JAKARTA - The Grand Imam of the Grand Mosques of Haram and Nabawi, Sheikh Abdul Rahman Al-Sudais, urged Muslims to unite in supporting the Palestinian people.

"The guardian of the two holy mosques of King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman have taken a noble stance, namely supporting the Palestinian people. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia firmly expresses support for the Palestinian people," said the President of the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque, Sheikh Abdul Rahman Al-Sudais quoting Antara.

Sheikh Sudais said King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman also invited all people of Saudi Arabia to help alleviate the suffering suffered by the Palestinian people, especially those in the Gaza Strip.

"The Extraordinary Joint High-Level Conference (KTT) of Islamic and Arab Countries in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, resulted in a firm joint statement regarding support for Palestine. The statement is in line with the historical position of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in providing forefront support to the Palestinian people in the various trials and difficulties they face," he said.

Sheikh Sudais also prayed for the safety of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip who are currently surrounded by Israeli troops.

"O Allah, protect our oppressed brothers and sisters in the Gaza Strip. Defend them from all dangers that come from every corner. We take refuge in Your splendor so that they are always given safety," Sheikh Sudais asked in his prayer.
