The Union of Muslim Scholars in Lebanon is closely monitoring the dire situation in Gaza, Jerusalem, and the West Bank, where our steadfast populations endure savage aggression, systematic atrocities, and relentless violations against the sanctity of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque.
In response to this profound religious and humanitarian obligation, the Union issues the following statement:
- A Religious Imperative for Support: Mobilizing all legitimate forms of solidarity with the Palestinian people constitutes a sacred religious duty and a profound historical responsibility, resting squarely on the shoulders of Muslim leaders, scholars, and communities.
- Safeguarding Al-Aqsa and Jerusalem: We firmly reject any attempts to partition the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque either temporally or spatially, and we salute the unwavering resilience of the steadfast men and women defending the honor of the Ummah.
- A Call for Sustained Relief Mobilization: We urge mosque imams, alongside civil society and charitable organizations across Lebanon, to intensify humanitarian relief campaigns, dedicate earnest prayers, and cultivate greater awareness among younger generations regarding the just cause of Palestine.
