Muslims took over the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem in 637 CE during the early Islamic conquests. After the city was captured by Caliph Umar ibn al-Khattab, the Al-Aqsa Mosque was built on the Temple Mount, where the Second Temple once stood. This event marked a significant shift in religious and political control of the site, which continues to hold profound significance for both Muslims and Jews.

What is in the temple of Jerusalem?

The Israelite/Hebrew/Jewish Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans in 70 CE. It stood on the place called the Temple Mount / Har HaBayit, of which the Kotel ("Western Wall", "Wailing Wall") is the only surviving component. So there is presently nothing in the 'temple of Jerusalem', as there has been no temple of Jerusalem for over 1900 years.
