Of course. No reason why it should have, since, after all, even long before the Temple was built, Abraham was a Muslim (Qur'an 3:67).
Note also this Sheikh's blood libel. "Arab leader denies temple ever existed," from the Jerusalem Post (thanks to Sr. Soph):
The al-Aqsa mosque was never the site of a Jewish temple, Sheikh Raed Salah, the head of the Islamic Movement's northern branch, said Monday during a press conference he convened in Jerusalem to respond to voices calling for the expulsion of Israeli residents of the city who participate in terror activities against Israel."Those calling for the expulsion of Palestinian residents of east Jerusalem are hysterical and stupid and belong in the trash can," Salah said at the conference.
He went on to deny any Israeli or Jewish historical claim to the city, denying that there ever existed a Jewish temple on the Temple Mount.
"The claims of the Jews are big lies and they have no right to any speck of dirt here," he said. [...]
"I think that we are at a critical time. We believe that al-Aqsa is in danger and that it is under occupation, and we believe that Jerusalem is in danger because it is under occupation," Salah said. "Jerusalem is not only houses - it is faith, it is history, it is a culture, it is a present, a future and an eternal right that we will not relinquish." [...]
During his sermon in Jerusalem's Wadi Joz neighborhood on February 16 of last year, Salah urged supporters to start a third intifada in order to "save al-Aksa Mosque, free Jerusalem and end the occupation."
Salah's speech also attacked Jews, saying, "They want to build their temple at a time when our blood is on their clothes, on their doorsteps, in their food and in their drinks. Our blood has passed from one 'general terrorist' to another 'general terrorist.'"
He also said, "We are not those who ate bread dipped in children's blood.

Are they up to the challenge?
There is more evidence that the Jewish Temple existed then there is evidence that Mohammed existed.
And if the Jewish Temple never existed, then the muslims would obviously have no problem with the Jews digging around the Temple Mount? Because if it never existed then there would be nothing for them to find....right?

alaskan1000,
Shame on you for suggesting that people need to follow clear logic! Are you a WITCH or something??? LOL

The "locust people" are at it again.
They have no regard for the antiquities of anyone.

Presumably this is down to the explosive little suicide bombers you keep sending in amongst them, Sheikh Salah? Perhaps then you should refrain from this behaviour if you are so concerned.

Koranists have a legit claim. Mo was there in a hallucination so nothing else counts.
I also heard Mo visited North America-12 flying camels brought his sled here-because of that Koranists can now put in a legit claim for this part of the world as well.

Start by booting him out. Promptly. Unapologetically. Just deposit him on the other side of the Jordan, or possibly merely put him into Gaza, and let him stay there. There is no need to put up with this. Years ago some of the "West Bank" mayors condoning, or involved in, PLO violence, were expelled to Jordan. Keep expelling. After a while it will become routine. And it will be a useful thing for the governments and peoples of Western Europe to observe, and to get similar ideas in dealing with their own, admittedly self-created, problems.

A stark-raving anti-Semite, otherwise known as a mainstream Muslim cleric, said
The claims of the Jews are big lies and they have no right to any speck of dirt here [...] We are not those who ate bread dipped in children's blood.
Let me guess, he's the moderate one of the "moderate" "Palestinian" delegation that Bush and Rice are pressuring the Israelis to "compromise" with.

Yessir, that-there Sheikh Raed Salah is one silver tongued feller.
Future Western populist leader: Islam never existed. The claims of the Muslims are big lies and they have no right to any speck of dirt here, or anywhere."

Remember the Irish psalms book found in the bog in 06. It was frozen open for 1000 years to psalms 83. They can try to steal the name of god but it is still Johova. They can lie but they can't get away from the truth of history.

article title.....
"Islamic leader: Jewish Temple never existed"
And 'obviously', the Dead Sea Scrolls are a Jewish archaeological fabrication, to fool the world into thinking that the 'ancient' Hebrew tribe had an actual theology, and a recorded religious text.
....and even a God, who's name was *not* Allah.

Damn.. what is he *ON*?!
These people are certifiably deranged. I'd say the good man is projecting.
A "palestinian" terrorist just killed eight unarmed Israeli students and this guy is assuming victim status. As long as Al-reuters, BBC and the rest of the pack reflexively rebroadcast these invectives he has incentive to keep doing it over and over again.
And what's with the Eucharist references?
Methinks he's been eating bread dipped in Koolaid.
The explanation is of course a much simpler one - he's naturally high on islam.

Oh, really? Then how do they explain this?
Did the Romans make up Titus's destruction of the temple in AD 70? For what purpose?
And what about these?
Where did all these fragments of the Tanakh come from, why are they so old, why do they speak of and prophecy about the Jewish temple?
An elaborate hoax, no?

You know, that was okay. Just something about the rhythm or repetition, or maybe the depersonalized generalizations (e.g. faith, instead of our faith, our history, etc.).
Anyway, Saleh, watch this, then try again.

Only a total scum cuold say that. This animal seems to forget it was his fathers who actively collaborated with the Nazis and when the wonderful Jordanians ran East Jerusalem, they expelled every Jew there. I'm sick of this divided capital stuff. Israel, if nothing else, should annex East Jerusalem outright and not let the PA use it as a base of leaching, fomenting and terrorism.

Gee. The temple existed in the Hebrew Bible. Does that mean that the Hebrew Bible is no longer a respected part of Islam?
This idiot doesn't even know his own religion. Of course, that's never stopped this crowd before.

Al Aqsa official: Jewish temples existed
"I am mentioning historical facts," said the former leader. "I know that the traditional denial about the temple existing at the same place as Al Aqsa is more a political denial. Unfortunately our religious and political leaders chose the option of denial to fight the Jewish position and demands regarding Al Aqsa and taking back the Temple Mount compound. In my opinion we should admit the truth and abandon our traditional position."
E. Sivan, “The Beginnings of the Fada’il al-Quds literature,”p. 265, "The date and place of composition of the first Fada'il al-Quds tracts induce us to the inevitable conclusion that as a matter of fact Jerusalem did not command such a paramount place in the consciousness of the world of Islam as we might be tempted to infer from the various extolling hadiths, dating from the eighth century onwards."

The Tawrat (Jewish scriptures) was declared tahrif (corrupted) during the time of Ibn Hazm (a couple of hundred years after Muhammad).
Posted by: Concerned Citizen at March 11, 2008 10:37 PM
No purpose is served by arguing over facts with such people. Just raze the damn masjid & scrape the temple mount clean. Undo the dream of Mohammad and his cockamamie midnight ride. It's an eyesore anyway.

So if we bombed the holy living hell out of Mecca and Medina and just acted like it never existed on live TV with their smoking ruins in the background, this dude would support us? Someone grab the chalk, we have some slogan to get writing on some daisy cutters.
Can't wait for someone to get the balls to blow that god damned mosque back to hell.
