After the massacre of October 7th, when militiamen from Hamas, an Islamic terrorist group, attacked Israel, took to the streets and, taking up arms, committed real carnage, the University of Tunis appealed to all students to support the struggle undertaken by Palestine for liberation and sent a message to the Islamic faithful. The newspaper Il Giornale had the opportunity to view the official document.
We must participate in the fight against Israel: this is the warning contained in the document. “This is an individual legal and sharaitic duty that affects the entire Islamic community in all parts of the world. Therefore, it is not Islamically legitimate to avoid this duty,” we read. The aim of the University is to be a “clear message to the community. Islam and its armies must move quickly towards the blessed land and infiltrate homes to eradicate the Jewish entity”. The advice therefore seems to be to act as the Hamas militiamen did more than two weeks ago: take to the streets, enter homes and eliminate the Jews. .
To justify these atrocities, the duty of religion is highlighted. Everything must happen in the name of Allah: “Supporting and supporting the struggle, the jihad, in Palestine is an individual obligation of all Muslims… the immediate duty of the Islamic community is to return to the right path.” The University of Tunis then addresses the spiritual guides directly: “We urge imams to fulfill their religious duty in the pulpits to encourage unity among the ranks of Muslims in the face of the Crusader-Zionist alliance.” It is necessary, however, to make a clarification: this message was released by the University and the management of the Zaytuna Grand Mosque. Misbar, the Arab platform that combats disinformation, clarified that these statements have no connection with Tunisian President Kais Saied.
