O Muslims and Christians of the world, respond

Do Muslims see the colonial, racist, fascist attacks by foreign colonial settlers in their persistence, attacks, and attacks on the holiest of Muslim sanctuaries, the holy Al-Aqsa Mosque, the first of the two qiblahs and the journey of our Prophet Muhammad and his ascension, the second of the two mosques, and the third of the Two Holy Mosques? Do they watch?? Do they hear??


It is true that Palestine, all of Palestine, is the homeland of the Palestinians, who have no homeland other than their country and their homeland: Palestine, but its Islamic and Christian sanctities are the property, title, reference, and center of religious ideological and moral interest, for Muslims as well as for Christians. Do Muslims and Christians see, hear, and respond to the calls of the women of Palestine and their sacrifices in Confronting the systematic, aggressive, and ferocious attacks and desecration by foreign settlers on the sanctities of Muslims and Christians??


The women of Palestine, as well as its men, its girls, as well as its youth, are facing the consequences of their defense of the holiest sanctities of Muslims and Christians. Will the silence of the Islamic and Christian capitals remain static, unmoving, equivalent to the Zionist Hebrew-Israeli-Jewish racist attacks and attacks on the sanctities of Muslims and Christians??


The women of Palestine are paying the price not only through their husbands, children, grandchildren, and their sacrifices, but through their direct participation. They face the oppression of the colony’s army and its security services, and chant: God is Great. Perhaps their chant reaches the capitals. Perhaps they will move, offering solidarity action to those who work to protect Islamic and Christian sanctities. From assault, touching, and intentional harm by colony tools.


In the sanctuaries of Al-Aqsa Mosque, they are subjected to brutality, oppression, beatings, arrest, deportation, and financial fines, in open, public scenes that are shameful. They are vivid images. How long will the Arab, Islamic, and Christian silence remain? And if some have the courage, it is limited to statements of denunciation, with no practical benefit, as it is reckless. The Israeli government for these statements, in exchange for continuing the shameful normalization, towards an extremist Israeli government that surpasses the racist practices of South Africa, and the shame of the colonial countries Britain, France, Italy and Spain in Asia, Africa and Latin America before their defeat and defeat in front of the peoples that were liberated and gained independence due to their struggle and sacrifices.


The people of Palestine are generous in sacrificing and defending their land in order to restore it completely and undiminished, and generous for Al-Aqsa and the rest of its sanctities, but do not Muslims and Christians respond to the sacrifices and bravery of the Palestinians and do their duty of solidarity for them and with them??

Ben Gvir, the Israeli Minister of Security and Police, wrote a letter to members of the Knesset in which he said: “I intend to continue advancing towards the Temple Mount, and I will sincerely continue to work on that. I support an immediate cabinet session and a session on opening the Temple Mount to Jews seven days a week, with the possibility of regular prayers.” And the like,” Ben Gvir ended the letter with the hope that “the religious Zionist and Likud ministers in the Cabinet will support these measures, even though they themselves oppose visits to the Temple Mount.”

Nir Hasson wrote in Haaretz on October 3, 2023: “In Bab al-Sahira, dozens of Jews were recently documented spitting on Muslims and churches, and in Bab al-Silsilah, an Israeli border guard policewoman was documented pushing two Palestinian women.”


The scene is crystal clear and requires awaited Islamic and Christian action.
