There is an Arab proverb that says, "O Pharaoh, what has made you be such a tyrant? He said, 'I did not find anyone to stand against me.'"

Jerusalem is facing the direction of the wind, contending with an imminent danger that has set its goal and schemed to swallow Jerusalem, Judaize it, and uproot it from its Arab and Muslim origins.

This is the tenth message of Rasa`il Tarsheed As-Sahwah (Message of awakening guidance), which deals with one of the most important issues before us as both Muslims and Arabs: Al-Quds Ash-Sharif (the Noble Jerusalem).

This enemy has declared its decision, challenged, confronted, and aggressed and has not found anyone from among the entire nation of Islam who can stand against it.
