The New Temple Mount Fatwa

There's a new Fatwa issued, from Jordan.

The Council of Fatwa and Research and Islamic Studies in Jordan issued a new fatwa that is is legitimate for Muslims in this age, peoples and leaders , governments and owners of thought and opinion "to defend Al-Aqsa Mosque, which is surrounded by threats and are subjected to abuses."

It claims that "the custody of the Al-Aqsa Mosque is the right of Muslims representatives of the leadership of Jordan, which derived its control over the holy sites by virtue of historical heritage and the Convention on guardianship signed with the Palestinian Authority and not with the occupation authorities, and this sacred mandate may not be compromised or waived."

From the text (in Google Translate):-


Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Prophet Muhammad, and his family and companions, and after;

The Council of Fatwa and Research and Islamic Studies at its third meeting held on Monday 17th of April, 1435 AH, corresponding to 2014, considered the issue of Al-Aqsa Mosque, and being appriosed to the dangers, issued the following statement:

God made the Al-Aqsa Mosque a special place in the hearts of Muslims which stems from the core of their faith.  It is the first Qiblah and the second two mosques Mosques and the third holiest site, the place of the ascension of the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him...

We in the House of Fatwa in this Muslim Arab country, led by a Hashemite, has consistently built Al-Aqsa and defended it...to emphasize the rejectioin of the Zionist enemy's oppression that provokes the feelings of Muslims through its escalatory efforts to divide the Al-Aqsa Mosque and threaten to withdraw the Hashemite guardianship from it...

We salute the steadfastness of our brothers in the holy land...and call on God to help them...

And it is legitimate for Muslims in this age, peoples and leaders, governments and owners of thought and opinion to defend Al-Aqsa Mosque, which is surrounded by threats and subjected to abuses. We emphasize that the custody of the Al-Aqsa Mosque is the right of Muslims representatives of the leadership of Jordan, which derived its control over the holy sites by virtue of historical heritage and the Convention on guardianship signed with the Palestinian Authority and not with the occupation authorities, which does not recognize any action in this matter , and may not be compromised in this state on the sacred or waiver them.

We ask God Almighty to achieve our hopes, and help us to victory , pride and nail to our enemies , and return the holy places, and that God loved one. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds.

Those who have spent time living/working in SE Asia, know that it takes some pretty severe provocations to get Buddhists riled up. But jihadis are capable of doing it....
