Al Aqsa Project

During the holy month of Ramadan, Israeli police have attacked and arrested Palestinian worshippers in a violent raid on the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Masjid Al Aqsa is at the heart of every Muslim. It represents a deep-rooted connection and importance to Muslims everywhere.

Sadly, since 2014, Masjid Al-Aqsa and the communities entrusted with looking after it have become increasingly vulnerable and at huge risk due to increased raids and attacks. In addition to this, these communities are facing increased hardships with the cost of daily living and need your on-going support.

Join our #BlessedRoots Campaign!

Donate now to help preserve, support and sustain the communities which protect and keep this masjid filled with the daily recitation of the Holy Qur’an. Your donation will help bring thousands of worshippers come together to perform a khatam of the Holy Qur’an in the blessed masjid. Each khatam is offered with a duaa to keep Al-Aqsa safe.

What is the Waqfiyyat Al Mustafa project?: We formally launched ‘Waqfiyyat Al Mustafa’ with The Royal Hashemite Court, Jordan on 11 December 2022. His Majesty King Abdullah II Ibn Al Hussein and Palestinian President Mr. Mahmoud Abbas formally signed the Al Mustafa Waqfiyyat documents, which were initiated in September 2022.

The Waqfiyyat project is inspired from our unshakeable belief in the solemn duty to protect and defend Jerusalem and the Blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque. Through the waqf, and with the generous help of our donors, 1000’s of Muslims will collectively read the Qur’an in its entirety in Al-Aqsa, and in the Blessed Dome of the Rock Mosque. Vulnerable families living in the local area of Al-Quds will also be supported through Zakat donations.

Why did we launch the Waqfiyyat Al Mustafa project?: The goal of Waqﬁyyat Al-Mustafa for Khatm Al-Qur’an in Al-Aqsa Mosque is to reflect the care Muslims have for the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque. It is a message to all who think that the Al-Aqsa Mosque is no longer deeply-rooted in our hearts and minds.

It also aims to reap the blessings of reading the Qur’an in its entirety in Al-Aqsa Mosque continuously, repeatedly, and permanently, and to increase the prevalence of Muslims in Al-Haram Al-Sharif regardless of political conflicts.

Who is the supervising authority of the Waqfiyyat project?: The supervising authority is the Waqf’s Council whose members include legal entities such as the Jerusalem Awqaf Council, the Hashemite Fund for the Restoration of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock as well as the Administration of the Jerusalem Awqaf & the Affairs of Al-Aqsa Mosque.
