Hajj Amin al-Husseini
Hajj Amin al-Husseini was a prominent Palestinian Arab leader and the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem during the early 20th century. Born in 1895, he played a significant role in the political landscape of Palestine during the British Mandate. Al-Husseini was known for his opposition to Zionism and his efforts to mobilize Arab resistance against Jewish immigration to Palestine.
In 1936, he became a key figure in the Arab Revolt, advocating for Arab rights and independence. Al-Husseini's influence extended beyond Palestine, as he sought support from various Arab nations and even collaborated with Nazi Germany during World War II. His actions and legacy remain controversial in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
