This picture shows the actual rock which the mosque the Dome of the Rock is build around. There is no place for prayers just beneath the dome of this mosque, as the rock surfaces the area. However, there is a cave within the rock where one can pray. The structure at the left is built upon the area of the rock where the Prophet (saws) put his foot on, to climb the animal "Buraq". His (saws) footprint is still there on the rock.
