19:01Now PlayingFirst reported in The Free Press, the gripping and distressing narrative of Imam Mohammed Mushtaha's abduction, his son, Ala Mohammed Mushtaha, recounts the stark reality of defying Hamas in Gaza. The imam, a respected figure with a doctorate in sharia from Al-Azhar University, was known for his unwavering principles and deep faith. On December 30th, 2023, his home was violently invaded by twenty masked men. This abduction was a direct result of Imam Mushtaha's refusal to comply with Hamas's stringent directives, including the exploitation of his mosque as a hidden weapons arsenal and the propagation of sermons dictated by the group. His family, deeply rooted in Gaza for generations, had endured persecution from Hamas long before October 7th, marked by arrests, beatings, and intimidation for refusing to toe their line. In a poignant and defiant statement, Ala Mohammed Mushtaha shared his father's last words, a testament to his courage and integrity: "It was his last request to us, literally as he was being carried out of the door, that should he die, we should publicize the real reason for his death, and it is this: He wouldn’t preach what Hamas told him to. He refused to tell Gazans that violent resistance, and obedience to Hamas, is the best way out of our current hell."
