The transfer of the US Embassy to Jerusalem and the recognition of the Holy City as the capital of Israel is a blatant challenge and provocation to the feelings of Palestinians, Arabs and Muslims," Grant Mufti, Sheikh Abdullatif Derian, said in a statement this Wednesday.
“This step would turn the region into a flame of conflicts that will inevitably lead to disastrous consequences and would adversely affect the region and the international community. This will have serious repercussions on the Arab and Islamic region,” he said. "The recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel is unacceptable and represents a step towards the elimination of the Palestinian cause, which will not be allowed by Arabs and Muslims,” the Mufti said, calling to confront the Israeli enemy in various ways.
“Confrontation is a legitimate right aiming to defend the occupied land of Palestine," he said, calling on the leaders of Arab and Islamic countries to take urgent measures to counter this step in order to preserve the Arab identity of Al-Quds Al-Sharif
