Grand Ayatollah Nasser Makarem Shirazi condemned the construction of a synagogue near the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

According to Ahlul BAyt News Agency (ABNA.ir), in a statement, the grand Ayatollah called the construction of Hurva synagogue in the Occupied city of Quds a “Satanic plot” by the Zionist regime whose aim is Judaization of the holy city.

He said that building the synagogue and the resumption of settlement building activities are parts of a terrible plot for destruction of the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

This new conspiracy has enraged Muslims worldwide and they believe it will lead to another Intifada in the occupied territories, he noted.

He went on to say that even if some Arab governments may remain silent, Muslim nations will stand against the Zionist Regime’s illegal measures with ever greater solidarity.
