Description
This is a meticulously researched and chronicled narrative on al-Aqşā. Jerusalem is where Allah and humanity connect - in the covenant that binds the Muslim Ummah to Allah. Highly recommended read!
- Rafique Gangat - Former South African ambassador to the Palestinian Territories.
Masjid al-Aqşā: A Journey Through Time by Ebrahim Moosa is a welcome addition to the literature on the Palestinian issue. It provides a historical landscape of Masjid Aqşā and the wider Palestinian issue. It traces the history of Masjid al-Aqşā through the lives of the prophets to the present time. The detail in the book and decolonial perspectives are a valuable contribution. It should be made part of the wider list
of essential reading on Masjid al-Aqşā."
- Dr Ismail Adam Patel - Chair of Friends of al-Aqşā (UK)
