AMMAN — The
Waqf Council of Jerusalem has raised concerns
over the recent incidents involving the Al-Aqsa Mosque in the
occupied city of Jerusalem.

In a statement released on Tuesday, the council highlighted
the danger of targeting the
blessed mosque and its employees, according to
Al-Mamalaka TV.
Israeli occupation forces forcibly expelled all on-duty
workers, including guards, firefighters, and maintenance technicians from the
Al-Aqsa Mosque on Monday evening. Consequently, the mosque was transformed into
a military barracks, setting a dangerous precedent.
Following this action, the
Qibli Mosque was raided
arbitrarily, and men and women observing the first ten days of Dhu Al-Hijjah
were forcibly evicted, subjected to assault, humiliation, and several young men
were arrested.
The council strongly condemned the excessive use of force by
the
occupation forces against the Al-Aqsa Mosque, its worshipers, and the
Islamic Endowments and their employees.
These brutal acts contribute to a growing list of
occupation violations, fueling hatred, insecurity, and the risk of a religious war in the
region and beyond.
Emphasizing that the
Islamic Endowments and the Affairs of the Al-Aqsa Mosque hold sole responsibility for the mosque and its management,
including its entire 144-dunum area and its surroundings, the council declared
that the mosque is exclusively for Muslims.
Despite the unjust measures and policies targeting Al-Aqsa
and its administration, it emphasized that it will continue to be preserved as
a Muslim place of worship.
The council, alongside
Al-Aqsa Mosque workers, the people of
Jerusalem, and Muslims worldwide, reaffirmed their commitment as faithful guardians
of the blessed mosque. They remain dedicated to protecting and defending
Al-Aqsa, an Islamic sanctuary that refuses any form of partnership or division
under any circumstances.
