The Plot Against Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque (2/2)
I say to
all Muslims across the far reaches of the East and the West: you must rise to
safeguard your sanctities, for this cause shall not be resolved except through
Jihad. A thief, by his very nature, will never surrender unless confronted by a
superior power. It is for this reason that Western nations have sought to
ensure that Israeli armament surpasses that of all Arab states combined, even
permitting the stockpiling of weapons of mass destruction, so that it may
impose its will upon the region by sheer force.
The Illusion of Power and the Collapse of Prestige
We
maintain that if the Arabs are currently incapable of direct military
confrontation, then at the very least, borders should be closed. At the very
least, the theft of this land must not be recognized. And at the very least,
there must be a categorical denunciation of the establishment of a Jewish state
on Arab Muslim soil—land that has remained Arab and Muslim for millennia.
Therefore, I say that the Zionist entity is by no means an invincible
superpower. We have witnessed their defeat at the hands of small forces of
Mujahideen in Lebanon; we have seen their failure in the battles against Gaza;
and we saw their numerous setbacks during the October War of 1973.
Therefore,
we say that the attempts to intimidate Arabs and Muslims with Israeli military
prowess are entirely groundless. One’s lifespan is in the hands of Almighty
God, and Jihad is a religious duty incumbent upon every Muslim man and woman.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 'If even a handspan of Muslim land is
encroached upon, Jihad becomes a compulsory obligation.' Thus, I appeal to
Muslims across the globe, as well as fair-minded individuals of other faiths,
to resist this diabolical attempt to seize Arab Muslim land and forcibly
Judaize it under the weight of American and European weaponry. This is
occurring under the pressure of Crusader-like fanaticism against Islam and
Muslims, and a deep-seated animosity toward other races—rooted in the belief
that they are 'God’s chosen people,' His children and His beloved, while
viewing other nations as mere creatures in human form, created only to be fit
for serving them.
Prophetic Tidings of
Inevitable Victory over the Jews
Therefore,
I maintain that anyone who reads the verses of the Holy Qur'an and the Hadiths
of the Chosen Prophet (PBUH) realizes with absolute clarity that the cause of
Palestine will not be resolved except through Jihad. The Jews are the most
cowardly of God’s creation; by God, when confronted with true strength, you
will find none on earth more faint-hearted than them, regardless of the
weaponry they possess. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) gave us glad tidings of
victory over them, saying: 'The Hour will not begin until you fight the
Jews—you to the east of the river and they to its west—until the stone and the
tree say: "O Muslim, O servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come
and kill him," except for the Gharqad tree, for it is the tree of the
Jews.' It is for this reason that we see the Jews planting Gharqad trees in
massive numbers throughout the land of Palestine, and even in the territories
bordering the Palestinian frontiers.
Zionist Deception: Attempts to Falsify
History and Reality
I warn
Arabs and Muslims of the Zionist deception that seeks to forge history.
Throughout the ages, the Jews have excelled at distorting facts and deceiving
the masses. The latest example is a book I saw today, being distributed by the
embassy of this Zionist entity in Egypt—though Egypt should never have
permitted these thieves to establish an embassy on its soil in the first place.
The book is titled 'Children of Abraham: An Introduction to Judaism for
Muslims,' and they have inscribed on the cover: 'And We gave the
Children of Israel the Scripture and judgment and prophethood, and provided
them with good things and preferred them over the worlds.' This is pure
deception. If you believe in this noble Quranic verse, why then do you not
believe in how the Holy Quran stigmatized you for distorting the Book of Allah,
forging lies against Him, and deceiving history? If you believe in this verse
that praises you—know that this praise is not for you; it was for the followers
of Moses (PBUH) when they were the only monotheistic nation on earth. It
certainly does not apply to this dregs of nations and this refuse of peoples
who occupy the land of Palestine by force today.
Therefore,
I warn Muslims against such falsification and forgery, which attempts to
portray the Jews as people of faith, 'People of the Book,' and bearers of a
divine message. I proclaim at the top of my voice: the Jews of today are not
Jews; they have no connection to Abraham (PBUH), no connection to Jacob (PBUH),
and no connection to Moses (PBUH)—their supposed Prophet. Why do they attempt
to latch onto Abraham or Jacob? The Jews of today—whether Russian, Bulgarian,
Romanian, Czech, French, British, or American—have no link to this land and
must return to where they came from. God willing, the moment will come when the
truth becomes manifest to all, and the call to Jihad will resound throughout
this Arab region; then, no remnant of the Jews shall remain. If they were to
destroy Al-Aqsa Mosque while we, a billion and a half Muslims, stand by as mere
spectators—I truly do not know what we would say to the Lord of the Worlds.
The Historical Truth of
Al-Aqsa Mosque Since the Beginning of Creation
I beseech
Allah, the Most Generous, Lord of the Mighty Throne, to awaken hearts and
minds, and to alert Muslims to the danger posed by the Jews. May they not be
led astray by this cheap propaganda and the systematic falsifications that have
filled books and distorted the historical narrative of the entire world. I
declare that these people possess neither honor, nor covenant, nor treaty; they
are notorious for betraying their word. Therefore, it is absolutely
impermissible to reconcile with them, establish peaceful or diplomatic
relations, open borders for trade, or welcome their tourists. These are grave
violations of Sharia for which our Blessed and Exalted Lord will hold the
perpetrators to a severe reckoning—on a Day when neither wealth nor children will
avail, except him who brings to Allah a sound heart.
I say it
once more, echoing the words of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH): 'If even a
handspan of Muslim land is encroached upon, Jihad becomes an individual
obligation; the son goes forth without his parents’ permission, the wife
without her husband’s, and the servant without his master’s.' The hour of
mobilization has come, O Muslims! Rise to rescue the destination of your
Prophet’s Night Journey! Rise to save the First of the Two Qiblas and the
Second of the Two Holy Sanctuaries! Rise to safeguard the second place on Earth
where Allah was worshipped—a site that has been a mosque since the day it was
founded by the angels. It was never a temple for the Jews; it was never a
temple for David, nor for Solomon. This is one of the holiest sites of Islam.
We beseech you, by Allah, to sacrifice your lives and your most precious
possessions to save it.
I still
recall the late Haj Amin al-Husseini—may Allah have mercy upon him—who used to
publish a magazine titled Al-Quds. On its cover, he would write: 'The
Jerusalem of Arabism is a sacred yoke upon your necks; so rescue it by the
truth the Surahs have brought.' O Allah, I have delivered the message; O Allah,
bear witness. Our final prayer is: Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds, and
may the peace, blessings, and grace of Allah be upon our Master Muhammad. Peace
be upon you, and the mercy and blessings of Allah.
