Yishai Fleisher with a message for Muslims and Jews direct from the Temple Mount during the solemn period of the Nine Days preceding the 9th of Av, the day both Holy Temples in Jerusalem were destroyed.
Yishai is being told by Israeli police to keep moving and not to stand in one place for too long. Jews on the Temple Mount are only allowed to walk quickly around the perimeter, and not to tarry. This year the Nine Days coincide on the calendar with Ramadan.
But while the 2nd Temple was destroyed 2,000 years ago, the Muslim world of today is in great turmoil. Yishai asks whether their problems are tied into the Muslim authority’s denial of prayer rights for Jews on the Temple Mount. If you deny blessings to others, will you be blessed?
