Hashemite Guardianship of Jerusalem
The article discusses the history and role of Hashemite guardianship over the Islamic and Christian holy sites in Jerusalem, which began in the early twentieth century after Britain occupied Palestine. The Hashemite custodianship is a historical and legal responsibility carried out by the Kingdom of Jordan to protect and oversee these sacred places, preserving their identity, integrity, and freedom of worship. King Abdullah II inherited this role from his ancestors, especially since the era of Sharif Hussein bin Ali, with an emphasis that the guardianship includes the Al-Aqsa Mosque and its courtyards, while adhering to principles that confirm East Jerusalem as part of the Palestinian territories occupied in 1967, and that sovereignty over Jerusalem is a right of the Palestinian people. Israeli occupation practices are considered violations of international law. In recent years, Jordan has been keen to continue restoration and maintenance work on mosques and churches in Jerusalem, including the Dome of the Rock and the Hussainiya Minbar, supporting the preservation and restoration of holy sites, reflecting the ongoing commitment of the Kingdom to protect these sacred places and preserve their religious and cultural identity.
