Muslims should visit Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa in order to empower the steadfast and stalwart Jerusalemites who struggle to remain in the Holy City; so that they may know that respon- sibility for the mosque does not rest with them alone, but with the world's 1.7 billion Muslims. Jerusalemites, the 1948 Arabs and the Jerusalem Awqaf Administration cannot confront the campaign to Judaize the Holy City on their own. There are over 20 tunnels and excavations that threaten to penetrate the walls of Al-Haram Al-Sharif. Some have been converted into synagogues with Talmudic names that imply to the visitor that they are part of the so-called Jewish temple. Since the year 2000, over 50,000 settlers and 2 million non- Muslim tourists have entered Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa without the Awqaf's permission. Since 1967, more than 14,000 Palestinians have been driven out of Jerusalem and over 3,300 homes have been razed. The Separation Wall has removed over 70,000 homes from the perimeters of the Holy City of Jerusalem. The daily Jewish presence and prayer in Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa is the first step in the plan to divide Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa be- tween Muslims and Jews; exactly as has been done in Hebron in the Ibrahimi Mosque (referred to by Israelis as Cave of the Patriarchs). Since 1967, most visitors to Jerusalem are non-Muslims who only to listen to the Jewish narrative regarding Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa. How do we interpret the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) visit- ing both Jerusalem (Al-Israa' wal Miraj) and Mecca (Treaty of Hudaybiyah) before both cities witnessed Muslim conquests? The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: Whosoever wants to behold a piece of Paradise, let him behold Bayt Al-Maqdis. The Prophet (pbuh) also said: Whosoever performs Ihram for Hajj or Umrah from Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa and then proceeds to Al-Masjid Al- Haram, their past and future sins will be forgiven, or they will be entered into Paradise. Visiting Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa never stopped, even when Je- rusalem was under the Crusaders. No scholars, including ibn Taymiyyah and Al-Ghazali, ever described these visits as ‘nor- malization’ with, or surrender to, Crusader rule. Warding off harm: Those who forbid visiting Jerusalem base it on the jurisprudential principle that “warding off harm takes precedence over causing benefit”. They claim that the harm in this instance is that visiting Jerusalem is normalization with the occupation authority. Normalization is a political term that means “to establish ‘normal’ relations with the other”. It must be asked: “Is normalization the true purpose and result of visit- ing Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa?” Not visiting Jerusalem serves those who seek to eradicate the Holy City's Islamic identity and history and those who aim to isolate the Jerusalemites. Visiting Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa is a religious duty for those who are able to visit it, particularly for Muslim scholars and intellectuals. Is visiting someone who is jailed normalization with the jailor? Imagine: a band of usurpers comes and throws your mother in jail and visiting her can only be done through them, the aggressors; does this mean that visiting your his is a very important message that highlights many of the practical, political and religious reasons that Muslims have to visit Al-Aqsa Mosque. The author here refers to Muslims from all parts of the world, not just Muslims in Palestine..
