Reconstruction of the original Church of the Holy Sepulcher
  • between August 31 and October 18 : Al-Hākim bi-amr Allāh has the Christian Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem destroyed. According to Christian tradition, the miracle of light that took place there on Holy Saturday aroused the caliph's disapproval as a pious fraud and influenced his decision to demolish it. The Patriarch of Jerusalem will be informed in good time about the decision of the caliph, which is why most of the relics and movable church treasures can be brought to safety in good time and ultimately only the old Constantinian building as such will be destroyed. In particular, the rock grave , which was still largely intact at that time, was demolished. The event triggers such horror that the reverberation quickly reaches the West and there, too, triggers an undreamt-of wave of indignation.
