Israeli Occupation Government Contemplates Banning Muslim Call for Dawn Prayer in Occupied East Jerusalem

Masajeduna: Israeli contemplation of banning Athan in Jerusalem crime against Is

[ 04/12/2009 - 07:18 PM ]

GAZA, (PIC)--

The Masajeduna Network (MN) condemned the Israeli occupation government for contemplating the banning of the dawn Adhan (Muslim call for prayer) in the occupied city of East Jerusalem and called it one in series of continuing crimes against Islam and the Muslims.

In a statement on Thursday the MN warned the Israeli occupation government and extremist Jewish settlers against harming any mosque or holy place in the holy city.

The MN held the Israeli occupation government responsible for the consequences of any aggression by extremist Jewish settlers on holy places as a result of discussing such matters as the banning of the Muslim call for prayer and called on Muslims in Jerusalem to intensify their presence in mosques at dawn prayers and make sure that the prayers are called from the minarets of all mosques.

The MN called on Muslims around the world to support their brothers in Jerusalem and to make sure they perform their dawn prayers at mosques in solidarity with their brothers in Jerusalem.
