Sheikh Nayef Al-Rajoub (Arabic: نايف الرجوب, born 14 May 1958) is an MP of the State of Palestine. He was Minister of Religious Endowments and became a lawmaker during the 2006 Palestinian legislative elections won by Hamas in Gaza. As a member of the Hamas faction, he was arrested five times by Israel including on June 29, 2006 as part of Israel's Operation Summer Rains. Years ago Major General Jibril, Nayef’s older brother parted politically years ago with his little brother to the point that in [citation needed] 1996 during a crackdown on Hamas members, then Colonel Jibril led the Preventive Security Force to arrest his own brother even if just for one day. Furthermore, as a member of the rival Fatah party[1] Major General Jibril also ran but lost against Nayef in the 2006 Palestinian legislative elections.
On 26 July 2020, IDF arrested Rajoub from his home in the city of Dura near Hebron.[2]
