In Sura 17: 1
There is a description of Muhammad's (His[Allah's] servant) being taken on a journey from the Sacrad Mosque (According to Yousuf Ali: the Ka'bah in Mecca) to the Farthest Mosque, pressumable a sanctuary Jerusalem.
My question is, which:
What does the Koran mean by farthest?
Which or what kind of sanctuary has he in mind here?
Could somebody please comment on this issue?
