Jerusalem affairs expert Fakhri Abu Diab warned of the danger of settlers and members of the Temple groups blowing the trumpet inside Al-Aqsa Mosque during Jewish holiday incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Abu Diab said in a special statement to Beit Al-Maqdis News that the settlers repeatedly blew the trumpet during the storming of Al-Aqsa on what is known as the “Jewish New Year” and “Feast of Tabernacles.”

Abu Diab stressed that the ritual of blowing the trumpet symbolizes the occupation's entry into a new era and the beginning of a new time period, and that Al-Aqsa Mosque has become under the control and dominance of the occupation, and this indicates that they have begun to deal with it as a synagogue and temple, not an Islamic mosque.

The researcher specializing in Jerusalem affairs, Ziad Abhais, documented the settlers blowing the shofar 14 times since the beginning of the Jewish holiday season about two weeks ago.

Buhais added that the Temple groups deliberately documented the trumpet blowing process and published it publicly, as part of their gradual efforts to normalize the Palestinian, Arab and Islamic mind to repeat the biblical rituals in Al-Aqsa Mosque.

The importance of blowing the trumpet, in her view, comes from the fact that it is a declaration of the alleged Zionist sovereignty over Al-Aqsa.
