Sheikh "Youssef Juma Salameh" emphasized that Al-Aqsa Mosque is an Islamic mosque and non-Muslims have no right regarding it, and the responsibility of defending and protecting Al-Aqsa Mosque is not limited to the Palestinian people and all Muslims are responsible.
The Friday Prayer Leader of Holy Al-Aqsa Mosque has stated that the Zionists continue to occupy the Palestinian land and noted that Arabs and Muslims have the duty to expose the crimes of the Zionist regime to the public opinion of the world and international assemblies.
The former minister of endowments and religious affairs of Palestine said that the world has closed its eyes to the attacks of the Zionists on the Al-Aqsa Mosque and stressed that the Palestinian people are steadfast in defending their rights and the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
The Organization of Islamic Cooperation named the 21st of August every year as the International Day of Mosques. On this day, the Zionists set fire to Al-Aqsa Mosque in the occupied city of Quds.
On August 21, 1969, the Al-Aqsa Mosque was set on fire by Dennis Michael Rohan, a radical Zionist, and this action has been part of the policies of the Zionist regime since 1948 to destroy Islamic culture, religion and civilization in the occupied Al-Quds.
The burning of Al-Aqsa Mosque angered Muslims and this action was condemned by various Islamic countries. By issuing Resolution 271 in 1969, the UN Security Council condemned the Zionist regime for setting fire to Al-Aqsa Mosque.
53 Years have passed since the burning of Al-Aqsa Mosque in Occupied Al-Quds, the first Qibla of Muslims is still facing various conspiracies of the Zionist regime.
The temporal and spatial division of Al-Aqsa Mosque, the daily raids of the Zionists and rabbis on the courtyard of Al-Aqsa Mosque, the imprisonment of Palestinians and the displacement of Palestinians from their homeland, especially the occupation of Al-Quds, are Zionist plans for the Judaization of Al-Quds Sharif and Al-Aqsa Mosque.
With the support of the United States, some European countries and Arab compromisers, the Zionist regime has intensified its attacks on Al-Aqsa Mosque and other Palestinian areas, including Gaza.
The continuance of the Zionist regime's crimes shows that the international community has not taken any effective action to support the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Palestinian people, and the Palestinian people, knowing this, stand firm in defending their rights and the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
