The Prophet Salallahu Alaihi Wasallam's Prayers in Jerusalem

The kibla of the Muslims, this entire time is el-qutz. While all of the holy life in Jerusalem has been completely reduced to pieces, the Muslims are praying towards Jerusalem. And so it's important to understand them when it is not when marriage takes place and who ruled Jerusalem at the time? The Persians. So there was nothing of churches, nothing of any worship or anything that was taking place in the area of El-qsa. It was a neglected area because the Persians had no need for it. At that point they neglected it and let it be.
