The '''Dome of the Rock''' is an [[Islamic]] shrine rather than a [[mosque]]; it is considered the oldest extant Islamic building in the world and is adjacent to [[Al-Aqsa Mosque]], in [[Jerusalem]].   

The Dome of the Rock houses the rock upon which [[Mohammed]] is said to have ascended to heaven, coincidentally the same rock upon which [[Abraham]] offered up his son [[Isaac]] to God, to prove his faith.  It is also on the site of the [[Second Temple]] of Jerusalem, or, the platform known as the [[Temple Mount]] which Muslims refer to as the "Noble Sanctuary". The holiness of the site to the three Abrahamic faiths is intense, to say the least.
