<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Proceeding<\/u> from the principles and aims set out in the Charter of the Islamic Conference for the promotion of Islamic Solidarity, coordination of action to maintain the integrity of the Holy Places and to liberate Al Quds, and the support of the Palestinian people to enable them to recover their rights and liberate their homeland,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Guided<\/u> by the resolutions of the First Islamic Summit Conference in Rabat and the Second Summit Conference in Lahore, and by all resolutions of Islamic Conferences of Foreign Ministers and of the Committee on Al Quds as regards supporting the struggle and <\/p><\/div>\n

\n

resistance of the Palestinian people, since this struggle is a struggle for liberation, from colonialism and zionist racist occupation and is being waged in defence of the national inalienable rights of the Palestinian people,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Stressing<\/u> the determination of the Palestinian people to maintain their eternal right to the Holy City of Al Quds as the capital of their homeland Palestine and the insistence of Muslim Governments and peoples alike on their eternal right to the Holy City of Al Quds, in view of the paramount political, religious, cultural and historical importance of Al Quds to all Muslims.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>(5)\t<\/span>Refusing to admit of a unilateral action by any one of the Arab or Islamic parties to reach any solution of the Palestinian issue in particular, and the Arab-zionist conflict in general, and the continuation of the resistance to the Camp David approach and accords and to any consequences thereof until they are eliminated and their sequels removed as well as resistance to any initiative stemming therefrom, extending material and moral support to the Palestinian Arab people in the occupied Palestinian territories, and enhancement of their resistance to the conspiracy of autonomy.<\/p><\/div>\n

\t<\/span>The Third Islamic Summit Conference (Palestine and Al-Quds Session) meeting in Mecca, from 19 to 22 Rabi-ul-Awwal 1401 H (25-28 January, 1981);<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Proceeding<\/u> from the principles and objectives of the Organization of the Islamic Conference, and the principles and objectives of the United Nations Charter,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Guided by<\/u> the resolutions of the two Islamic Summit Conferences, the first in Rabat and the second in Lahore and those of the Foreign Ministers on the Palestine Question, Al-Quds Al-Sharif and the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Reaffirming<\/u> the link between the destiny of Islamic States and their commitment to the aims of their joint struggle for peace, justice and progress and against colonialism, foreign occupation, racial discrimination, zionism and racism,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Seriously concerned<\/u> over the deteriorating situation in the Middle East which could result in a new war thus endangering international peace and security, in view of Israel's persistence in its aggressive, colonialist and racist policy, and as a result of the collusion with the Egyptian regime and the United States,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Reaffirming<\/u> that the Palestine Question is the core of the struggle against Zionism, and that Israel's continued refusal to withdraw from the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories and its flouting of the inalienable national rights of the Arab Palestinian people constitute a flagrant violation of the principles of the Islamic Conference Organization and UN Charter, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and of the principles of International Law,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Noting with great concern<\/u> the recent developments of the Middle East problem and the Palestine Question in the region, particularly the normalization by the Egyptian regime of its relations with the Zionist entity and its persistence in carrying out the autonomy conspiracy and the dangers that ensue therefrom which imperil Islamic principles, values, heritage, culture and civilization,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Considering<\/u> that the Liberation of Al-Quds and its restoration to Arab sovereignty, as well as the liberation of the holy places from Zionist occupation, are a pre-requisite to the Jihad that all Islamic States must wage, each according to its means,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Convinced<\/u> that time has come to apply the sanctions provided for in Chapter VII of the UN Charter, against Israel, since it is persistently violating the principles of the Charter, refusing to implement the resolutions of the International Organizations and pursuing its aggression against the Arab States and the Palestinian people,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Convinced<\/u> that the Islamic States should take firm and practical measures to counter the Zionist enemy's continued aggression and violations,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>1 – Reaffirms<\/u> that the problem of the Middle East and the Palestine Cause cannot be solved unless the following principles and conditions are implemented concurrently, without any exception and also reaffirms its commitment to these principles and conditions,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t(a)\t<\/span>The cause of Palestine is the core of the Middle East problem and the crux of the Arab-Israeli struggle;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t(b)\t<\/span>The Palestine Cause and the Middle East problem form an indivisible whole when dealing with the problem, or seeking a solution thereto hence any solution may not be a partial solution, concern some parties to the exclusion of others; or relate to some of the causes and not to others; nor can any partial peace be attained, for peace should be comprehensive and include all parties to the dispute, and should moreover, eliminate all the causes that led to it, in addition to being a just one;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t(c)\t<\/span>A just peace in the region can only be achieved on the basis of total and unconditional withdrawal by Israel from all the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories, and on the recovery by the Palestinian people of their inalienable national rights including:\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t–\t<\/span>their right to their homeland, Palestine;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t–\t<\/span>their right to return to their homeland and recover their property in accordance with the UN General Assembly Resolutions;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t–\t<\/span>their right to self-determination without any foreign interference;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t–\t<\/span>their right to freely exercise sovereignty over their land and natural resources;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t–\t<\/span>their right to establish their national independent State in Palestine under the leadership of the Palestinian Liberation Organization.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n

