Palestinian clerics Sheik Ibrahim Mahdhi and Sheik Isma'il Al-Radhwan both former preachers in Palestinian TV Friday sermons, discussed the current situation on PA TV. The following are excerpts:

Sheik Ibrahim Madhi We must learn the lessons from [Prophet Muhammad's nocturnal journey], especially as we are fighting this bitter war with the brethren of apes and pigs, the Jews, the sons of Zion.

Who will liberate the Al-Aqsa Mosque once again, my dears? Al-Aqsa will be liberated by the purified hands, the bowing foreheads, and the hearts that surrender to Allah. Al-Aqsa will be liberated in the path of the Prophet Muhammad, as he said: "The Jews will fight you and you will be imposed as rulers on them until the Jew hides behind stones or trees, and the stone or tree will say: Oh Muslim, servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him except for the Gharqad, which is a tree of the Jews."

Sheik Isma'il Al-Radhwan:It is as if Allah is telling the Muslims that the Jews - because they are corrupt, arrogant, and do not obey Allah, and because they breach agreements, and because their history is full of corruption and destruction – they are not worthy of leading humanity. Therefore, there is no choice but to pass it on to another leadership, that of Muhammad.

Allah tells us: Oh Muslims, prepare to become the deciding factor in the conflict with world Jewry. It is as if Allah is telling us that this blessed land will only be saved by "servants of Ours." Allah said, "Servants of Ours, mighty in war." Oh Muslims, prepare yourselves to become the deciding factor in the conflict with world Jewry. Allah also makes it clear that this land will be occupied, the Jews will defile it and behave arrogantly, but they are doomed to annihilation.
