40K Worshipers Perform Friday Prayer At Al-Aqsa Mosque


(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency)


Amman, Oct. 4 (Petra)-- Thousands of people performed the Friday prayer at Al-Aqsa Mosque, despite the Israeli Occupation authorities' stringent military controls on entry to the mosque.
The Friday prayer in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque were reportedly attended by around forty thousand worshipers, according to the Islamic Awqaf Department in Jerusalem.
The occupation forces still strictly prohibit worshipers from entering Al-Aqsa Mosque, particularly on Fridays. Thousands of residents of the West bank governorates are also unable to travel to Jerusalem to perform prayer in Al-Aqsa Mosque because they need special permission to pass through their military checkpoints encircling the holy city.
