Did Abd al-Malik Build the Dome of the Rock to Shift the Hajj from Makkah to Jerusalem ?

The Jew­ish Ori­en­tal­ist Ignaz Goldz­i­her claimed that the Umayyad Caliph ​‘Abd al-Malik ibn Mar­wan had built the Dome of the Rock to pre­vent the peo­ple of Syr­ia and Iraq from the Hajj (pil­grim­age) to Makkah and in order to reli­gious­ly jus­ti­fy this act, his friend Al-Zuhri fab­ri­cat­ed the hadith of ​“Do not set out on a jour­ney…” It does not need to be men­tioned that this is indeed one of the won­ders of lying, dis­tor­tion and manip­u­la­tion of his­tor­i­cal facts. Nat­u­ral­ly, the Chris­t­ian mis­sion­ar­ies get very excit­ed when they see polem­i­cal mate­r­i­al like Goldz­i­her’s, and hence duti­ful­ly par­rot it with­out check­ing for clar­i­fi­ca­tion. Hence, it is left to the Mus­lims to fill in the void of scholas­tic integri­ty left by the missionaries.

Paul Says That Mark Is Futile : No Res­ur­rec­tion In Mark’s Gospel

The Bible Ibn Anwar -
But the first of the four gospels, i.e., the Gospel accord­ing to Mark, appar­ent­ly did not receive Paul’s memo. And this is a very impor­tant point as we keep in mind that each of the gospels were ini­tial­ly divorced from each oth­er and were writ­ten in dif­fer­ent local­i­ties for dif­fer­ent audiences.

The Gospels’ Accounts Regard­ing the Call of the First Disciples

Bible Con­tra­dic­tions Mohd Elfie Nieshaem Juferi -
So which is the cor­rect Gospel account con­cern­ing the choice of Jesus’ first apos­tles ? The fol­low­ing Bible con­tra­dic­tion was extract­ed from an unpub­lished the­sis enti­tled Ibn Hazm On The Doc­trine of Tahrif which cites Kitab al-Fasl fi al-Milal wa al-Ahwa’ wa al-Nihal and insha’allah this will be part of an ongo­ing series to repro­duce extracts of Ibn Hazm’s crit­i­cisms of the Bible and Christianity.
