Why are Muslims upset about Al-Aqsa being attacked?
Why should Muslim influencers, Muslim leaders & Muslims in positions of power speak up?
Let me try and explain in the best way I can:
Why should Muslim influencers, Muslim leaders & Muslims in positions of power speak up?
Let me try and explain in the best way I can:
1. Imagine if the Holy Ka'ba was attacked? Well, Masjid Al-Aqsa is the third most Holiest place for Muslims (after the Ka'ba and Madinah).
Al-Aqsa is the ONLY Masjid that Allah mentioned in the Holy Qur'an when Allah refers to it in Surah Al-Isra [Chapter 17, Verse 1]
Al-Aqsa is the ONLY Masjid that Allah mentioned in the Holy Qur'an when Allah refers to it in Surah Al-Isra [Chapter 17, Verse 1]
“Exalted is He who took His Servant by night from al-Masjid al-Haram to al-Masjid al-Aqsa, whose surroundings We have blessed, to show him of Our signs. Indeed, He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing.” (Qur’an, Surah Al-Isra 17:1).
What does that verse mean?
2. Allah speaks of how Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him) ascended to heaven with Angel Jibreel (Angel Gabriel) during "Al-Isra" ("The Night Journey")
A beautiful story in our Prophet Muhammad's (pbuh) life

3. Masjid Al-Aqsa was the ONLY place and THE Masjid where Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) lead prayer with all the previous Prophet's (pbuh) behind him.
Imagine that? Prophet Adam, Nuh (Noah), Ibrahim (Abraham), Ismail (Ishmael), Yaqub (Jacob), Yusuf (Joseph),Musa (Moses) & the rest!

4. Many of our Sahaba (companions of Prophet Muhammad) are buried in the "Bab ur Rahmah cemetery" in the Al-Aqsa sanctuary.
Ubadah bin Samit and Shaddad bin Aus (peace be upon them) to name two.

5. Our Holy Masjid & grounds that hold EXTREMELY religious value are being attacked. Palestinians are being brave by gathering & protecting Al-Aqsa FOR THE REST OF THE MUSLIM UMMAH with their lives. These are your family. Your brethren.
So, do you still want to remain silent?
