Al Aqsa Is Calling Us!

Al-Aqsa is a Holy Mosque in Jerusalem, situated in the Al-Haram Ash-Sharif. This mosque is the 3rd holiest site in Islam. This is where the Prophet SAW ascended to Heaven. Verse no.1, chapter 17 of the Holy Quran highlights the blessings that have been brought on the areas surrounding Masjid Al- Aqsa. Before the Qibla, the direction in which Muslims pray was established towards the Kaaba; the Muslims faced Al-Aqsa for their Qibla. One prayer in this mosque also equals 500 prayers. This area is clearly a place of great divine importance and, hence, a unifying point for Muslims all around the world. It is one of the reasons that Muslims have a strong affinity for Palestine, not only because of the atrocities committed against the Palestinians, but also because their beloved Holy Mosque also stands there.

Why Do Zionists Want Al-Quds?

Al Aqsa Intifada

The Al-Aqsa Intifada, which lasted from September 2000 to February 2005, was a Palestinian uprising driven by deep frustrations with Zionist colonization and failed ‘peace’ talks.

Over the course of 4 years, more than 4,464 Palestinians were murdered, including 1,262 children, 274 women, and 32 medical personnel. Additionally, over 9,800 Palestinians were taken as hostages. The uprising left 47,440 people injured, 10,000 of whom were children.

In terms of property destruction, over 5,000 homes were demolished, and 6,500 more were damaged beyond repair. This intifada symbolized the Palestinian struggle against occupation and injustice.
