| | The city is revered as the holiest site of Islam, and a pilgrimage to it is required of all able-bodied Muslims who can afford to go, at least once in their lifetime. | | | Non-Muslim historians do not accept these scriptural assertions, but do believe that Mecca was a shrine and trading center for a number of generations before the Islamic prophet Muhammad. | | | The word is a transliteration of the original Arabic, and has become part of the English language as a metaphor for a centre or ideal place. |

| | The birthplace of Lord Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, is believed to be in Nepal. | | | As for Medina, the supposedly number two in the Islamic pantheon of holy cities, its claim to fame is the fact that Prophet Mohammad founded his first commonwealth there and was later laid to rest there. | | | Uniquely, of all the recorded rulers of the Holy City, the State of Israel has guaranteed and actually protected the equal access of adherents of all three faiths to the shrines in question. |

| | Jews were forbidden to enter the city, but for a single day of the year, The Ninth of Av (see Hebrew calendar), when they could weep for the destruction of their city at the Temple's only remaining wall. | | | Jerusalem (Hebrew: ירושלים Yerushalayim, Arabic: القدس al-Quds) is an ancient Middle Eastern city (31°47'N, 35°13'E) of key importance to the religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. | | | However, the city was overcome by the Babylonians in 598 BC, who then took the young king Jehoiachin into eternal captivity, together with most of the aristocracy of that time. |
