Ramadan and Resistance: 5 Ways to Keep Palestine in Our Hearts & Minds with Khalid El-Awaisi

Bait ul Maqdis – the sacred precinct in Palestine - is a blessed place in Islam – but today, we have downplayed maybe its centrality to what it means to a believer. From my last conversation with Dr Khalid El-Awaisi – where he controversially said that al Aqsa and these blessed lands have to be more clearly central to our faith and worldview – we want to explore how we practically manifest this nearness to Bait ul Maqdis and Palestine.

Dr Khalid El-Awaisi is from Hebron, Al Khalil, in Palestine. He is a lecturer in the pioneering field of Islamic Jerusalem Studies. He is an Associate Professor of Islamic History at the Social Sciences University of Ankara.

Dua mentioned by Dr El-Awaisi: اللَّهُمَّ ارْزُقْنَا صَلَاةً فِي الْـمَسْجِدِ الْأَقْصَى وهُوَ حُرٌّ عَزِيزٌ