 <\/p><\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t(d)\t<\/span>that Al-Quds is an integral part of the occupied Palestinian territory, and Israel must unconditionally and totally withdraw from it, and it should be restored to Arab sovereignty;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t(e)\t<\/span>that the P.L.O. is the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people and it, above is fully entitled to represent that people and to participate independently and on an equal footing in all Conferences, activities and international fora connected with the Palestinian cause and the Arab-Israeli conflict, with a view to achieving the inalienable national rights of the Palestinian people.  No solution can be comprehensive, just and acceptable unless the P.L.O. participates in its formulation and accepts it as an independent party and on an equal footing and parity with the rest of the parties concerned.  No other party is entitled to claim the right to represent or negotiate on the question of Palestine, its people, its territory and its rights, otherwise it shall be considered null and void and by no means legally binding.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t(f)\t<\/span>That Security Council Resolution 242 (1967) is not in keeping with the Palestinian and Arab rights and does not constitute a sound basis for the solution of the Middle East problem and the Palestine Question.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t(g)\t<\/span>That no Arab party concerned should unilaterally seek a solution to the Palestine Question or to the Arab-Zionist conflict, that resistance to the Camp David Accords, should be pursued, their consequences, effects or any initiative emanating therefrom voided, moveover, material and moral assistance should be extended to the Arab Palestinian People in the occupied Palestinian territories, and their resistance against the autonomy conspiracy reinforced.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>2.\t<\/span>Reaffirms<\/u> that any solution that is not founded on all those principles and conditions can never lead to a just peace but, on the contrary, can only exacerbate tensions in the region and pave the way for the policies applied by the parties to the Camp David Accords to liquidate the question of Palestine and help Israel achieve its objectives and expansionist, colonialist and racist policies.  It would, moreover, encourage bilateral and partial solutions while disregarding the essence of the problem;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>3.\t<\/span>Reaffirms<\/u> the right of the Arab States and the Palestine Liberation Organization to struggle militarily, politically and, by any other means, to liberate their occupied territories, secure the inalienable national rights of the Palestinian people and foil by all means possible any solution or settlement which is detrimental to such territories and rights;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>4.\t<\/span>Reaffirms<\/u> that the support of Islamic States to the Arab States with a view to enabling the latter to liberate their territories, and their support to the Palestinian people to help them restore their inalienable national rights, are both a responsibility and an obligation dictated by the principles and objectives of the Charter of the Islamic Conference Organization.  The Conference also affirms that such support should be clearly expressed in practical and effective measures and positions on the part of all Member States;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>5.\t<\/span>Reaffirms<\/u> its full and effective support to the Palestinian people in their legitimate struggle under the leadership of the Palestine Liberation Organization, their legitimate and sole representative inside and outside the occupied homeland, with a view to liberating it, restoring their inalienable national rights in Palestine.  All Member States shall commit themselves to safeguarding Palestinian unity, the independent character of Palestine Liberation Organization and non-interference in the internal affairs of Palestinian action.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>6.\t<\/span>Affirms<\/u><\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\ta)\t<\/span>The commitment of Islamic States to liberate Al-Quds to become the capital of the independent Palestinian State, and to reject any situation which might infringe on the Arab right to full sovereignty over Al-Quds.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tb)\t<\/span>The commitment of all Islamic States to use all their means to foil the Israeli decision to annex Al-Quds and make it the capital of the Israeli entity, and decides to apply a political and economic boycott against those States which recognize this Israeli decision or participate in its implementation or establish their Embassies in Al-Quds Al Sharif;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>7.\t<\/span>Calls upon<\/u> all countries throughout the world to abide by the United Nations resolutions by refraining from dealing with the Israeli occupation authorities and from any kind of relations that could be construed by Israel as a de facto recognition of its declaration that Al Quds has been the eternal and unified capital of the Israeli entity.  It particularly calls upon all countries to refrain from:<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>A – Signing any agreements in Al Quds;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>B – Making official visits to Al Quds; <\/p><\/div>\n

