RNA – Hujjat al-Islam Sayyed Muhammad-Hadi al-Musawi al-Safawi, ‎the president of ‎Anjuman-e ‎Shari’ Shi’ayan in Indian-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, expressed regret over the ‎tensions between India and Pakistan and the recent air strikes by both countries and said, ‎‎“In the event of a war between India and Pakistan, the problems between the countries will ‎be worsened.”
‎
Speaking to the public gathering in Central Imambargah in Budgam, the Kashmiri Shi’ah ‎scholar said that both countries should end the tensions between them and find a peaceful ‎solution to the problems through negotiations and added, “Both India and Pakistan are ‎armed with nuclear weapons and both countries will be destroyed in the event of a nuclear ‎strike. Therefore, its necessary to resolve mutual issues with delicacy.”‎

Hujjat al-Islam al-Musawi al-Safawi ‎said that today, the world will again realize that the ‎problem of Kashmir is a very sensitive problem and if it’s not immediately resolved according ‎to the wishes of the people, it can become a dangerous situation which will not only impact ‎this region but rather the whole world will be affected.”‎

His Eminence added, “In the present situation, the Indian media is working to fan the flames ‎of war.”‎

He said that due to the possibility of war, the people are afraid and continuous air patrols ‎have crushed the spirits of the people of Kashmir. ‎

In other comments, Hujjat al-Islam al-Musawi al-Safawi ‎‎condemned the ban on the Jamaat-‎e-Islami of Jammu and Kashmir by the government of India, saying, “Jamaat-e Islami is a ‎leading and active party that has played a significant role in the social and educational fields ‎and it’s a unfortunate step to ban it.” ‎

He said that the Hindu extremist groups, such as the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) ‎and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), are targeting Muslims and Islamic religious symbols and ‎impeding India’s religious tolerance.‎

Hujjat al-Islam al-Musawi al-Safawi ‎‎said that the ban on Jamaat-e-Islami has upset the ‎feelings of the Kashmiri people and they are frustrated due to the situation. ‎

He appealed to the government of India to revise their decision.‎
