第三聖殿
在公元70年第二聖殿被毀之後,猶太教徒希望能在聖殿山上建造第三聖殿(希伯來文:בית המקדש השלישי,拉丁化希伯來文:Beit haMikdash haShlishi)。祈禱神對此事的應允是猶太教每日三次的禱告中正式的一部分。儘管聖殿尚未建成,其概念和猶太人對其建立的渴望在猶太教(尤其是正統猶太教)中仍是神聖的。《塔納赫》中記載了先知對第三聖殿建立的預言,稱其會在彌賽亞時代被實現。
聖殿的平面圖記載於《以西結書》第40章至第47章中(書中記載的聖殿與第一、第二聖殿在在外觀、佔地面積等方面皆不相同,因此被認為是對未來的第三聖殿的描寫)。另外,在庫姆蘭發現的死海古卷的聖殿捲軸中亦有類似記載。
穆斯林的觀點
編輯許多穆斯林,以生活在阿拉伯國家的穆斯林為主,視第三聖殿的修建為對伊斯蘭教的公然冒犯。因為聖殿山上已有阿克薩清真寺和圓頂清真寺存在,而猶太人則認為阿克薩清真寺立於原聖殿的廢墟上。今天大部分穆斯林將這一地區視為聖地,並堅持認為自己對這一地區擁有主權。[1][2]
