Minister of Awqaf, Islamic Affairs, and Holy Places, Dr. Mohammad Khalayleh, condemned in the strongest terms the escalation of Israeli violations against Al Aqsa Mosque/Al Haram Al Sharif by enabling the extremist Jewish occupation police to violate sanctity of the mosque in an unprecedented manner, never witnessed since the occupation of the city of Jerusalem in 1967.
In a statement, the minister warned of the consequences of preventing most Muslims in Palestine and the world and blocking their access to pray in Al-Aqsa Mosque.
The minister added that Israeli authorities guard violations of the extremist Jews and their attempts to make radical changes to Al-Aqsa Mosque from the inside and outside to achieve hidden and declared goals to Judaize the mosque, which is the most dangerous stage of altering its historical and legal status quo.
The minister affirmed Muslims’ adherence to their religious, historical and legal right to Al-Aqsa Mosque/Al-Haram Al-Sharif under the custodianship of His Majesty King A
bdullah II, as this site is a purely Islamic mosque for Muslims exclusively and does not accept division or partnership.
Khalayleh called on the Arab and Islamic nations to assume their responsibilities and exert pressure on the Israeli occupation to stop its attempts to control Al-Aqsa Mosque.
Furthermore, he warned against the escalation of Judaizing measures in the holy sites and their surrounding areas, which could fuel a more dangerous situation.
