HIBM Editorial by Dr. K. Daniel Fried: It is always encouraging to see others, especially those from Arab countries, who acknowledge the legitimate right for the Jewish people to be in their homeland “Israel”. More astounding is the fact that even the Koran validates the fact that Israel belongs to the Jews. One day soon, all nations will recognize this truth, when according to the Bible Israel will be the head of all nations. I know people don’t like hearing that, but it doesn’t change the truth;
Zec 8:23 “Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.” Deut 28:13 “And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:”
So the sooner the enemies of Israel figure this out, the better off there gonna be. Eventually all the nations armies will gather against Israel, and they will quickly learn that God Almighty will protect Israel from destruction, and their own destruction will result. Going against Jehovah’s wife is not a good idea. Jehovah is a Jealous God and He will not tolerate it – that is why the battle of all battles before the 1000 year reign of Christ the Messiah will occur;
Rev 16:14, 16 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. vas 16 “And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.”

Sheikh Ahmad Adwan: “Allah Gave the Land of Israel to the Jews”
A Jordanian Sheikh has recognized Jewish rights in the Holy Land, based on Islamic sources. Evidently, numerous classical Islamic sources recognize Israeli rights in the Holy Land and Jewish attachment to the Temple Mount.

“There is no such thing as ‘Palestine’ in the Koran. Your demand for the Land of Israel is a falsehood and it constitutes an attack on the Koran, on the Jews and their land. Therefore you won’t succeed, and Allah will fail you and humiliate you, because Allah is the one who will protect them (i.e. the Jews).”
The sheikh added harsh words in relations to human rights abuses within the Palestinian Authority: “The Palestinians are the killers of children, the elderly and women. They attack the Jews and then they use those (children, the elderly and women) as human shields and hide behind them, without mercy for their children as if they weren’t their own children, in order to tell the public opinion that the Jews intended to kill them.”
“This is exactly what I saw with my own two eyes in the 70’s, when they attacked the Jordanian army, which sheltered and protected them. Instead of thanking it (the Jordanian army), they brought their children forward to (face) the Jordanian army, in order to make the world believe that the army kills their children,” the Sheikh declared. “This is their habit and custom, their viciousness, their having hearts of stones towards their children, and their lying to public opinion, in order to get its support.”
Islamic Support for Israel Belonging to the Jewish People
According to Robert Spencer, writing in the Middle East Forum, Sheikh Ahmad Adwan is not alone in his views. He is backed up by classical Muslim sources. British-based imam Sheikh Muhammad Al-Hussaini stated, “You will find very clearly that the traditional commentators from the eighth and ninth century onwards have uniformly interpreted the Koran to say explicitly that Eretz Yisrael has been given by God to the Jewish people as a perpetual covenant. There is no Islamic counterclaim to the Land anywhere in the traditional corpus of commentary.”
Spencer cites that Hussaini bases his argument upon Qur’an 5:21 in which Moses declares: “O my people, enter the Holy Land which G-d has prescribed for you, and turn not back in your traces, to turn about losers.” He then refers to classical Qur’an commentator Muhammad ibn Jarir at-Tabari (838-923), who explains that this statement is “a narrative from God … concerning the saying of Moses … to his community from among the children of Israel and his order to them according to the order of God to him, ordering them to enter the holy land.”
Classical Muslim religious sources also recognize a Jewish right to Jerusalem and state that the Al Aqsa Mosque is located exactly where King Solomon’s Temple used to exist. David Barnett, writing for the Gloria Center: Global Research in International Affairs, stated that Abu Jafar Muhammad al-Tabari, who chronicled the seventh century Muslim conquest of Jerusalem, wrote that one day when Umar finished praying, he went to the place where “the Romans buried the Temple [bayt al-maqdis] at the time of the sons of Israel.” In addition, eleventh century historian Muhammad Ibn Ahmad al-Maqdisi and fourteenth century Iranian religious scholar Hamdallah al-Mustawfi acknowledged that the al-Aqsa Mosque was built on top of Solomon’s Temple.”
Also, another Sheikh said in 2010:

Zionist Imam: Koran Says Israel Belongs to Jews
Italian Imam Abdul Hadi Palachi, who has become known as the ‘Zionist Sheikh’ for his outspoken pro-Israel stance, says that the Koran clearly states that the Land of Israel belongs to the Jewish people and that the Temple Mount was the site of the Jewish Temple. “Mohammed himself said that,” added Palachi.
He made the comments at a special conference initiated by National Union MK Michael Ben-Ari and attended by Deputy Minister Ayub Kara, former Canadian Justice Minister Irwin Cotler, Shas MK Nissim Zeev and Arab MK Ibrahim Hijazi.
