CAIRO, (PIC)-- Grand Mufti of Egypt Ali Juma’h stated Saturday that the Israeli intention to storm the Aqsa Mosque during this month and establish a huge synagogue near it would aggravate the crisis and lead to the explosion of the whole region.
Juma’h said in a statement that such a step does not only provoke the feeling of Muslims around the world, but also it flagrantly violates heavenly religions and the international law.
He called for taking judicial moves with international courts against Israel to curb its violations against the Islamic holy sites, warning that the Israeli decisions to seize Palestine Mosques would threaten international peace and security.
For his part, Hamas spokesman Yousuf Farahat also warned on Friday of Israel’s intents to open a synagogue close to the Aqsa Mosque next Tuesday and called on the Muslim Nation to urgently move to defend the Mosque before it is too late.
He called on the Palestinian people to participate in the massive popular sit-in to be held next Tuesday outside the legislative council.
In a related incident, Al-Bayarik foundation said on Saturday that it organized a march of more than 30 buses boarded by hundreds of Palestinians from the 1948 occupied lands to the Aqsa Mosque, but the Israeli occupation police prevented most of these buses from reaching their destination.
For its part, the Aqsa foundation for endowment and heritage reported that the IOF troops are still imposing a tight siege on the Old City of Jerusalem and the Aqsa Mosque and bar Palestinian worshipers under the age of 50 from praying in the Mosque.
Information director of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt Hamdi Hasan, for his part, strongly denounced the Egyptian security apparatuses for quelling marches held in different areas of Egypt in protest at the Israeli violations against the Islamic holy sites in Palestine.
“As the Zionist forces prevent the Muslims in Palestine from heading to the Aqsa Mosque, the Egyptian security forces have launched a campaign of attacks on those who protested the violations against the Islamic holy sites, and arrested dozens of them,” Hasan said.
