#PAU2017 The plight of the Palestinians and the issue of Jerusalem becoming the capital of Israel were at the forefront, on the second day of the 71st UMNO General Assembly at the Putra World Trade Centre, PWTC today. In hope for divine intervention to save Jerusalem, party President Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and other Supreme Council members as well as delegates at the gathering, joined a special ’hajat’ prayer at the Tun Razak 2 hall this afternoon, beeseeching Allah to save one of Islam’s three Holy sites from falling into the hands of the Zionist state and for the safety of Palestinians. The atmosphere also turned heavy with emotion as the impassioned ‘doa’ led by Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department, Datuk Jamil Khir Baharom, drove many in the congregation to tears. The move follows the United States’ announcement on Wednesday that it was officially recognising Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, triggering outrage in the Muslim world. Concerns have also arisen that the U.S.’s announcement will spark an uprising among radical movements, and plunge the Middle East into a political crisis.
