Mihrab and Mimbar of Masjid al-Aqsa | Jerusalem | Palestine
بالقرب من, Derekh Ha'ophel St 5, Jerusalem
This marble structure is the mihrab (prayer niche) of the Qibly mosque which is at the front of Masjid al-Aqsa. The mimbar (pulpit) on the right was donated by the Jordanian government after the original (which was a gift from Salahuddin Ayyubi) was destroyed in a fire started by a fanatical zionist in 1969.
