Since many years ago, this Muslim cemetery in Balad al-Sheikh near Haifa, has been targeted for destruction. It has gone through many stages in which graves have been destroyed by extremist groups or even written slogans on its tombstones. Also, it has been revealed a new wave of conspiracy theories are being hatched by "investors" and various authorities to prepare the land of the cemetery and expel its dead residents - who are steadfast even after their deaths. This violation must cease and the place must be respected.

مقبرة بلد الشيخ تضم قبور أجدادنا وأهلنا، للمقبرة قدسيّة ومكانة فلا يعقل تجريف القبور وكأن الأرض فارغة! إنّ في ذلك تعد حقير غير أخلاقي. واجبنا الحفاظ على المقبرة وصيانتها وحمايتها من مطامع الشركات وتعاون الجهات الرسمية التي تغيّر مسار الشوارع وتمنع المساس بأي قبر فيه دفن يهودي! فهل قبر اليهودي مختلف عن قبر المسلم إذ يسمح بتجريف قبر المسلم؟! حفظ الله مقدّساتنا.
