🕌💙 Bosnian Mujahideen Who Saved Al-Aqsa Mosque

Philosopher and ideologist of "modern jihad" Abdullah Azzam in his book "Tafsir of Surah At-Tawba" describes how Bosnian fighters who arrived from Yugoslavia took part in battles against the Israeli army.

In 1948, when the war in Palestine began, mujahideen from Yugoslavia arrived to fight. One fighter told how he alone penetrated the ranks of thousands of Jewish soldiers and, despite the shelling, remained unharmed thanks to prayers.

When the Jordanian army retreated, leaving Jerusalem and the Al-Aqsa Mosque, Bosnian Sheikh Abdurrahman refused to leave the mosque. Together with a group of young Muslim Brotherhood fighters, they took up positions inside the mosque and began shooting at Israeli soldiers from the windows. Their heroic actions led the Israelis to believe that the mosque was full of fighters, and they did not dare to storm it.

Later, when Egypt and Syria united to form the United Arab Republic, Egyptian leader Gamal Abdel Nasser handed the Bosnian fighters over to Yugoslav leader Josip Broz Tito, who soon executed them.
