Gaza Friday Sermon During Funeral Of Hamas Military Commander Marwan Issa: You Love Martyrdom, You Love To Kill For The Sake Of Allah; The Resistance Could Not Have Waged Jihad, Massacred The Jews If Not For Allah; We Will Continue On The Path Of Jihad
“Oh Allah, count them all, kill them one by one, and do not spare a single one of them. Oh Allah, disperse them, and shake the ground under their feet.”
In a Friday sermon delivered in the Gaza Strip, during the February 7, 2025 funeral of Hamas military commander Marwan Issa, who was killed in March 2024, imam Abd Al-Rahman Al-Jamal addressed the crowd and told them: “You […] love martyrdom for the sake of Allah. You love to kill for the sake of Allah.” He added that the resistance fighters could not have waged Jihad and massacred the Jews, had it not been for the “grace of Allah.” He quoted a verse from the Quran stating: “You did not kill them it was Allah who killed them.”
Regarding Trump’s plan to relocate Gaza residents, the imam said that either they return to their land within the 1948 borders, referring to Ashkelon, Ashdod, Ramla, Haifa, and Jerusalem, or they will be martyred. He pledged to continue on the path of Jihad and resistance until the liberation of Palestine. The sermon was delivered during a ceasefire between Hamas and Gaza and aired by Al-Aqsa TV (Hamas).
Speaker: “The [Islamic] nation has been plagued with a disease of love for the material world and hatred of death. You, however, love martyrdom for the sake of Allah. You love to kill for the sake of Allah.”
“The conspiracies are ongoing. Trump’s plan to displace the Palestinian people… We are planted in this land, and either we return to our country – to Ashkelon, Ashdod, the village of Aqir, Ramla, Haifa, and Jerusalem – or we will be martyred. There is no other way.
“We pledge before Allah and before our people that we will continue on the path of Jihad and resistance, until the liberation of our country, Palestine.
