‘Fight against terrorism is not against any religion, Muslims’
New Delhi: Jordan Raj Abdullah, during his visit to India on Thursday said the fight against terrorism and raidcalisation was not against any religion or against Muslims, but against extremism and violence.
"Today's global war against terror is not a fight between different religions or people. It is between moderates of all faiths and communities against extremism, hate and violence," the King said. "What is heard in the news and what is shown about religion is what separates people," he said.
Sharing his views on religion, Abdullah II said faith should hold humanity together.
He added that around the world, suspicions are inflamed by what different groups don't know about others. "Such ideologies of hate distort the word of God — to stir up conflicts and justify crimes and terror. "We need to take these things seriously... they should never be allowed to distract us from the truth that faith should draw humanity together."
The Jordanian King arrived on Tuesday on a three-day state visit. Earlier in February, he had hosted Modi in Amman.

#Mossad trending on ‘X’ since Iranian President’s death in chopper crash; Here’s why
Tehran: Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, who was considered a potential successor to the supreme leader, died in a helicopter crash in northern Iran, state media reported on Monday. He was 63.
The tragic incident occurred amidst heightened tensions in the Middle East, particularly due to the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. Last month, under the directive of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Raisi had overseen an unprecedented drone-and-missile attack on Israel, further escalating regional unrest.
Social media buzzed with speculation following the news of the crash. On the microblogging platform ‘X’, the hashtag #Mossad trended as netizens speculated that the Israeli intelligence agency was behind the mishap. One user commented, “It’s never an accident,” reflecting widespread suspicions.
President Raisi was returning from a ceremony to open a dam on Iran’s border with Azerbaijan when the helicopter crashed. He had been in Azerbaijan earlier on May 19 to inaugurate the dam alongside Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev. Raisi’s death was confirmed in a statement by Vice President Mohsen Mansouri and on state television, according to Reuters.
The helicopter crash follows recent escalations in the region. Iran had launched a deluge of drones and missiles on Israel in response to a suspected Israeli strike that killed top Iranian officials in Syria, deepening the conflict between the two countries.
