to the Al-Aqsa Mosque in tens of millions.” The sermon was posted on the

Following are excerpts:
Raed Salah: There are people who are oppressors in this land, and there are
people who are the worst oppressors in the land. The worst oppressors in the
land, in the eyes of Allah, are those who prevent His name from being
mentioned in His mosques, and who seek to destroy these mosques. These are
the worst oppressors in the eyes of Allah.
Since the Israeli occupation is using its weapons, mobilizing its soldiers,
and rallying its intelligence agencies, its horses, and its donkeys, in
order to prevent the name of Allah being mentioned in the Al-Aqsa Mosque,
and since it is striving to destroy the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the Israeli
occupation is the worst oppressor in the land in the eyes of Allah.

The Al-Aqsa Mosque calls us. It calls out to every Muslim man and woman in
the world. It calls out to every Arab man and woman in the world. It calls
out to every Palestinian man and woman in the world.
I am confident that if the circumstances of the Muslims were as they should
be, they would march to the Al-Aqsa Mosque in tens of millions, crossing all
borders and overcoming all obstacles, and they would not be stopped even by
nuclear bombs, until they arrived at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, liberated it, and
prayed in gratitude for Allah Almighty.
But the current oppressive circumstances restrain the will of the Muslims,
as well as the will of the Arabs, and even the will of some Palestinians.
Glorious Gaza is currently under siege, as is the West Bank. So it all
depends on our people [the Arab Israelis] – our men and women in blessed
Jerusalem, in the Galilee, in the Triangle, in the Negev, and in the coastal
cities of Acre, Haifa, Jaffa, Lod, and Ramla. We should shout from here,
from Nazareth, and from Sakhnin, Umm Al-Fahm, Kafr Qassem, and Rahat…
We – men, women and children – should shout: We respond to your call, oh
Al-Aqsa Mosque. We are coming to the place of the Prophet Muhammad’s
nocturnal journey.
[…]
Inshallah, Jerusalem will soon become the capital of the global Caliphate.
The Caliphate will spread justice throughout the land, after it was filled
with injustice by America, the Zionist enterprise, the Batiniyya,
reactionism, paganism, and the Crusaders.
