Why Al-Aqsa, Why Jerusalem?
"- This is not any ordinary land. This is a blessed sanctified land, that Allah Himself sanctified.
- This is the land that Allah mentioned in the Quran.
- This is the land on which the second Masjid on Earth was built.
- This is the Masjid in which one Prayer is equal to 250 Prayers.
- This is the land from which the Messenger ﷺ was taken up to the Heavens to meet Allah.
- This is the land on which the Messenger ﷺ lead ALL the Prophets in Prayer.
- This is the land we faced in Prayer for 16 months before turning towards the Kaabah.
- This is the land on which the Angels of Allah have spread their wings over until today.
- This is the land on which the Prophet ﷺ took the cup of milk, as a result, his Ummah were guided to the right path. Otherwise, had he taken the cup of wine, the entire Ummah would have gone astray.
- This is the land on which Isa In Maryam عليه السلام will kill the biggest Fitnah on Earth, the Dajaal.
- This is the land on which (the Prophet ﷺ said) the best of the inhabitants of Earth will reside where Prophet Ibrahim migrated (I.e. Jerūs@lem).
- This is the land on which the Prophet Musa عليه السلام requested Allah to let him die close to it, so much so that he would be just a distance of a stone's throw away from it.
We seek closeness to Allah by loving this land.
Betrayal of this land is a betrayal of Allah and His Messenger ﷺ, and it's forbidden for a believer to betray Allah and His Messenger.
So now inform me, how exactly does the enemy of Allah assume that we will give up on this land???
When the believers say they will die protecting this land, they mean it for all the above reasons."
O Allah! We need Your help desperately. Have mercy on the people of Palestine. Show the world the lies and atrocities that have been leveled against them. Only You know the truth. You are the Owner of miracles. Grant them victory in these dire moments. Aameen.
