West blasted for remaining silent on Israeli massacres towards oppressed Muslim Gazans

Ali Erbaş, the President of Religious Affairs, participated in the event "Coming Together in Morning Prayer with Family" held for Palestine and Gaza. Prior to the event at Kapu Mosque in Konya, Erbaş led the morning prayer.
In his speech to the congregation, Erbaş stressed that Allah's intention in creating humanity is for the purpose of testing them.
Erbaş, pointing out that everyone sees the murders, evils, and injustices committed in the world, spoke as follows: "According to our Prophet's teachings, we should take action against any wrongdoing. If we are unable to physically intervene, we should speak out against it. And if even that is not possible, we should at least detest it in our hearts. In light of the ongoing violence and loss of innocent lives in Palestine, failing to act, speak, or feel appalled would leave us questioning our role within the ummah."
Emphasizing the significance of taking essential measures to prevent injustice, Erbaş warned that failing to do so would ultimately impede efforts to combat wrongdoing.
Erbaş emphasized the long-standing tradition of this ummah and nation supporting the oppressed against oppressors throughout history. He affirmed, "We will uphold our principle of standing with the oppressed, as it brings solace to the souls of our martyrs. In honor of our predecessors who sacrificed their blood and lives for the Islamic lands, it is our duty to carry on this legacy. We must instill this mindset in our youth."
Erbaş highlighted the deep-rooted empathy of our nation towards Jerusalem, Gaza, and Palestine, which is driven by a sense of compassion that extends to all humanity. He urged for a universal response, posing the question: "Are we not human enough to take action simply because those suffering in Gaza are Muslims? If they were Christians facing injustice there, we would also stand up for them. This is an enduring tradition from the time of caliphs like Umar, Saladin, and Osman Gazi to Mehmet the Conqueror's protection of Christians after taking over Istanbul."
