French-Tunisian Imam Hassen Chalghoumi: Hamas Has Distorted the Image of Islam and Palestinians; The October 7 Al-Aqsa Flood Was a 'Flood' of Blood and Destruction That Drowned the Palestinians and People of Gaza

In an interview on Maria Maaloof's channel on YouTube on October 26, 2024, French-Tunisian Imam Hassen Chalghoumi discussed how Hamas distorted the image of the Palestinians and the Palestinian cause, as well as the perception of Islam and Muslims. He described the October 7 Al-Aqsa Flood as a wave of blood and destruction that deeply affected the Palestinian people and the residents of Gaza. Chalghoumi asserted that this event was not aimed at liberating the Al-Aqsa Mosque but was intended to destabilize Jordan, Egypt, the Gulf, and the broader Arab world. He drew parallels to the “Arab Spring,” characterizing it as a spring of destruction, and highlighted that the agenda behind this is that of Iran’s Rule of the Jurisprudent.