\n

\t<\/span>8.\t<\/span>Calls upon<\/u> member states to psychologically mobilize their people for Jihad to liberate Al Quds, through their official, non-official and otherwise mass media;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>9.\t<\/span>Emphasizes<\/u> that any infringement on the resolutions of the Islamic Conference Organisation on the Middle East problem and the cause of Palestine and Al Quds will weaken the struggle waged to liberate Al Quds and the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories and secure the inalienable national rights of the Palestinian people, undermine the struggle of the Organization against colonialism, foreign occupation, racism and Zionism and will be a reneging by Member States on their determination to put an end to Israeli occupation of the Palestinian and Arab territories and assist the Palestinian people to achieve their inalienable national rights;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>10.\t<\/span>Reaffirms<\/u> its rejection and condemnation of the Camp David Accords signed on 17.9.1978, and the Israeli-Egyptian Treaty signed on 26.3.1979, and all the consequences and efforts ensuing therefrom and asks that they be resisted by all means and methods;<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

 <\/p><\/div>\n

\n

\t<\/span>11.\t<\/span>Strongly condemns<\/u> any partial or separate solution and any agreement detrimental to the rights of the Arab nation and, the Palestinian people that would violate the principles and resolutions of the Islamic Conference Organization and the UNO, or that could impede the liberation of Al-Quds and the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories or prevent the Palestinian people, from securing and fully exercising their inalienable national rights;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>12.\t<\/span>Condemns<\/u> the collusion between the Egyptian Regime, Israel and the United States in all fields and deems it a direct aggression against the right of the Palestinian people, their homeland and future, and a serious threat to the security and stability of Arab and Islamic States, and decides to support the suspension of its membership to the Non-aligned Movement;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>13.\t<\/span>Strongly condemns<\/u> the Egyptian government for proceeding to normalize relations with the Zionist entity and considers it a denial of the principles of Jihad and a danger to Islamic principles, ideals, heritage, culture and civilization; and decides to suspend Egypt's membership in the Non-Aligned Movement.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>14.\t<\/span>Strongly condemns<\/u> the USA's persistence in its inimical attitude towards the inalienable national rights of the Palestinian people, and total withdrawal from all the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories, including Al Quds, which constitutes a violation of the principles and objectives of the UN Charter and of the resolutions of the General Assembly on the question of Palestine and the Middle East, and impedes the establishment of a just peace in the region; the Conference also condemns the policies the United States of America seeks to impose on the region at the expense of the liberation of the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories, including Al Quds and at the expense of the inalienable national rights of the Palestinian people.  The Conference also condemns the continuous and increasing support of the United States to Israel in all fields, particularly the military and political fields; affirms that the United States' persistence in these policies are detrimental to its relations with the interests in Muslim States;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>15.\t<\/span>Strongly condemns<\/u> Israel for pursuing its policies and practices in Al Quds and the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories, particularly its annexation policies and the establishment of Israeli settlements, bringing in alien settlers, demolishing houses, seizing and confiscating property and land, evicting the lawful inhabitants deporting, expelling, despoiling, exiling, transferring and rejecting them; in addition to their liquidation on a mass scale denying them the right to return, their massive detention and wholesale torture, the obliteration of national, archaeological, spiritual and cultural landmarks; violating the liberties and preventing the exercise of rights and religious rites; disregarding the laws relating to personal status, illegally exploiting the heritage and natural and human resources of the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories and their inhabitants; and considers such practices and measures, void and illegitimate;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>16.\t<\/span>Condemns Israel<\/u> for refusing to abide by Security Council resolution 446 (1979), 452 (1979) and 465 (1980) in which the Council emphasized that all measures taken by Israel to change the characteristics of the occupied Palestinian and Arab territories, including Al Quds, are illegal, denounced Israel's policy and practice in establishing settlements, and stressed the need to cancel these measures and remove the existing settlements, and abstain from setting up others;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>17.\t<\/span>Declares<\/u> that such Israeli policies and practices constitute a dangerous violation of the UN Charter, in particular the principle of sovereignty and territorial integrity, the principles and provisions of international law, UN resolutions, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Fourth Geneva Convention on the protection of civilians in times of war.  Such policies and practices constitute a major impediment to the establishment of a just peace in the Middle East;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>18.\t<\/span>Calls upon<\/u> all the States and Peoples of the world to refrain from extending military, manpower, material or moral support to Israel likely to encourage it in perpetuating its occupation of Al Quds and the Palestinian and Arab territories, and declares that such a continued support to Israel will compel Islamic States to take appropriate stands against then;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>19.\t<\/span>Deplores the attitude of these states that provide assistance and arms to Israel and considers that the real purpose of flooding Israel with this great quantity of weapons of war and destruction, is to establish it as a colonialist and racist base in the third world, in general, and in Africa and Asia, in particular.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>20.\t<\/span>Condemns<\/u> the collusion between Israel and South Africa and their identical policies of aggression and racism, and condemns, as well, cooperation between them in all fields since it threatens the security and independence of Africa and Arab States;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>21.\t<\/span>Invites<\/u> member states which had recognized Israel to withdraw such recognition and sever all kind of diplomatic, consular, economic, cultural, sports and touristic relations, as well as all forms of communication with Israel at all levels, official or otherwise, and requests the member states that have not yet severed such relations to do so;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tA.\t<\/span>Request the U.N.

