Palestinian factions: The decision to perform the so-called "silent prayers" in Al-Aqsa is an aggression on our sanctities
On Friday, the Central Occupation Court in occupied Al-Quds annulled a previous decision of the so-called “Israeli Magistrate’s Court” to allow “silent prayers” for Jews in the courtyards of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, according to Israeli media.
The Israeli Kan channel stated that "the Israeli police filed an appeal against the decision of the Magistrate's Court that prevented the deportation of a settler who performed a silent prayer at Al-Aqsa Mosque."
The so-called Israeli "Magistrate's Court" had issued a decision on the sixth of this month, granting settlers the right to perform "silent prayers" in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque.
The decision included an order for the Israeli police to cancel an expulsion warrant issued against the extremist settler, Aryeh Lippo, from the mosque, stating that "the presence of Jewish worshipers on the Temple Mount cannot be criminalized as long as their prayers are silent."
Furthermore, the Israeli newspaper, Haaretz, reported that the District Court in Al-Quds, today, Friday, altered the decision of the Magistrate’s Court in the city into a decision that allows Jews to conduct silent prayers in Al-Aqsa Mosque, contrary to police instructions.
Calls were made for holding gatherings at Al-Aqsa Mosque on Friday after a decision was issued allowing settlers to perform silent Talmudic rituals during their storming of the Mosque.
Islamic authorities condemn the occupation court's decision
Islamic authorities in Al-Quds and the Resistance factions called for holding gatherings in Al-Aqsa Mosque and said that the occupation's decision is tantamount to dangerous aggression.
This comes after an Israeli occupation court decided to allow settlers to perform "limited prayers", as it described it, in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque.
The so-called "Magistrate's Court" in occupied Al-Quds ordered the occupation forces to drop the deportation warrant issued against the extremist Rabbi Aryeh Lippo to prevent him from visiting Al-Aqsa, considering his daily incursions into the Mosque area as very important.
The Palestinian factions considered "the occupation's decision to establish the so-called silent prayers in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque... an aggression against our Islamic sanctities."
