Dome of the Rock Jerusalem - 10 fils
This postage stamp was issued by the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan in the mid-1950s as part of a definitive series designed to celebrate the nation's most profound historical, cultural, and spiritual landmarks. Following the unification of the West Bank with Jordan in 1950, the Jordanian administration oversaw the custodianship of the holy sites in East Jerusalem. By featuring one of Islam's holiest and most architecturally renowned monuments on the state's official postage, the government sought to project its role as a dedicated guardian of these sacred sites and affirm their central place in the kingdom's identity. The landmark featured in this issue is the Dome of the Rock (Qubbat al-Sakhra) in Jerusalem, an iconic masterpiece of early Islamic architecture completed in 691 AD during the Umayyad Caliphate. Renowned for its magnificent octagonal structure and majestic dome, the monument stands at the heart of the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound (Haram al-Sharif). Representing this sacred shrine on the country’s everyday postal network served as a powerful symbol of spiritual authority and cultural pride, carrying the image of Jerusalem's enduring heritage to correspondents both across the region and around the globe.
