Temple Mount
(redirected from Har Habayit)

    Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Temple Mount

Holy site on top of Mount Moriah in Jerusalem, on which the Temple of Jerusalem stood. The Muslim shrine, the Dome of the Rock, and the al-Aqsa mosque are now situated here, though the Wailing Wall remains part of the wall enclosing the compound.

The September 2000 visit to Temple Mount by the right-wing Israeli Likud party leader, Ariel Sharon, sparked a violent reaction by Palestinians that precipitated a second Intifada (Palestinian uprising).
