Wonderful history of the Palestine Liberation by Caliph Umar bin Khattab

However, the conquest of the old city was preceded by a long journey of jihad war. Caliph Umar ordered Amr Ibn Al Ash and Syarhabil Ibn Harikusumo for control of Jerusalem. This incident occurred in the year 635 AD Amr and Syarhabil going towards Jerusalem with the army. But, it's not an easy road. The reason, they must be conquered first few areas to get into Jerusalem.

Forces stepped through the lush and mountainous area full of trees in the Golan (Jaulan). Here, the Muslim army will pass Galileia in northern Palestine. Just like the Golan, the area is also very fertile. Jews and Christians have a historical memory is important in this city. And, a small war going on. Amr led force and Syarhabil won the battle with the Byzantine army which was then in power. Cities along Galileia capable conquered Muslim forces, and the population is given guarantees of security and ownership.

Rupaya Umar strategy to conquer Jerusalem very intelligent. This city will be dominated by the siege. On the other side of the Palestinians, Yazid Ibn Abi Sufyan and Mu'awiya was also sent to help conquer Jerusalem. Muawiyah carrying troops to conquer the northern region of Palestine. Finally Beirut, Tripoli, Sidon, Byblos, and Latakia successfully mastered. Meanwhile, Yazid conquered the area in the south of Palestine. Yazid area capitulated and Muslim forces were Sidon, Tyre, Acre, to Haifa. After conquering Haifa, Yazid and his forces joined Amr. These two military forces then walk to Jerusalem.

Prince Konstantin II, the ruler of the existing western region of Caesarea of ​​Palestine, feel uneasy with the Islamic troop movements to Jerusalem. Of the existing port town on the coast of this Levantina, Prince Constantine II requested assistance Byzantine troops from Cyprus and Constantinople. In fact, at that time, the defense is strong enough Caesaria as Byzantine territory. Then, forming a Byzantine army under the command Artavon must confront Islamist forces that must pass through the region of Caesarea to get to Jerusalem.

Needless to say, troops and Yazid Amr met Artavon troops from Caesarea. Great war ensued in the area Ajnadin. With the permission of Allah, the Islamic forces prevail. Artavon then fled to Jerusalem. From this victory the conquest of Jerusalem plan so more easily. Caliph Umar immediately ordered additional troops to support Amr. Ubaidah led forces, Khalid, and Mu'awiya was asked to help after conquering Syria and coast Levantina. And, throughout the Islamic forces also surrounded the town during the winter.

Trepidation faced by Artavon and Patriarch Sophronius. Patriarch is the archbishop of the church of Jerusalem. They argue. Artavon not want when Jerusalem handed over to the forces of Islam. On the other hand, wants Patriarch of Jerusalem handed over to the Icelandic forces in peace. He assured the arrival of the Islamic forces as a form of God's will. The debate was witnessed by the people in the church that is located in the castle. And, these people like the idea of ​​Patriarch.

Then dikirimlah church delegates meet Islamic forces. The envoy said that Jerusalem will be submitted to conditions. That is, the surrender of the city is not done with the war, the Byzantine army left to get to Egypt, and the Caliph Umar was asked to come to Jerusalem for the handover of "key cities". Abu Ubaidah who receive it undertakes church envoy existing demand.

After the good news was delivered to Umar, he was rushed to Jerusalem. This city community even prepared to welcome Umar procession which for them is quite flattered attitude of fairness. But, this procession suddenly disappeared. Because the people in Jerusalem only saw two people and a camel. One of them climbed into the back of a camel. Really, does not seem like the arrival of the authorities in this day and age filled with lavish reception.

Umarlah townspeople thought that riding on the backs of camels. On the contrary, that in the back of a camel is a bodyguard Umar. It turns out they took turns riding a camel during the trip. Umar unselfish let his guard fatigue. This incident adds to awe the people of Jerusalem against the new leader .. Moreover, Umar simply wear shabby, makeshift food supplies, and a mat to pray.

Arriving in the city, Umar greeted Bishop Patriarch. Umar invited to several holy sites in the city. Bishop opened the Church of the Holy Sepulchre when the time arrives dhuhur. That is, Umar first shlat welcome in the church. However, it was rejected Umar.

"If I pray in this church, I was worried my followers who do not understand and people who come here in the future will take over this building and then turn it into a mosque, just as I never prayed in it. They will destroy your places of worship. To avoid this difficulty, so that the Church you remain as they are, then I pray outside, "said Umar who still respect the other religions in the area of ​​the protection of Islam.

When Umar asked for transfer to the former Temple of Solomon, he found the ruins was not maintained. There are a lot of dirt and rubbish heaps. Umar and other companions clean up the place and make it a place of prayer. Going forward, in this place stands a mosque on the orders of Umar. The mosque named Masjid Umar.

Umar victory over Jerusalem to the whole of Palestine. Jordan, Levantina coast, and Syria, marking the end of the Byzantine kakuasaan (Greco-Roman). Once in the grip of Islam, Palestinians living in the shadow of the Islamic government. The good news, even if already under the control of Islam, the rights of non-Muslim communities remain protected. This contrasts with the Israeli government in today's mass killing of Palestinians to seize this holy land and the entire surrounding area.

In the near future, God willing, will soon be released back Palestine from the clutches of the infidels. [Mzf]
