Statement in Appreciation of the UNESCO's Resolution on Al-Aqsa Mosque

All perfect praise be to Allah the Lord of the Worlds. May His peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Mohammad and upon all his family and companions.

 

The General Iftaa` Department appreciates the Resolution issued by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) confirming that Al-Aqsa Mosque and the entire Al-Haram al-Sharif are a sacred Islamic site dedicated to the worship of Muslims.

 

This honorable resolution issued by this global organization is a historic one expressing the living conscience of the world that rejects injustice, aggression and the usurpation of the historical rights of peoples. It also expresses support for the Palestinian people, our brothers, stationed in Al-Aqsa Mosque and throughout Palestine. We hope that this bold resolution will be an incentive for the international community to carry out its duty towards the Palestinian question as a true and just cause for both the Palestinian people and the Islamic nation.

 

As Jordanians, we are all proud of the historical Hashemite Custodianship over Al-Aqsa Mosque constituting a force and a preventive measure for protecting Islamic sanctities against Judaization, and keeping them as historical Islamic heritage bearing witness to the right of Muslims in this blessed land.

We ask Allah the Almighty to help us return Palestine and the Al-Aqsa Mosque to the possession of the Muslims, and to bless us with praying there safely, and all praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.
