Srinagar: In the aftermath of the devastating terrorist attack in Pahalgam that claimed the lives of 28 tourists and injured over 20 others, mosques across Jammu and Kashmir have united in condemning the violence. Imams during Friday prayers denounced the killings as "inhuman" and contrary to the teachings of Islam, offering prayers for the victims and urging authorities to ensure justice is served.
The attack occurred on April 22 in the Baisaran meadow near Pahalgam, where militants affiliated with The Resistance Front (TRF), an offshoot of Lashkar-e-Taiba, opened fire on a group of tourists. This incident marks one of the deadliest civilian attacks in the region since the revocation of Jammu and Kashmir's special status in 2019.
Religious leaders across the region have emphasised that such acts of violence are antithetical to Islamic principles.
The attack in #Pahalgam was strongly condemned from several mosques across #JammuAndKashmir.
