Al-Azhar Al-Sharif Islamic Research Academy (AIRA) denounces the assault carried out by Special Forces of the Israeli occupation army against Al-Aqsa mosque compound. The Israeli forces prevented and attacked Muslim worshipers at the holy mosque without any respect to the sacredness of the site.
AIRA stresses that shooting Muslim worshipers within the mosque contradicts all the teachings of all heavenly religions that recommend maintaining peace and coexistence. This dangerous escalation against Al-Aqsa Mosque is unacceptable and provocative to Muslims around the world.
AIRA pointed out that this dangerous escalation is a kind of extremism that only stirs hatred and anger; demanding the International community to stop the Israeli violations.
