He warned that Israel’s continuous attacks on the Islamic and Christian sanctities in Jerusalem, in addition to the unilateral measures of settlement expansion and daily incursions into Palestinian towns and villages, risk further escalation that the international community must work to immediately stop.
He stressed that “the Al-Aqsa Mosque, with its entire area of 144 dunums, is a pure place of worship for Muslims, and that the Jerusalem Awqaf and Al-Aqsa Mosque Affairs Department affiliated with the Jordanian Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs is the legitimate authority with exclusive jurisdiction over all the affairs of Al-Aqsa Mosque, including deciding who can be there.”
Al-Majali called on Israel, the occupying power, to immediately stop all practices and violations in the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and all measures aimed at changing the existing historical and legal status quo at the holy site.
