This German biography presents Amin al-Husayni’s alliance with Nazi Germany as worthy of support and attacks Jewish national restoration in ארץ ישראל EREẒ YISRAʾEL. It matters as a wartime witness to Nazi advocacy around the mufti, preserved in the book’s own language.

What the book says
The book presents Amin Al-Husseini as the leader of an Arab and Islamic struggle against Zionism and British rule. It praises his political and religious influence, describes his connections across the Arab and Islamic world, and frames his wartime alignment with the Axis as part of that struggle. It also uses antisemitic claims and depicts Jewish immigration, land purchases, and national institutions as a danger to be resisted.
These statements are evidence of Fischer-Weth's Nazi-aligned political advocacy. They are not an autobiographical statement by the mufti and do not establish the beliefs of Arabs or Muslims collectively. Accounts of violence, population figures, political motives and historical events remain the author's claims unless independently corroborated.2

Unclear readings, source errors and disputed dates are identified where they occur; the source's wording is not silently corrected.
