Jews Are "The Descendants Of Vipers" Who "Made Prophets Moses And Aaron Regret Being Born"

Mustafa Öztürk: "In the language of Prophet Jesus, 'the descendants of vipers' entered the mihrab of the [Al-Aqsa] Mosque in Jerusalem, with their boots, and trampled over what we hold sacred.

"They are there creating commotion, unrest, and provocation. These progenies made prophets Moses and Aaron regret being born.

"As Written In The Quran, [The Jews] Deserve To Be Damned; May Allah Curse Them"

"I am not saying anything antisemitic here, but whoever wants to, can open the Book of Nehemiah and read from their own book how ungrateful these people were towards Allah.

"As written in the Quran, they deserve to be damned. May Allah curse them."
