Geelani asks JK Muslims to protect, maintain brotherhood

Commenting over execution of top Shia cleric Sheikh Bakir Al-Nimr in Saudi Arabia and situation thereafter, Geelani said it is very sorrowful that the whole Muslim Ummah is divided and engaged within. “The imperialistic powers and Zionist lobbies are not only taking advantage of this situation but are making every attempt to inflame this fire so that the Muslims get eliminated within”.

While condemning imposition of curfew and restrictions in different areas in the Valley, he appealed the entire Muslim Ummah particularly the Muslims of Jammu and Kashmir to protect and maintain the brotherhood and unity on every cost and not indulge in any such activities which will serve the purpose of the enemies.

“The present situation in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Syria and Yemen, where the people of same religion, same faith, same community, followers of an only creator are fighting and killing one another, is the heartbreaking for every conscience Muslim and these situations give us sleepless nights. The entire Ummah has been caught up in such a dark tunnel where no evidence of any light is seen,” the Hurriyat (G) chairman said.

He said it is not now hidden from anybody that all this situation is creation of anti-Islam imperialistic powers and Israel and they are making the Muslims to fight with each other in a planned manner.

He alleged that rulers and Ulema class of the Ummah, who could have played an important role in changing this situation, are either working for the enemies for their personal benefits or are silent due to the fear.

“Until the Muslims rise above the differences of Shia and Sunni and unite on the Holy Quran and teachings of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), they will continue to play in the hands of the enemies and they will never come out of the present worst situations,” added Geelani.
