Al-Sheikh Abou Arafa: Callers for Jihad in Syria Are Liars, Want its Destruction

Al-Sheikh Abou Arafa

Imam of al-Aqsa Mosque Salah Eddine Abou Arafa stressed that the fatwas and calls for jihad in Syria issued by some people who call themselves scholars are mere lies that aim to destroy Syria and satisfy its enemies.

In an interview with al-Mayadeen channel, Abou Arafa said “If they were honest, Palestine should be the first destination for their calls”.

He added that the jihad cannot be among people of the same religion, adding that the groups which came to Syria in the name of Islamic religion are too far from it.

He concluded by saying that the Islamic nation is one nation with one religion and one prophet, pointing out that those who work to divide it are not from this nation.

He prayed for peace and security to prevail Syria.
