Temple Mount is always over Al-Asqua as the site of the Temple. Apparently both sides now think the Temple was not under the dome of the rock but somewhere in the plaza in front of Al-Asqua . My reading of some archeology there and some ancient pilgrimage accounts to Jerusalem has lead me to believe that the rock under the dome wasn’t the foundation stone as attributed, but Gabbatha, the judgment seat of Pilate in the Praetorium that was in the fortress Antonia which overlooked the courts of the Temple. During the Byzantine era a church named Hagia Sophia was built housing this rock as described by early pilgrimage accounts. If true, the resulting configuration of the platform where the Temple stood would be in the southwest corner of the platform which makes sense with the historical records like Josephus who described the much smaller dimensions of the Temple than is currently envisioned. Gabbatha then, in the location above the Temple (the word Gabbatha itself meaning elevated place in Aramaic and the rock is the summit of Mt Moriah) also provides the context for the caliph Al-Malik’s anti-Christian inscriptions surrounding the rock inside the Dome of the Rock. The September cover story of the National Geographic reported that recent mosaic findings underneath the visible mosaics indicate that the first Umayyad caliph Muʿāwiya had initiated the construction of the dome of the rock which was later Islamisized by the caliphs ʿAbd al- Malik and his son Al -Walid. Muʿāwiya had built other monuments on the Temple Mount during his reign and evidence from the coins that he minted and from the accounts of the Armenian chronicle point to him as having been a Christian of some sort. The mosaic inscriptions inside the dome surrounding the rock were made by caliph Al-Walid according to what is written in them but his father ʿAbd al-Malik may have actually initiated the inscriptions during his reign only to have been finished by his son Al-Walid. The ornate mosaics above the inscriptions are very similar to the ones in the Great Mosque of Damascus which lends support to the theory that Al-Walid had a part in their creation since he built the Damascus mosque over the ancient cathedral shrine housing the head of St. John the Baptist. There is also archeological evidence that al-Walid’s Al-Asqua mosque was the site of another church which seems to followed the pattern for these early Umayyad mosques. An excavation was carried out in the 1930s by R.W. Hamilton, director of the British Mandate Antiquities Department and he found and photographed the mosaics of a possible church or monastery under the floor of the then recently earthquake damaged mosque. Knowing that there were Christian churches under the sites of these two great monuments helps to explain their otherwise mysterious location and this comports well with the recent book by Stephen Shoemaker where he shows Al-Malik’s significant Islamization of the Quran. It is reasonable to think that this same powerful caliph Islamized the Temple Mount as well.
profound contribution... the islamisation by Abd al- Malik and his son Al -Walid is being corroborated with what dr.Jay Smith has theorized on this subject
Dear Brother Rachid, we christians are thankful for your service to the Lord Jesus. Kindly put link on ways how to support your ministry to the Lord. God bless and thank you
Thank you brother Rachid and brother David and could you please translate all the episodes in English as much as you can that because I’ve a lot of friends in US need to watch them . Thank you again and God bless your steps.
The Massacre of Oct 7 in Israel 🇮🇱 to me, has become a valley of decision for the entire world, for every individual, where the line is drawn, and where he/she stands. Just like Pharaoh against the God of Moses, he was put into the same valley of decision 10 times, and he failed all of it. Even the 10th time was, to the ancient Egyptian king, a momentary lapse of judgement, before he mustered all his remaining pride to defy the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I see this threshold point in time as the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob goading every person on earth to not waste time in coming to a definite decision on who’s side you want to be on: His side, or not.
I think this kind of content is so important as a basic education for a lot of people. Todays generation with easy access to internet surely got too many information but they don't filter it. A lot even very huge amount of hoax and misinformation simply because they don't double check the truth.. never. Either they're too lazy or too dumb to do it.. I don't know. I think this is the real problem.. probably the root cause. Why? Because I found that there so many muslims that being sane and logic (use their brain as normal people) leave islam soon after they found out the truth themselves. I don't really care they become atheist or christian or budhist or whatever, but as long as they leave the satanic cult full of hate called islam, they'll be just fine. Some people said it's like cancer with almost no cure but the truth is it's not that hard.. just use common sense. And this kind of content simply ease a little to gain that process. So keep up the good work there. GBU all.
Jerusalem is not mention at the Koran not even once, it doesn't said that the end of the night jorney is in Jerusalem, only in the Hadith which was written later on...
MUHAMMAD DID NOT CARE ABOUT KILLING WOMEN AND CHILDREN S.Bukhari vol 4 , Book 52 , hadith no 256 Narrated As-Sab bin Jaththama: The Prophet ﷺ passed by me at a place called Al-Abwa or Waddan, and was asked whether it was permissible to attack the pagan warriors at night with the probability of exposing their women and children to danger. The Prophet replied, "They (i.e. women and children) are from them (i.e. pagans)." I also heard the Prophet saying, "The institution of Hima is invalid except for Allah and His Apostle." حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنِ الصَّعْبِ بْنِ جَثَّامَةَ ـ رضى الله عنهم ـ قَالَ مَرَّ بِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِالأَبْوَاءِ ـ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ ـ وَسُئِلَ عَنْ أَهْلِ الدَّارِ يُبَيَّتُونَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، فَيُصَابُ مِنْ نِسَائِهِمْ وَذَرَارِيِّهِمْ قَالَ " هُمْ مِنْهُمْ ". وَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ " لاَ حِمَى إِلاَّ لِلَّهِ وَلِرَسُولِهِ ﷺ ". Classification : Sahih (Authentic)
They are exposing the false prophet, fortunately the truth hurts and you should reconsider your beliefs if you worship the ideology of Islam #StayAwayFromIslam
Full of lies this video and full of misguiding fake messages.. next time bring a Muslim of knowledge to the conversation oops you won’t do it because that’s will ruin your agenda
This is the truth. Your quran, hadith, tafsir and sirah are all full of lies. Mo and his puppet allah played well..and soon carried by the caliphate.. propaganda after propaganda of the evil cult..
You guys never give a counter factual argument against what they say. Instead, you are always saying & accusing people to have bad agendas against Islam. U know they are telling hard century old truths 😅
All you do is to accuse Muslims critics of having an agenda, Islamophobia… but you never give counterproductive and factual arguments against what these people are calling-out Islam for.
I hope they continue this series.They are both so smart,truthful and they compliment each other
very TRUTHFUL indeed!!🤣
This series with Dr. David Wood is very informative and solid. Thank you very much brothers Rachid and David. May God richly bless you for your works!
God bless your mind and your mouth to spread the truth to the world.
Brilliant conversation.Thank you for the truth.

Why did Muhammed chose Jerusalem and travel from there to fly for a night journey instead of flying from Mecca or Medina?
Waiting inside a bird? WTF 😂😂😂😂
Am Ysrael chai!💙🤍💙
Al Aqsa mosque was in Al Juraana in Arabia
What about the Red Cow sacrifice?
Jerusalem is not mention at the Koran not even once, it doesn't said that the end of the night jorney is in Jerusalem, only in the Hadith which was written later on...
Without lies Islam dies that the ugly truth!!!

They are exposing the false prophet, fortunately the truth hurts and you should reconsider your beliefs if you worship the ideology of Islam #StayAwayFromIslam
Full of lies this video and full of misguiding fake messages.. next time bring a Muslim of knowledge to the conversation oops you won’t do it because that’s will ruin your agenda
No agenda here it's only the truth that hurts you
This is the truth. Your quran, hadith, tafsir and sirah are all full of lies. Mo and his puppet allah played well..and soon carried by the caliphate.. propaganda after propaganda of the evil cult..
