PA's Grand Mufti issues fatwa banning Muslims from praying at al-Aqsa
[Jpost] “It is forbidden for a Moslem to arrive in a plane of the United Arab Emirates to Ben Gurion Airport, in order to come and pray at the al-Aqsa Mosque."

The Paleostinian Authority's Grand Mufti has issued a fatwa banning Moslems from praying at the al-Aqsa Mosque within the framework of the UAE-Israel peace deal.

Moslems from outside Israel and the Paleostinian territories are now able to visit the Mosque to pray, under the conditions of the recent deal normalizing relations between Israel and the UAE. However,
it's easy to be generous with someone else's money...
the Paleostinian Authority considers the deal a betrayal of its cause, and religious leaders have declared that any Moslem visiting the site, considered the third holiest in Islam, are traitors.

"We absolutely won’t accept the [UAE’s] treason. One grain of sand from the soil of pure Paleostine and from the soil of the al-Aqsa Mosque is more precious than our blood and our lives," Supreme Sharia Judge Mahmoud al-Habbash said on official PA TV on Saturday, according to a translation by Paleostinian Media Watch.

He continued: "Whoever wants to come visit the al-Aqsa Mosque through the gate of Paleostine: Welcome, and we will rejoice over him. But whoever wants to come through the Israeli gate is unwanted, and he will find nothing but the shoes of the people of Jerusalem and the spit of the people of Jerusalem in his face."

Sheikh Muhammad Hussein, the Grand Mufti went further. Appearing on Paleostine This Morning, which is broadcast on official Paleostinian Authority TV, he told viewers: "It is forbidden for a Moslem to arrive in a plane of the United Arab Emirates or not of the United Arab Emirates to the Lod Airport [in Israel], which today they call Ben Gurion Airport, in order to come and pray at the al-Aqsa Mosque. This is false marketing in terms of religious law, legally false, religiously offensive."

The following day, The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire...
's Anadolu news agency reported: "Sheikh Muhammad Hussein issued a fatwa (i.e., religious ruling) determining that praying at the al-Aqsa Mosque in the framework of the normalization agreement between Israel and the UAE is ’forbidden. Hussein said that... ’Praying at the al-Aqsa Mosque is open to all those who arrive through the legal Paleostinian gate, and not to those who carry out normalization.’"

The leaders have made it clear that they consider Moslems praying at the mosque under the agreement to have betrayed not only the Paleostinian cause, but the Prophet Mohammed himself.
More blood curdling mustache cursing snipped, leaving us with the dénouement:
Paleostinian Media Watch highlighted in a statement that this may be understood as a call to violence against Israel and the UAE, given al-Habbash's previous teaching that the Koran commands that enemies must be killed. Anyone who "comes to attack me... my home... my land... I am commanded to fight him... I am allowed to kill him," he said.

#2 You say, "..........the mosque is known as Al-aqsa mosque which we all 'know' is in Jerusalem next to the dome of the rock................." and by quoting Yusuf Ali, Pickthall and Shakir's translation into English of Surah 17:001, think you have put "the farthest mosque" in Jerusalem.

The record of history shows that Muhammad died in 632 AD, that Muslim jihadists captured Jerusalem from the Byzantines in 638 AD, that Amir Abd-ul-Malik built the Dome of the Rock between 688 and 691 AD, and the Ummayads built Masjid al-Aqsa in 715 AD.

When Surah 17:001 was 'sent-down' ~621 AD, Palestine contained not a single mosque, was captured 17 years later in 638 AD, 6 years after Muhammad's death, the Dome of the Rock was built 56-59 years after Muhammad's death, 67-70 years after 17:001 was 'sent-down', and Masjid al- Aqsa was built 83 years after Muhammad's death, 94 years after 17:001 was 'sent-down.'

Islam's mythical and militant claim on Jerusalem is entirely without historical support or foundation. Islam comes way too late in history to lay claim to Jerusalem "The Holy City," it is on the wrong side of history, and I ask again Ali, In light of the above dates:-

What Temple did Muhammad visit, enter and pray at, before ascending to heaven?

Seeing that the Qur'an mentions a journey of Muhammad's to a mosque that did not exist during his lifetime, how can Surah 17:001 possibly have it, and Muhammad, In Jerusalem???


Now bulldoze it.
