Al-Aqsa Mosque is one of the largest mosques in the world and one of the three mosques that Muslims tend to travel to, and it is also the first of the two qiblahs in Islam.

Its area is about 144,000 square meters, and it includes the Dome of the Rock, the Qibli Mosque, the Marwani Chapel, the Bab al-Rahma chapel, and several other landmarks up to 200 landmarks. The Al-Aqsa Mosque is located on a small plateau called "Moria Plateau," and the rock is its highest point, and is located in its heart.

Said Al-Aqsa Mosque in the Qur'an: Praise the prisoners at night Babdh from the Grand Mosque to Al-Aqsa Mosque, which blessed us around to show him of Our Signs, He is the Hearing, the Seeing 1 Qur'an Al-Isra, verse 1.
