Turkish Government’s Religious Authorities Issues Anti-Israel Fatwa, Stands With Hamas Terrorism And Killing Of Jews Everywhere


Embracing wide-spread murder and mayhem, spreading hatred, issuing decrees to boycott Israeli companies and anyone who supports them (that’s beginning to sound a little familiar, isn’t it?). There’s a reason why Jesus says the region of modern day Turkey is “where Satan’s throne is” and “where Satan dwells.” Turkey continues to inch closer to the precipice of its own destruction …

Nordic Monitor – “The Turkish government’s Religious Affairs Directorate, or Diyanet, a multi-billion dollar organization with nearly 150,000 personnel overseeing approximately 90,000 mosques in Turkey and abroad, has aligned itself with Hamas amid the conflict in Gaza.

After multiple public and private meetings with Muslim Brotherhood (MB) and Hamas clerics since October 7, when Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigade fighters launched a surprise attack on Israeli targets, the Diyanet appears to have adopted a policy that reflects an anti-Israel religious edict (fatwa) issued by top MB clerics and their Palestinian affiliates.

The resolution adopted at the end of the 43rd Consultative Meeting of Provincial Muftis (İl Müftüleri İstişare Toplantısı) on November 16 was the culmination of efforts spearheaded by the Diyanet. Essentially echoing the talking points of the Muslim Brotherhood network, it emphasized that the Diyanet had mobilized all its resources and personnel to aid Palestinians. The resolution further called for a halt to all direct or indirect assistance to Israel.

The resolution asserted, ‘Gaza, Jerusalem and Palestine are matters of faith and dignity for Muslims,’ highlighting that ‘remaining indifferent to the atrocities and genocide committed by Zionists in Gaza, providing direct or indirect support to the oppressors, is a significant moral burden and an unforgivable crime against humanity.’

During a speech delivered at the meeting, Diyanet President Ali Erbaş, appointed by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, issued a religious edict stating that it was forbidden for Muslims to support any country that stands by Israel. ‘Remaining indifferent to oppression and injustice, staying silent in the face of tyrants and traitors, is directly or indirectly supporting oppressors, occupiers, terrorists and killers. Supporting those who support them is also forbidden.’

The Diyanet, initially established by the Turkish state to counteract radicalism, has undergone a fundamental transformation during Erdogan’s 22-year rule, evolving into a significant instrument for propagating political Islam, reminiscent of the ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood, both within Turkey and internationally…

The Diyanet’s alignment with Hamas and support for Palestinian militants in their attacks on Israeli civilians and military targets is no exception to the policy pursued by the Erdogan government.

In the November 16 meeting, the top government imam also revealed that the religious directorate had made a decision to boycott companies supporting Israel and called on the Turkish people to participate in this boycott…” Read more

Flashback: Turkish Prime Minister Erdoğan — The Man Who Could Trigger a World War – “The greatest threat to the world’s peace, at this moment, comes from a man named Recip Tayyip Erdogan. He is the prime minister of Turkey, at the head of the Justice and Development Party (‘AK,’ from the Turkish). A former mayor of Istanbul, he was arrested and jailed when he publicly recited Islamist verses (‘the mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets are our bayonets,’ etc.), in defiance of the old secularist, Ataturk constitution, which made it an offence to incite religious and racial fanaticism… The West is just watching, while Erdogan creates pretexts for another Middle Eastern war: one in which Israel may be pitted not only against the neighbouring states of the old Arab League, but also Turkey, and Iran, and Hamas, and Hezbollah.” Read more.
