The rock is located at the heart of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, specifically under a Dome of the Rock, which was named after it.
Many rumors were said about that rock, including that it was flying in the air, and some said that the water and large springs were running beneath it. Others said that it has followed the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, when he ascended to the skies in Al-Isra’a night. This is all a mere fallacy, because it is a normal rock.
There is a building above the octagonal rock. It is one of the most beautiful structures built of architectural artifacts where an altar erected above the rock in the Crusader period. It is surrounded by a wooden wall dating back to the Ayyubids period.
There is a sinus in the Honorable Rock where it said that Jibril (peace be upon him) broke the rock with his finger and made this sinus, these are common myths and the truth is that the Crusaders turned the Dome of the Rock into a church when they were ruling, and turned the Rock into an altar.
Also, they made this sinus to make the blood of the sacrifices flow into the cave.
