Question:
Please, Khalid, join us from al-Jawf. Peace be upon you. And upon you, peace.
Answer:
And upon you be peace. Shaykh, I love you for the sake of Allah. May Allah reward you with good. May Allah praise you. Long may you live, Shaykh. One of the young men present asked us, saying: "The sacred lands are three." I said, "No, they are four." He cited two verses from the Qur'an: "Take off your sandals, for you are in the sacred valley of Tuwa." Is this correct, Shaykh? No, it is not correct. The lands for which visiting and praying are prescribed are al-Masjid al-Haram, al-Masjid al-Nabawi, and al-Masjid al-Aqsa. Yes, al-Masjid al-Aqsa.
