Jakarta, MINA – Imaam Yakhsyallah Mansur, the Advisor of Aqsa Working Group (AWG), emphasized that unity remains the most fundamental element in achieving victory in any struggle, particularly in the ongoing struggle for Palestine liberation.
“Both the Qur’an and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasize that unity is essential for achieving victory,” said Imam Yakhsyallah during his speech at the seminar and exhibition “Semangat Gaza untuk Bela Masjid Al-Aqsa” (“The Spirit of Gaza to Defend Al-Aqsa Mosque”) held at Hans Bague Jassin Hall, Ali Sadikin Building, Taman Ismail Marzuki, Central Jakarta on Thursday.
He stressed that unity brings forth compassion and divine mercy that sustain and strengthen resistance efforts. Imam Yakhsyallah also invited Muslims to engage in self-reflection regarding the prolonged occupation of Al-Aqsa Mosque and the ongoing oppression in Palestine.
“Even Imam Al-Ghazali engaged in deep introspection when he composed Ihya Ulum al-Din, a profound work born from contemplation near Masjid Al-Aqsa,” he added.