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tB.\t<\/span>Request the member states of the United Nations and its specialized institutions to assume their responsibility and face up to the continued rejection by Israel of United Nations resolutions, by applying appropriate penalties against Israel, in implementation of the provisions of Chapter VII of the UN Charter, and request the General Secretariat to take the necessary measures in this regard;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>24.\t<\/span>Decides<\/u> to have recourse to all Islamic states economic, potential and natural resources in a studied and planned manner with a view to:<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>A.\t<\/span>Weakening Israeli economy;<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>25.\t<\/span>Calls upon<\/u> the Member States of the European Economic Community to fulfil their undertakings to the effect that their bilateral and multilateral agreements with Israel shall not be applied in the Palestinian and Arab occupied territories and endeavour to secure such a stand from other states that have similar agreezments with Israel;<\/p><\/div>\n

\t<\/span>The Third Islamic Summit Conference, meeting at Mecca Al-Mukarrama and Taif from 19-22 Rabi-al-Awal 1401 H, corresponding to 25-28 January, 1981,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Having examined<\/u> the latest developments of the question of Al-Quds Al-Sharif, the fact that it is under occupation, that it has been declared the eternal capital of the Zionist entity, that Islamic sanctities, and religious and cultural heritage have been violated and desecrated,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Considering<\/u> that the Zionist enemy persists in denying the inalienable national rights of the Palestinian people particularly their right to their homeland and possessions; and the fact that the enemy continues to harass the Palestinian people, subjecting them to persecution and terrorism of the fiercest kind,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Realising<\/u> that the Zionist continue to occupy territories belonging to other Arab states, in disregard of the previous resolutions of the Islamic Conference, as well as the resolutions adopted by international bodies such as the United Nations and the Non-Aligned Movement, which has shown all Muslims and the world at large that this enemy persists in aggression and occupation, in disregard of all ethical rules, ideals and conventions of international relations,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

\t<\/span>Taking<\/u> these facts into consideration, the Kings, Emirs and Presidents of Islamic States, meeting at this Conference and in this holy land, studied this situation and concluded that it could no longer be tolerated that the forthcoming stage should be devoted to effective action to vindicate right and deter wrong-doing; and have unanimously,<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Decided<\/u>:<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tTo declare holy Jihad, as the duty of every Muslim, man or woman, ordained by the Shariah and glorious traditions of Islam;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tTo call upon all Muslims, living inside or outside Islamic countries, to discharge this duty by contributing each according to his capacity in the cause of Allah Almighty, Islamic brotherhood, and righteousness;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tTo specify that Islamic states, in declaring Holy Jihad to save Al-Quds al-Sharif, in support of the Palestinian people, and to secure withdrawal from the occupied Arab territories, wish to explain to the world that Holy Jihad is an Islamic concept which may not be misinterpreted or misconstrued, and that the practical measures to put it into effect would be in accordance with that concept and by incessant consultations among Islamic states.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
