A Quranic Message from the Gaza Holocaust

An op-ed by Dr. Muhammad al-Madhoun uses Quranic verses to incite the nation to mobilize in support of Gaza, transforming the suffering of the Strip into a test of faith and collective responsibility, with a call to turn sympathy into organized action.

An op-ed by Dr. Muhammad al-Madhoun begins with a Quranic verse (At-Tawbah: 41) to establish the concept of 'mobilization' as a religious and moral duty towards Gaza. The author describes Gaza as 'a field where divine laws manifest' and 'a school that tests the meaning of faith and responsibility.' The article reviews various forms of mobilization: the doctor, the paramedic, the teacher, the journalist, the wealthy person, and the mother, citing verses from Surat An-Nisa, Al-Anfal, As-Saff, and Al-Ma'idah. The author warns against the danger of the prolonged tragedy becoming a familiar scene that loses its impact, and concludes with a direct question to the nation: 'Where is your position regarding Gaza, and how have you mobilized?' The article reframes events in Gaza within a religious-jihadist framework, transforming resilience into a test of faith and the call for support into a religious obligation.
