   The "when" is left vague.   
      
   If Muslims stole it from Jerusalem, it must have been after the Muslim   
   conquest of that city, and presumably also after their conquest of   
   Egypt. But "eventually" is a pretty indeterminite time.   
      
   I think Fardles has just as good a claim.
