RNA – The vandalism purportedly took place at the Nineveh Museum, which puts on exhibit Assyrian artefacts dating back to the 9th century BC. The Takfiri terrorists have already razed to the ground a number of mosques in Syria and Iraq, many of them belonging to the early years of the Islamic civilization. The terrorists have also destroyed tombs belonging to revered Shi’a and Sunni figures.

In this regard, Molavi Eshaq Madani stressed, “The entire world, along with Muslims and non-Muslim leaders in different areas of politics and religions, have slammed such malignant actions.”

“They [Takfiri groups] misinterpret Quran verses and narrations,” said the cleric stating Takfiri groups held such misinterpretation as a criteria for themselves and based on them make their moves.

“Given that, standing against such takes and viewpoints which have been internalized in these groups would be very difficult,” said the member of the Supreme uncil of the World Forum for Proximity of the Islamic Schools of Thought.

“In fact, what they are doing reflects their wrong conception of religious teachings,” underlined the religious cleric adding these extremist groups levelled criticism at any one who has different standpoint and describe other Muslims as deviated and infidels.

Elsewhere in his remarks, Molavi Madani referred to the activities and programs forwarded by the World Forum for Proximity of the Islamic Schools of Thought. The renowned cleric stressed that the World Forum would try its utmost to shun spreading deviation and distortion in the Islamic world.

Muslims should steer clear of concepts and measures which lead to disunity and in this regard the World Forum for Proximity of the Islamic Schools of Thought spares no effort to take effective steps in this area.

To religious clerics, enemies should be impeded by Muslims in advancing their seditious objectives and it is shouldered by Muslims to avert plagued situation in the Islamic world as a result. In doing so, according to Molavi Madani, such objective and aim cannot be happened unless through protecting unity and solidarity.
