75,000 Worshippers Gather at Al-Aqsa for Ramadan's Final Friday Prayers Amid Israeli Restrictions

Around 75,000 Muslim worshippers gathered at Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem for the final Friday prayers of Ramadan. Despite facing strict Israeli restrictions and reported harassment, Palestinians participated in the prayers at the sacred site. The number of worshippers this year was notably lower due to increased security measures. Al-Aqsa Mosque, a significant religious site for Muslims, remains a focal point of tensions, with ongoing restrictions on Palestinian access further intensifying regional grievances. #AlAqsa #Jerusalem #Ramadan #Palestine #Israel #Prayers #OccupiedJerusalem #FinalFriday #MuslimUnity #ReligiousFreedom #IsraeliRestrictions #MiddleEast #AlAqsaMosque #PrayerGathering #Peace #FreedomOfReligion #PalestinianRights #HolySite #Conflict #BreakingNews ~HT.336~GR.124~

Trump’s Immigration Arrest Policy Faces Lawsuit from 27 Religious Groups Over House of Worship Raids

More than 27 Christian and Jewish groups, including the Episcopal Church and Union for Reform Judaism, filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration, challenging a policy that allows immigration agents to make arrests in houses of worship. The groups argue the new policy instills fear in worshippers, affecting attendance and their ability to minister to undocumented migrants. The lawsuit highlights concerns over religious freedom, as worshippers fear deportation while attending services and engaging in community programs. #ImmigrationPolicy #ReligiousFreedom #TrumpAdministration #ICE #DeportationRaids #WorshipRights #ChurchRaids #UndocumentedMigrants #Christianity #JewishGroups #MigrantRights #RefugeeSupport #TrumpImmigration #USLawsuit #SeparationOfChurchAndState #FaithBasedOrganizations #ReligiousLaw #ImmigrationReform #ImmigrationEnforcement #SupremeCourtCase #SanctuaryChurches ~ED.346~HT.334~
