Palestine also has the honor of being the first Qibla of Muslims after the obligation of prayer. After the Hijra, Hazrat Jibreel (peace be upon him) directed the master (peace be upon him) from Masjid al-Aqsa (Palestine) to Baitullah Ka’ba al-Mashrafah (Makkah) during the prayer. The mosque in which this incident took place is still called the Qiblatin Mosque.

Sayyidna Abu Dharr says that I asked the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, which was the first mosque built on earth? So he said: Masjid al-Haram (i.e. Kaaba). I asked after that?

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Forty years, and Whenever time comes for prayer, pray, for that is a mosque (for you).”
The temptation of apostasy to Hazrat Abu Bakr after the departure of Habibna, may God bless him and grant him peace, and others despite the dire need of military and manpower to deal with many problems, it is also an unforgettable fact that he sent the army prepared by the Prophet (peace be upon him) to the land of Syria (Palestine).

The name of Yat al-Maqdis used to be Quds before the Qur’an, when the Qur’an was revealed, it was renamed Masjid al-Aqsa. Quds is due to the sanctity of this city which distinguishes it from other cities. More than 5000 Companions of the Prophet Rizwanullah Alaihim Ajmeen sacrificed their lives to acquire this city and save it from the oppression and tyranny of the Romans. And the chapter of martyrdom is not closed till today, the series is still going on. This city is thus a city of martyrs.
The importance of Masjid Al-Aqsa and Balad al-Sham is exactly the same as Haramain al-Sharifin. When this verse of the Holy Qur’an was revealed (Al-Tain and Zaitoon, Watoor Sinin and this is Al-Balad Al-Amin), then Ibn Abbas says that We made the land of Syria from “Al-Tain” figs, the land of Palestine from “Al-Zitoon” from olives, and Al-Taur Sinin from the mountains of Egypt. He reasoned from the mountain on which Hazrat Musa (peace be upon him) spoke to Allah.
And from this holy verse of the Holy Qur’an (Walqd Kitbna fi al-Zoor min baad al-Dhikr أن الذرس يرثها عبادي السلاهون) it was argued that the Ummah of Muhammad is actually the inheritor of this holy land.
The greatness of Palestine can be estimated from the fact that the reward of every prayer offered here is increased 500 times.
