Mufti of Palestine bans worship of Emirati people in Al-Aqsa Mosque

August 17, 2020

The Mufti of Jerusalem and Palestine, Sheikh Mohammed Hussein, announced on Monday that he has forbidden the Emirati people from praying in Al-Aqsa Mosque.

The Mufti of Jerusalem and Palestine announced that the decision was made based on a 2012 fatwa that was issued against anyone who normalizes relations with Israel and reconciles with this country.

He clarified that the 2012 fatwa for the pilgrimage to Al-Quds and Al-Aqsa Mosque announced certain conditions, among which was not normalization.

“Since the agreement between the UAE and Israel includes normalization, therefore, pilgrimage to Quds is not permissible and is forbidden (Haram) for Emirati people,” Sheikh Mohammad Hussein said.

Earlier, the UAE had said in a statement on a normalization agreement with Israel that under this peace plan, all Muslims could go to Al-Aqsa Mosque and pray there, and that other holy sites in Jerusalem should be open to worshipers of all religions.

Islamic Scholar Rejects Palestinian Mufti's Fatwa Banning Emiratis From Praying In Al Quds

CAIRO

A grand scholar at Al Azhar Al Sharif, Egypt's renowned Islamic institution, has rejected a fatwa by Al Quds Mufti where he forbids the Emirati people from praying in Al-Aqsa Mosque following the UAE-Israeli peace accord.

"As a specialist in Islamic Fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) I can't find any religious justification for declaring as haram (forbidden) the worship of any Muslim people in any mosque all over the world based on a political stance taken by these people's leadership. I reject any religious fatwa that is not based on Shari'a - compliant rules," Dr Abbas Shuman, a member of Al Azhar's Committee of Senior Scholars.

"I'm not here defending the UAE's decision, nor interfering in its political stand which is solely determined by its leaders. I'm only dismissing that fatwa as biased as it has no legal sanction and cannot be enforced. Turkey has been maintaining normal relations with Israel since 1949 and was the first Islamic nation to recognise Israel.

Turkey and Israel enjoy even economic and defence cooperation which far exceeds normalisation of relations; and nonetheless, we have not heard - and we don't want to hear- any Palestinian fatwa banning Turks from praying in Al Aqsa. Neither have we heard any Palestinian fatwa banning Qataris, from praying in Al Aqsa, and likewise we don't want to hear, though Qatar enjoys commercial relations with Israel," Shuman explained.

"This Fatwa, in addition, contradicts with a call by Palestinian leaders for issuing a religious fatwa, urging Muslims all over the world to visit Al Aqsa and pray there."

"To the best of my knowledge, our Islamic history has not witnessed any fatwa by the righteous forefathers and their descendants banning any Muslim from praying in any mosque around the world," he concluded.

Wow.

 

[hussain0216]

Rightly so

Emirates have joined with the Jews to declare war upon the people of Palestine, upon Al Aqda and upon all Muslims

Why should they be allowed to desecrate muslim holy places with their polluted presence and I'm talking about both Israelis and Emiratei

I hope that this Allah blesses this man for his patience , for he has not committed any crime he is just being disrespected for some act done by others.

Very unfortunate

I hope that Allah grants us wisdom to not treat each other with such actions and helps remove differences between people

That man was giving a virtual BJ on behalf of Israeli's in his video blogging channel before this visit, so he ended up getting a dogs welcome.

This is Haram. A mosque belongs to Allah, not me, you, sheikhs, or muftis

 

[khansaheeb]

Now they have divided Sunnis from within.

 

[Shehr Abbasi]

And this ban does not effect any Emirati people!

 

[Indus Pakistan]

declare war upon the people of Palestine

And the Palestinians have declared war upon the Kashmiris. So fcuk them. I hope the Jew ar,y does what Hindu army is doing in Kashmir.

I agree.

I'm incensed, disappointed and repulsed by this Hindu, Jewish and even BLA terrorist supporting regime in the UAE but whatever disagreement we may or may not have with a nation it shouldn't affect the ability of Muslims to give prayers in a mosque.

Furthermore, the UAE isn't a representative Islamic democracy.

The King and Crown prince's decisions aren't those of the people of the country who are held hostage by these despotic madmen and seek liberation.

And the Palestinians have declared war upon the Kashmiris. So fcuk them. I hope the Jew ar,y does what Hindu army is doing in Kashmir.

Could you elaborate?

The only ones I've known who have been apprehensive about supporting Pakistan and Kashmir are the PNA puppets of the UAE and Saudi Arabia whereas Hamas has supported Pakistan's fight for liberation of our lands and people.
