What do people think of the destruction of this Holy place? The muslim voice seems to be very silent on events taking place in Syria and Iraq. ------------- Let us seek Truth together Blessed be God forever "I believe in Jesus as I believe in the sun... not because I see it, but because by it, I see everything else.: - C.S.Lewis |

| A shrine dedicated to a Prophet is haram. It is considere grave worship. |

So everyone feels that it is no issue that this shrine was destroyed? Would they feel that way if the ka'aba was destroyed... or any of the shrines memorializing Muhammad? ------------- Let us seek Truth together Blessed be God forever "I believe in Jesus as I believe in the sun... not because I see it, but because by it, I see everything else.: - C.S.Lewis |

LOL First of all we do not really know where exactly the prophets of Allah Subhana Wa Ta'ala are buried except Prophet Muhammad (SalAllahu Alayhi Wa Sallam). Even if we do it is haraam to venerate it. The Kaba'a is not a shrine but the first place of worship built on earth. It is simply a masjid. ------------- La Ilaha IllAllah |

So it would be ok if the Dome of the Rock were destroyed? No big deal, since these places are 'not venerated'? ------------- Let us seek Truth together Blessed be God forever "I believe in Jesus as I believe in the sun... not because I see it, but because by it, I see everything else.: - C.S.Lewis |
