The Nuba inscription is an early Islamic text that was found in a mosque near Hebron. The inscription identifies the Dome of the rock as "Bayt al Maqdis" or "The Holy Temple", "Beit haMikdash" in Hebrew This finding suggests that early Muslims were aware of the Temple Mount's significance as the site of the Jewish Temple and viewed the Dome of the Rock as a symbolic reestablishment of this sacred space.
