A prominent mosque in Cairo, which is a seat of Sunni learning, has expressed its solidarity with Palestinians in the wake of Hamas’s attack.
The Al-Azhar al-Sharif mosque houses the Sunni world’s foremost seat of religious learning. A statement by the mosque said it “stands fast with full support to the free people of Palestine, who have come to revive our self-confidence, lifeline, and a long-lost sense of aliveness”.
It also criticised the global approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, saying the international community “adopts nothing but double standards when it comes to the Palestinian cause”.
