Bengaluru, Feb 17: Karnataka Muslim Scholars strongly condemned the suicide attack on CRPF jawans at Pulwama in Jammu and Kashmir on Feb 14.

The scholars said that they have considered the attack as an attack on the country and it was unforgivable and urged the central government to identify the culprit and the support behind this attack and teach them a lesson.

The Muslim scholars who held a meeting at Frazer town Masjid condemned the attack and expressed their solidarity to the families of the soldiers who laid their lives for the country.

Terrorists have been using the religion as a shield to their acts. The people who kill innocent people and destroy the society would not represent any religions. They were traitors of all religions and society equally. No one should not link them with any particular religion or society, they appealed.

The meeting was chaired by Darul Uloom Sabeelur Rashad head Amir Shariat Maulana Sageer Ahmed Khan Saheb Rashadi, in which scholars like All India Ulema and Mashaikh Board Karnataka head Syed Tanveer Peeran Hashmi of Vijayapura, Jamiatul Ulama Karnataka president Mufti Iftikar Ahmed Qasimi, Masjid E Noor Yatheem Khana Imam and Khatib Sageer Ahmed Sharief Nadvi Khasimi, Jamia Muhammad Ahmed founder Mufti Shamshad Banakal Saheb, Jamia Masjid Khateeb Maulana Maqsood Imran Rashadi, Jamia Islamia Maseehul Uloom founder Mufti Shuibal Khan Miftahi, Madrasa Islahul Banath supervisor Moulana Shabbir Ahmed Hussein Nadvi, Moulana Mufti Mohammad Aslam Sahab Rashadi Qasimi of Jamia Gaisul Huda of Shikaripalya and Maulana Syed Abul Hasan Ali Nadvi Academy of Bhatkal, Maulana Ilyas Nadvi were present.
