| Summary: | Objectives: This article explores the question of rebuilding the unity of the Muslim umma within the recent context of the Al-Aqsa Storm operation or Ṭūfān al-Aqṣā, whose impact has transcended the Islamic world to affect various other communities. This event has placed the Palestinians’ struggle at the center of all struggles, which, in the face of the international community’s complacency against the Palestinian people, revived the calls and increased the need for ways to unite Muslims.
Methodology: The scholarly approach pursued in this study includes reviewing material from its diverse sources, establishing concepts, analyzing questions, justifying different opinions and stances, comparing them with others, and critiquing them as needed. It adheres to both a maqāṣid-based approach (related to the higher objectives of the Sharia) and a sunan-based approach (grounded in the Quran’s reading of the divine patterns in the history of societies, i.e., sunan). It also documents references from various sources and presents the research in its final form.
Findings: This research concludes that the strategic restoration of the Muslim ummah must be founded on two methodological grounds: the foundational principles and divine patterns of God (sunan), and a practical implementation process.
Originality: The originality of this work lies in harnessing the current geopolitical changes in the context of Al-Aqsa Storm operation to design a comprehensive strategy to uniting the Muslim Ummah.
