Focus On Israel #95: Arabs for Israel

Professor Khaleel Mohammed, an Islamic law scholar, noted that Surah 5:21 of the Qur’an, and the medieval exegetes of the Qur’an say that Israel belongs to the Jews. He translates it thus: “Moses said: O my people! Enter the Holy Land which God has written for you, and do not turn tail, otherwise you will be losers.” Mohammed here understands “written” to mean “this is the final word from God on the subject.”
