Muslim Answer

The holy land is in:

  • Mecca where the Kaaba is located, surrounded by the Grand Mosque or Al-Masjid Al-Haram. It is the birth place of Prophet Muhammad and where Muslims go for pilgrimage (or Hajj).
  • Medina where there is Al-Masjid Al-Nabawi (the Mosque of the Prophet) and where Prophet Muhammad is buried, and
  • AlQods Alsharkiya (that is called in English Eastern Jerusalem) in the Palestinian Occupied Territories, where Prophet Muhammad ascended to the Heavens, by a Divine Miracle, and returned back. It is also holy land for having the main Orthodox Cathedral.

Christian Answer 1

As a Christian, the Holy Land is Israel with an undivided Jerusalem the most important city since Christ was born there. All this, however is not too relevant to Christians since the Holy Spirit now resides in us, not a temple made by hands.

Christian Answer 2

Israel is, because it was where Christ Lived on earth.

Answer 4

The holy land is located in the Eastern part of Jerusalem. It is a holy land for all God religions and is located withing the Palestinian Territories. There is also the holy land of Kabaa in Makkah (or Mecca) in Saudi Arabia.

The Holy Land is more than just the "Eastern part of Jerusalem." It is ALL of Israel.

Israel is generally considered "The Holy Land" because of its mass of historical land marks related to several Islam, Judaism, and Christianity. For Judaism, Israel is the land they possessed in Biblical times and is considered by them to be their birth right. There are many sacred sights for them such as the Wailing Wall and the place of the Temple of Solomon. It's importance to Christianity is for many of the same reasons as Judaism (as they share the Torah as a Holy Book), but also because it was sight of the Crucifixion and many other events pertaining to Jesus Christ. The most important Muslim site is probably the Dome of the Rock, and was held by them for centuries.
