The Roman destruction of Jerusalem happend in AD 71. Because the Judeans would not embrace Roman Rule, the Romans literally destroyed Jerusalem as well as the 2nd Temple at that point and all Jews were forced to leave hence the diaspora.
Islam as a religion did not happen until Mohammed (born approximately 570 AD). In the beginning only Mecca and Medina were claimed as holy cities.
