Notes
Under the Umayyads Jerusalem was known by its Roman name Iliya Filastin, but from the time of al-Ma’mun it was given the Islamic religious name al-Quds (meaning «holiness» or «sanctity»). This almost certainly refers to the shrine of the Dome of the Rock. This is the only coin on which al-Quds appears as a mint name.
