Third Temple

The timeline beginning since Prophet Jesus ﷺ:

	1st century | map Prophet Jesus came to Jerusalem. [QA] Then the Jewish-Roman wars erupted, and the Roman Emperor Titus besieged Jerusalem. The Second Temple was destroyed. وليتبروا ما علوا تتبيرا [Q17:4-7 | QA] The Jews became a diaspora.
	2nd century | map The Roman emperor Hadrian rebuilt a Roman colony on the ruins of Jerusalem. After the Jews revolted during Bar Kokhba, they were exiled. The city was renamed Aelia Capitolina Αιλία Καπιτωλίνα (إيليا كابيتولينا), and the province Syria Palaestina Συρία ἡ Παλαιστίνη (سوريا فلسطين). [? QA] REF REF
	4th century | map Christianity was embraced & became a dominant faith in the Roman Empire. The Roman emperor Constantine I built the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. He declared Byzantium as the new capital, renamed Constantinople Κωνσταντινούπολις.
MILLENIALS	7th century | map The Romans in Jerusalem was defeated by the Persians. REF It was under Persian rule, that Prophet Muhammad ﷺ visited the Temple Mount in the miraculous Isra Mi'raj. [QA] ROSH Years later, the Roman emperor Heraclius REF defeated the Persians & recovered Jerusalem - as promised by Allah SWT. ويومئذ يفرح المؤمنون [Q30:2-6 | QA]

During the Isra Mi'raj, Allah SWT commanded muslims to pray daily - facing Jerusalem. After the migration to Medina, the direction of prayer was changed to Mecca. By Allah's Will, Prophet Muhammad did not restore the Jerusalem Temple, but in the last years of his life, he did restore the Kaaba. He restored the House of God as it was originally built by Prophet Abraham. After the restoration, he performed the hajj (pilgrimage) & made the qurban (sacrifice) - the way Prophet Abraham did. ^UMMAH

7th-20th century Islam spread far & wide. From the Romans, Jerusalem peacefully came under Caliph Umar Al Khattab. Assisted by Ka'ab Al Ahbar, he restored Al Quds (קודש قدس) to the faith of Prophet Abraham & offered protection (العهدة العمرية Covenant of Umar) - the Jews returned from exile. REF REF Then the Umayyad built the Dome of Rock. Muslims ruled for ~12 centuries, briefly interrupted by the Crusade.

1917 - present | map When the Ottoman fell, Jerusalem came under the British. The Hejaz Hashemite too fell after refusing the Balfour Declaration. REF Then KSA was born in 1932, while the State of Israel in 1948. In 1967, Israel took Jerusalem in the Six Day War. Still, by halacha Jews are forbidden to ascend the Temple Mount. REF | YNET Till present, the Islamic Waqf retains its management under the custodian of Jordan Hashemite.

Back in Mecca, the Baitullah (بيت الله : House of God) is undergoing massive expansion. [video] Even though still under construction, it is still welcoming pilgrims from around the world for the Hajj, every year. Pilgrims will perform rites in Mecca, and Muslims worldwide will offer هدى sacrifice (قربان : qurban). The Zam Zam water too still flows for the pilgrims in Mecca, and litres of the water is sent worldwide. الحمد لله

תמרה
לבבכם שלם

מצווה

For the Jews, the Promised Messiah will:
• build the Third Temple, where the sacrifice (קרבן : korban) is reinstated
• govern a state ("Medina" מדינה means "state")
• unite all mankind from across the world

So. Is this the Third Temple as narrated in the Book of Ezekiel?
The Jerusalem Temple will show the direction, to the south! (◠v◠)/
ירושלים (Jerusalem) → yareh (ירה : see, direct to) + shalom (שלום : peace)

I seek refuge in Allah SWT from errors
Only Allah SWT Knows Best والله أعلم
