I actually did a seach on an online version of the koran in English and got no hits on Jerusalem.

I am no expert but have heard interpretations that indicate that it was. The Koran seems to be much like the old Test. where interpretation by religious poobahs is the thing that folks believe. I am a member of no religion because of this. I worship and honor God in private and without confusion of interpreters. I also avoid the political BS that religions seem to get themselves intertwined with. I feel that is out of their job description.
