Conclusion of the “Al-Aqsa Calls for Help” Campaign in
\nIstanbul: A Unified Stand and the Nation\u2019s Voice Against the Judaization of
\nJerusalem<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The
\ncentral event of the “Al-Aqsa Calls for Help” campaign concluded in
\nIstanbul, with wide participation from representatives of institutions,
\norganizations, and prominent figures from the Arab and Islamic worlds, in a
\nscene that reflected growing engagement and mobilization in support of Al-Aqsa
\nMosque.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

From Engagement to Action<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

The
\nevent featured an intensive discussion of the current situation in Jerusalem
\nand at Al-Aqsa Mosque, with participants emphasizing the critical nature of the
\npresent phase and the urgent need to move from reactive engagement to
\norganized, impactful action.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

In a
\nspeech representing the nation, Dr. Jamal Abdul Sattar, Assistant
\nSecretary-General of the International Union of Muslim Scholars, highlighted
\nthe latent potential of the Ummah, stating that “the nation is full of
\nstrength and capable of sacrifice, but it seeks a genuine banner to unite it
\nand a clear path to bring it together.” He called for overcoming division
\nand building a unified course toward meaningful action.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

Dr.
\nMarwan Abu Ras, Chair of the Jerusalem and Palestine Committee at the
\nInternational Union of Muslim Scholars, addressed developments in Palestine,
\nemphasizing that “what Al-Aqsa Mosque is experiencing is a major crime
\nthat requires a response beyond mere condemnations,” stressing that
\nreclaiming rights necessitates real action that restores the Ummah\u2019s strength
\nand dignity.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

Former
\nPresident of Mardin Artuklu University, Professor Ahmed Agraja, noted that
\n“the suffering of Al-Aqsa and Gaza is the result of long-term
\naccumulations of decline and dependency, amid the absence of a genuine stance
\nby regional regimes toward the Ummah\u2019s holy sites.”<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

Mr.
\nMajed Abu Quteish stressed that the events in Jerusalem represent “a
\ncomprehensive project targeting identity and sovereignty,” asserting that
\nJerusalem is a cause for the entire nation, and that silence only emboldens the
\noccupiers.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

The Plight of Prisoners and Jerusalem<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Dr.
\nAbdullah Marouf, Director of the Jerusalem Studies Center at 29 May University,
\npointed out that “the closure of the mosque is not the problem in itself,
\nbut rather a reflection of attempts to impose full control over its
\nidentity,” warning that reopening it under the occupiers\u2019 conditions
\n“is not a solution, but the establishment of a new reality.”<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

Dr.
\nHatem Abdul Azim, a member of the Board of Trustees of the International Union
\nof Muslim Scholars, emphasized the religious and historical significance of
\nAl-Aqsa Mosque, noting that keeping the cause alive depends on the nation\u2019s
\nconfidence in its promise and its capacity to rise anew.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

Engineer
\nMahmoud Shreiteh highlighted the suffering of prisoners in the occupation\u2019s
\njails, pointing out that cells have become spaces for isolation and
\ndeprivation, and that denying prisoners visits and medical care makes their
\nplight “a severe test of the Ummah\u2019s conscience,” amid international
\nsilence that exacerbates their suffering.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

Final Statement<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

The
\nevent concluded with a final statement emphasizing that “Jerusalem today
\nis in a deep and comprehensive crisis,” noting that the conflict remains
\nwithin “conflict management,” and that the steadfastness of the
\nPalestinian people, particularly the residents of Jerusalem, represents the
\nfirst line of defense in preserving the city\u2019s identity.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

The
\nstatement affirmed that the issue of Al-Aqsa Mosque “is not only a
\nPalestinian matter, but a cause for the entire Ummah,” calling on Arab and
\nIslamic governments to intensify political and legal efforts to protect the
\nholy sites.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

The
\nevent concluded by underlining the importance of continuing activism and
\nunifying efforts, contributing to the protection of Al-Aqsa Mosque and
\nstrengthening its presence in public consciousness, at a critical moment that
\nrequires moving from discourse to action.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

This
\nevent is part of the international campaign “Al-Aqsa Calls for Help,”
\nwhich continues until April 9, through a series of activities and mobilization
\naimed at keeping the issue of Al-Aqsa Mosque alive in the nation\u2019s awareness
