Scores of Palestinians mark Prophet’s Mawlid at Aqsa Mosque

According to local sources, several buses carrying Palestinian citizens from 1948 occupied Palestine (Israel) arrived in the morning in Jerusalem to mark the religious occasion and to support the Jerusalemites’ steadfastness in the face of Israeli violations.

Meanwhile, Palestinian social media activists continued to urge their compatriots to march en masse to the Aqsa Mosque to mark the Prophet’s Mawlid.

The participation of Palestinian citizens from across the occupied territories in commemoration of the Prophet’s Mawlid is important to protect the Aqsa Mosque against Judaization and support the Jerusalemites’ steadfastness in general and the city’s markets and merchants in particular.

During this occasion, Muslims stay at the Aqsa Mosque for long hours, reading the holy Qur’an, preforming prayers, listening to sermons and lectures, and participating in different religious gatherings held to commemorate the Prophet’s Mawlid.

In a related context, the Israeli occupation police have imposed today movement and entry restrictions on Muslim worshipers at Jerusalem’s checkpoints, as well as at the Aqsa Mosque’s entrances and gates.
