Those Jews and evangelical Christians who say an undivided Jerusalem should be the eternal capital of Israel have a ready answer for anyone who questions that claim: The Bible says so.
The most often-cited text is 2 Chronicles 6:5-6, wherein King Solomon quotes God as saying, “Since the day that I brought my people out of the land of Egypt, I chose no city in all the tribes of Israel in which to build a house, that my name might be there, and I chose no man as prince over my people Israel; but I have chosen Jerusalem that my name may be there and I have chosen David to be over my people Israel.”
The Bible could hardly be more clear, it would seem.

Also from the book of Muslim- Al Quran say that Allah has order / command Muhsmmad pbuh to move from Al Aqsa ( Jerusalem) to Al Haram ( Mecca).
“What has turned them (Muslims) from their Qiblah [prayer direction (towards ,Mesjidil Aqsa,Jerusalem)] to which they were used to face in prayer.” Say, (O Muhammad SAW) ” Surely, We shall turn you to a Qiblah (prayer direction) that shall please you, so turn your face in the direction of Al-Masjid- Al-Harâm (at Makkah). And wheresoever you people are, turn your faces (in prayer) in that direction. Certainly, the people who were given the Scriptures (i.e. Jews and the Christians) know well that, that (your turning towards the direction of the Ka’bah at Makkah in prayers) is the truth from their Lord.
That this is verily the word of an honoured Messenger [i.e. Jibril (Gabriel) or Muhammad SAW which he has brought from Allâh]. Q.69:(40) . o they not then consider the Qur’ân carefully? Had it been from other than Allâh, they would surely have found therein many contradictions. Q.4:(82) Then in what statement after this (the Qur’ân) will they believe? Q.77:(50)
And the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) will say: “O my Lord! Verily, my people deserted this Qur’ân (neither listened to it, nor acted on its laws and teachings).Q.25: 30. Those who reject Allah’s commandment will be punished severely.
