Posted text: “Pictures of Jerusalem Martyr Omar Abu Asab (i.e., terrorist, wounded 2 people) in the plazas of the Al-Aqsa Mosque before the occupation forces took them down after their invasion of the Al-Aqsa Mosque a short time ago.”
The images show a poster featuring a picture of terrorist Omar Abu Asab being displayed on the Temple Mount.
Text on poster: “‘And never think of those who have been killed in the cause of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision’ [Quran 3:169, Sahih International translation]

Jihad – victory or Martyrdom-death”
The PA and its leaders misrepresent all of the Temple Mount as an integral part of the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Therefore, they vilify any presence of Jews on the mount as an "invasion." It should be noted that Jews who visit the Temple Mount only enter some sections of the open areas, and do not enter the Al-Aqsa Mosque or the Dome of the Rock. Israeli police ban Jewish prayer at the Temple Mount because of threats of violence by Palestinians.
