The Great Mufti of Saudi Arabia and that of Dubai make statements against Hamas

The great mufts of Saudi Arabia, Abdul Aziz Al-Sheikhhas released a strong declaration in which he condemns Hamas’ actions, defining his behavior “a shame for Islam”, stamping him as “an act of blasphemy”. With reference to Thursday’s foul ceremony in which the four coffins were exhibited, he stressed that the violence and terror observed in Gaza are totally against the teachings of Islam, stating: «What we saw today in Gaza is a shame for the ‘Islam, an act of blasphemy against Allah and a shame that does not represent the followers of the prophet, peace is on him, or the honorable religion of Islam. The path of Islam includes respect for non -Muslim deaths. Today, the Hamas movement came out of the definition of Islam ». It is not the first time that the Great Mufti Adopt a clear position against violence and terrorism perpetrated in the name of Islam. In 2017, Al-SheikH has issued a fatwa – a religious pronouncement – in which he declared the fight against Jews forbidden, explicitly identifying Hamas and the Muslim brotherhood as terrorist organizations. This position recalls his previous Fatwa from 2013, in which he defined the suicide attacks “criminals who rush to hell with their actions”, taking the distances from extremism and reaffirming an Islam away from violence.

Also the Gran Mufti of Dubai, Ahmed al-Haddadafter witnessing the scenes of the Israeli children who died in the coffins in Gaza, he took a position by declaring: “Hamas brought shame to Islam to a level never seen before”. It is significant that two a religious figure of this relief in the Arab world openly sides against terrorism, condemning the atrocities of extremist groups such as Hamas, who abuse faith to justify their actions. In a period marked by violence and divisions, the words of Al-Sheikh and of al-Haddadrepresent a strong signal: these messages, coming from Saudi Arabia and Dubai, mark an important step in the global struggle against extremism and demonstrates the will of some Arab leaders to distance themselves from radical ideologies to promote peace and coexistence between The peoples. Now let’s hope that other religious personalities in the world stand up and condemn Hamas’ monsters.
