Is the new Jewish State in occupied Palestine permanent? Have the Jews 'come to stay' in the Holy Land? What does the Qur'an say about the Jews' second return to Palestine from where they were driven out twice, first by Nebuchadnezzar, the Babylonian king, in 587 BC (they returned about 500 years later) and again by the Roman Emperor Hadrian after quelling the Bar Cochba rebellion in 135 CE? Since then Jews' settlement in Palestine has been restricted and at times they were barred from entering even Jerusalem except for performing religious rites.
