The Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia issued a ruling forbidding war against the Jews and proclaiming that Hamas is a terror group.
The Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia, Abdulaziz Al Sheikh, issued a surprising religious ruling, saying that fighting against Israel was inappropriate and that Hamas is a “terror organization.”
The Muslim cleric issued the ruling while answering a question on a television program regarding the Palestinian riots surrounding the Temple Mount in July, Turkey’s Anadolu news agency reported.
Israel’s Communications Minister Ayoub Kara welcomed the unexpected decision and invited the Mufti to visit Israel.
“We congratulate Abdulaziz Al Sheikh, the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia as well as the head of Ulema (Islamic scholars), for his fatwa [Muslim religious ruling] forbidding the fight against the Jews and forbidding to kill them,” Kara, a Druze, tweeted on Monday.
“He will be welcomed with a high level of respect,” Kara stated.
This was not the cleric’s only exceptional proclamation. In September 2016, he ruled that Iranians are descendants of Zoroastrians and are therefore “not Muslims.” Their “enmity to Islam, especially the Sunnis, is very old,” he said.

沙特阿拉伯的大穆夫提（Mufti）发表了一项禁止对犹太人进行战争的裁决，并宣布哈马斯是一个恐怖组织。
沙特阿拉伯的大穆夫提Abdulaziz Al Sheikh发表了令人惊讶的宗教裁决，认为与以色列的对抗是不恰当的，哈马斯是一个“恐怖组织”。
土耳其阿纳多卢通讯社报道，穆斯林教士在7月份就电视节目回答关于圣殿山周围巴勒斯坦骚乱的问题时作出裁决。
以色列通信部长阿尤布卡拉欢迎这个意外的决定，并邀请穆夫提访问以色列。
“我们祝贺沙特阿拉伯大穆夫提的阿卜杜勒阿齐兹·谢赫，以及乌列玛（伊斯兰学者）的领导人，因为他的穆斯林宗教裁决禁止与犹太人作斗争，并禁止杀害他们。”卡拉，德鲁兹，星期一啾啾。
“他将受到高度的尊重，”卡拉说。
这不是神职人员唯一的例外宣言。 2016年9月，他裁定伊朗人是琐罗亚斯德人的后裔，因此“不是穆斯林”。他们“对伊斯兰教，尤其是逊尼派的敌意是非常古老的，”他说。
