Ribat Al-Kurd (Hawash Al-Shehabi / Ribat Al-Shahbani)

The most serious thing facing this historical landmark is the excavations carried out by the forces of the Zionist entity behind the Aqsa Mosque and below, which led to a defect in the foundations and parts of it and cracked walls.

The reformist Jews took a place to pray there since 1969 and tried to control it.

In 1971, there were some landslides due to these excavations, and the entity set up pillars to delay its fall.

In 2012 it dismantled to expand the area in an attempt to create a new order in Ribat, the "Jerusalem Development" project is responsible for the restoration.

Number of excavations, tiling and restoration currently carried out in an Israeli attempt to turn it into a walled Al-Buraq, believing that there are stones from the Temple Mount to become a gathering place for extremist Zionists during the holidays and the rest of the year.

In the year 2013, the ribat subjected to major attacks, the staff of the Israel Antiquities Authority, despite the refusal of the Jordanian government and the Islamic Waqf, refused to do so.

The Zionist forces guarded it; the workers erected a high wooden scaffold and claimed that they were doing their work in the wall.

The building also witnessed a daily occurrence of the extremists who call themselves "Little Kotel", during which they perform their religious rituals, the staff of the Israel Antiquities Authority, on the first day, collected the papers that they were putting together.

The Jews were among the stones of the western wall in the Shehab Valley and began to partially encircle the wall and then removed the tiles they had laid under the Qantara Place the iron staves, placed an old tile-like tile in its place.

The Islamic Waqf Department denied the claims of the Israeli occupation that the "Ribat al-Kurd" is a holy place for the Jews because it is a permanent property inhabited by the Shihabi family and the Jews have no right to it.
