Jerusalem.
The city is Jerusalem, in modern-day Israel/Palestinian territories.
This city is holy to the three different faiths for three different reasons.
- Jews: The tribes of Israel were united by King David, who ruled in Jerusalem, and for over a thousand years, Jerusalem was a seat of Jewish sovereignty.
- Christians: Jerusalem was the city in which Jesus (peace be upon him) was brought to as a child to be presented at the Temple and attend festivals, as recounted through the canonical gospel of Luke. Jesus also preached in Jerusalem, and the city of Jerusalem is mentioned over 650 times in the Old Testament of The Bible.
- Muslims: Jerusalem is significant for many reasons, the first being that it was the site of many prophets sent to the Jews, such as David, Solomon, Elijah, and Jesus (peace be upon them all). Jerusalem was also the first direction of prayer in Islam, before it was changed to Mecca. Also, Jerusalem was a place that Muhammad (S) visited on his journey to the heavens, and he prayed in Jerusalem. This story is mentioned in the first verse of Chapter 17 in the Holy Qur'an.
