Sheikh Abdul-Adheem Salhab head of the Islamic Awqaf Council in Occupied Jerusalem has strongly denounced Jewish settler groups’ request to build the alleged temple mount in place of the Dome of the Rock prayer building at the Aqsa Mosque describing it as a reflection of “very dangerous intents against the Islamic holy site.”
In a press release Sheikh Salhab described such intents as “part of repeated Israeli attempts to violate the Islamic sanctity of the Aqsa Mosque and provoke the Muslim nation’s feelings.”
He warned that any action against the Aqsa Mosque and its structures would ignite an all-out religious war in the region.
The Awqaf official also underlined that “the Aqsa Mosque with its buildings courtyards walls and its 144-dunum land is a purely Islamic holy site and a red line that can never be divided or shared.”
