Israel attacks religious symbols
Israel escalated its war against religious symbols in the city of Jerusalem after a fabricated indictment was filed against the preacher of Al-Aqsa Mosque, Dr. Sheikh Ikrimah Sabri, under the pretext of incitement.
This criminal step is considered a dangerous Israeli escalation and a crossing of all red lines, as Israel seeks to fight Islamic religious concepts derived from the Holy Qur’an and the Noble Prophet’s Sunnah, which sheikhs, preachers and imams rely on in prayers and speeches, but Israel is waging an unprecedented war against them without the slightest legal justification, whether in Israeli criminal law or international law.
The Israeli authorities claim through the prosecution that when Sheikh Ikrimah Sabri gave two condolences speeches for the martyrs Raad Hazem in Jenin and Uday al-Tamimi in the Shuafat camp, he identified with terrorism. In fact, the sheikh offered his condolences out of a social duty and in accordance with Palestinian traditions and customs, using words of sympathy and condolence to alleviate the suffering. It is a grave injury, as everyone says, and thus Israel took advantage of this opportunity in an attempt to attack Sheikh Dr. Sabri after years of arrest, detention, and investigation, despite his advanced age.
Sheikh Ikrima Sabri is considered a religious platform and a window of the Al-Aqsa Mosque to the Arab and Islamic worlds. He is the voice of the mosque, the voice of Jerusalem, and its beating heart. Hence, this miserable Israeli attempt is considered a hostile step, not only to undermine the pride of Sheikh Ikrima Sabri, but also of all Muslims in the homeland, and its motives are without The slightest suspicion is purely political, as it paves the way for more extremist incursions into the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, and is considered the beginning of more steps targeting the nation’s religious symbols. It also aims to incite the safety of Sheikh Ikrima Sabri by settler groups, and Israel, with its heinous action, bears full responsibility for the security of the country. And the safety of Sheikh Ikrimah Sabri, and all the preachers and imams of the mosque and the worshipers in Al-Aqsa Mosque and the mosques of the nation..
The Israeli authorities may never criminalize religious concepts and place them on the tables of the judicial system, and this behavior is consistent with the policy of chaos and hysteria that dominates the Israeli government, which follows the whims and plans of extremists whose attack on the nation’s religious symbols is considered tantamount to a war on the Islamic religion, its teachings, and the Qur’an.
