Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. Ibn Khuzaymah (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned in his book *Tawhid* a report from 'Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan that the Lord (Mighty and Majestic) places His foot upon the Rock. What is the authenticity of this statement?

The Shaykh:
As far as I know, there is no basis for this statement. The desert has no special status; only the Jews exalt it. Yes.

The questioner:
He says:

The Shaykh:
To al-Aqsa Mosque, not to the Rock. It is only the Jews who exalt the Rock.
