During prayers, Imam-e-Kaaba’s eyes welled up with tears, reflecting the deep anguish he felt for the Palestinian population enduring the harsh realities of conflict. He prayed that the sacrifices made by the Palestinian people in their pursuit of freedom and peace be recognized and rewarded.
The intensity of the moment was palpable, causing the Imam-e-Kaaba to pause momentarily in his supplication as his voice choked with emotion for the people of Palestine. The congregation, moved by his sincerity and empathy, joined him in these heartfelt prayers for the well-being and freedom of the people of Palestine.
Israeli Violence in Palestine
The emotional prayer for Palestine comes at a critical time when the region is grappling with escalated Israeli violence. Israel has urged residents of Gaza to evacuate southward, as it prepared for a massive ground invasion. Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have martyred large number of Palestinians, deepening the humanitarian crisis in the area.
