イジリル・アル・シャマリヤ(アラビア語: إجليل الشمالية Ijlīl aš-Šamāliyya ) は、ヤッファ地区にあったパレスチナ系アラブ人の村でした。 19 世紀に設立され、カルキリヤ地域のバニサブ族民とエジプトからの移民によって設立されました。[ 6 ] 1948年4月3日の委任統治領パレスチナでは、1947年から1948年の南北戦争中に人口が減少した。
イジリル・アル・シャマリヤ (「北のイジリル」の意味) は、ヤッファの北東 15 km (9 マイル) 、姉妹村であるイジリル・アル・キブリヤ(「南ジリル」)の北約 100 メートルの丘の上 にありました。[ 5 ]
イジュリルは、18世紀にヤルコン川の北岸近くに設立された4つの村の一つです(アル・シャイフ・ムワニス、アル・ハラーム、ウム・ハリドの各村と共に)。歴史家ロイ・マロムによると、イジュリルの設立は「南シャロンにおける居住地の拡大が、これまで主張されていたエジプトの『侵入者』によるものではなく、サマリア山岳高地の住民による中核居住地の内陸拡大の結果であったことを示している」とのことです。[ 7 ]
In June 1870, the French explorer Victor Guérin visited both villages. He described them as one unit called Edjlil, situated on a hill and divided into two districts. Together, they had 380 inhabitants. The houses were built of rammed earth or with different small aggregates mixed in with kneaded and dried silt.[8] In 1870/1871 (1288 AH), an Ottoman census listed Ijlil in the nahiya (sub-district) of Bani Sa'b.[9]
In 1882, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine described the two villages, named El Jelil, as "a mud village, with a well to the south and a second to the north. [..] A small olive-grove exists to the south-east."[10]
In the 1922 census of Palestine conducted by the British Mandate authorities, the twin villages of Ijlil (spelled Jelil) had a population of 154, all Muslims,[11] increasing by the 1931 census to 305, still all Muslim.[12] In 1943 Glil Yam was founded on what was traditionally village land, to the east of the village site.[5]


In the 1945 statistics the population of Ijlil al-Shamaliyya consisted of 190 Muslims[2] and the land area was 2,450 dunams of land, according to an official land and population survey.[3] Of this land, 183 dunams were designated for citrus and bananas, 13 for plantations and irrigable land, 1,574 for cereals,[13] while seven dunams were built-up areas.[14] Also in 1945, a school was founded in the village and shared with Ijlil al-Qibliyya. It had 64 students in its first year. The village also had a mosque and several small shops.[5]
In December 1947 and January 1948 the leaders of al-Shaykh Muwannis, al-Mas'udiyya, al-Jammasin al-Sharqi, al-Jammasin al-Gharbi, and the mukhtars of 'Arab Abu Kishk and the two Ijlil-villages met with Haganah representatives in Petah Tikva. These villages wanted peace, and promised not to harbor any Arab Liberation Army soldiers or local Arab militia. They further promised that, in the case they were not able to keep them out alone, they were to call on Haganah for help.[15]
By mid-March 1948, the Alexandroni Brigade had imposed isolation, dubbed "quarantine", of al-Shaykh Muwannis, 'Arab Abu Kishk and the two Ijlil-villages. However, on 12 March, the LHI kidnapped five village notables from al-Shaykh Muwannis.[16] This undermined the villagers' trust in former agreements, and many left. The people of the two Ijlil-villages also left, after asking Jewish neighbours to look after their property.[17]
In 1992, the historian Walid Khalidi found that the place was difficult to identify with precision as it was part of a large garbage dump.[5]
