Title: Jerusalem.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: JERUSALEM - THE HOLY CITY The Dome of the Rock #1232 The Dome of the Rock, or Kubbet es-Shakhra, is said by Arab historians to have been built in the 7th century by ‘Abd el-Melik as a Moslem shrine. A splendid example of Moslem architecture, the shrine rises above the Holy Rock, which, according to the Talmud, covers the mouth of an abyss in which the waters of the Flood are heard roaring. Abraham and Melchizedek are said to have sacrificed here. The Dome was regarded as the center of the world, and the spot upon which the Ark of the Covenant stood. Moslems maintains that beneath the Rock is the Bir el-Arwah, or well of the souls, where the souls of the dead assemble to pray twice weekly. Mohammed himself prayed at the shrine and declared that one prayer there was worth a thousand elsewhere. Legend says Mohammed was translated to heaven from this spot on the back of el-Barak, his miraculous steed. Hairs from the Prophet’s head are preserved at the shrine, and in it are also several Korans of great age. This unusual picture was made from the window of the Grand Mufti’s room in the office of the Moslem Supreme Council of Palestine. (No. 6 of a Series)
