Summary
This Bayan Linnas states that the issue of Al-Aqsa Mosque and Palestine concerns the entire Muslim community and not only the Palestinian people. Al-Aqsa holds a special status as an earlier qibla, the destination of the Isra journey and one of the three mosques to which travel is encouraged. Negligence by Muslims could make it easier for enemies to take control, so those who desecrate its sanctity must be condemned and action taken against them. The history of this holy land should also be continually taught to younger generations.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Isu Palestin dan Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa bukan isu untuk rakyat palestin sahaja. Ia bukan semata-mata isu individu. Ia adalah isu yang melibatkan umat Islam keseluruhannya.
