Islam teaches that all humanity is equal in dignity. There is no distinction among different nations or regions or races. The Qur'an forbids coercion in religion. Every citizen is guaranteed the state’s protection for their lives, families, properties, honour, privacy, and freedom of religion and thought.

Abdullah II Ibn Al Hussein

We affirm our commitment to carrying out our religious and historical duty in protecting the Holy Sites in Jerusalem and standing up to Israeli violations, especially those targeting Al Aqsa Mosque and Al Haram Al Sharif, using all available means.

Abdullah II Ibn Al Hussein
