The article discusses the gradual changes that have taken place at Al-Aqsa Mosque in recent years. It highlights how the laws governing sovereignty and access to its gates have slowly shifted—from initially allowing only non-Muslim visitors without performing religious rituals, to increasingly lenient policies that permit open prayers, collective prostration, and the entry of Jewish prayer books into its courtyards. While the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asserts that the status quo has not changed, Jewish National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir insists that policies now allow for prayers inside the mosque, including communal worship and the introduction of religious tools. There has also been an expansion in the hours of storming the mosque and a rise in the public introduction of prayer texts and books. These developments reflect a notable escalation in Israeli policies regarding the mosque and other holy sites.
