In an interview on Al-Aqsa TV (Hamas-Gaza) on June 5, 2021, Abu Ras said that because the Palestinians were weak, the Islamic nation must come to their aid and fulfill the “divine command” to massacre the “absolute” enemy of the Islamic nation: they must “ hit their necks ”.
He stated that it would take many injured and dead, much sacrifice, blood and sacrifice to make the enemy think “a thousand times” before embarking on a full confrontation. (You can find more about Marwan Abu Ras in MEMRI TV clips No. 7355, 7332, 6041, 5846, 5664, 5633, 5046, 4769 and 3598.)
Marwan Abu Ras: “Allah commanded that we should always strive to liberate and redeem our country. [Der Koran sagt:] ‘You will enter the mosque as you entered it the first time.’ How are they going to enter the mosque? How did you enter it the first time? ‘They ravaged the houses’ [wie es im Koran steht]. In other words, there must be injured and dead, there must … “
Interview: “Victim…”
Marwan Abu Ras: “Yes, there must be sacrifices and blood must flow. At the time of the Crusader Wars, the blood in the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque reached the necks of the horses. We know very well that this is not a trivial matter. And if it is not a trivial matter for us, it will be for them too [die Feinde] not be. Therefore, they will think a thousand times before embarking on a major confrontation.
So, my dear brother, massacring this enemy is a divine command. [Der Koran sagt:] ‘So hit them on the neck and cut off every fingertip.’ Slapping this enemy on the neck is a sharia duty. Anyone who can massacre this enemy should not let this duty slip because this enemy is the enemy of the Islamic nation [in ihrer Gesamtheit].
He is our enemy first, but he is also the absolute enemy of the Islamic nation as a whole. There is no overriding priority here. It is our fate to live on this land and to fulfill this task. But at the same time it is the duty of the Islamic nation [in ihrer Gesamtheit]because we are weaker than the enemy.
Therefore, the Islamic nation must help us and make us strong so that we can be victorious and [das Land] that belongs to the Islamic nation and not to us alone. Palestine does not belong to the Palestinians alone. Rather, Palestine is an Islamic waqf country. The entire Islamic nation will have to give an account of this question on Judgment Day. “
