Tehran:Prominent Islamic Cleric of Islamic Republic of Iran and source of emulation in Holy City of Qom, Ayatollah Hadavi Tehrani condemned the aggression over people of Jammu and Kashmir and called upon Free governments, Islamic Nations to join hands and urge international and regional organizations as well as assemblies to put pressure for the restoration of  the rights of the oppressed people of Jammu and Kashmir.

of Indian government’s brutal aggression against Kashmir.

In a Statement to Wilayat Times, His Eminence said:

In the Name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful

For what sin were they killed?
{The Holy Quran: Surah al-Takveer: Verse 9}

Kashmir in India, with its faithful and suffering people, is part of the vast Muslim community. For several weeks, its innocent people have been subjected to unprecedented and brutal attacks by the Indian government in the shadow of the deadly silence of the world’s media. Shocking news, coming out despite heavy censorship, are much painful and regrettable.

How does a government in the modern world allow itself to violate the rights of a large group of citizens and to invade their lives and properties?!

How can a government attack a part of its territory in a barbarous and violent way and regard it a step towards the return of ‘past glory’ to Kashmir?!

Undoubtedly, the free people, especially Muslims all over the world, must prevent the continuation of this shameful abuse in every possible way and express their disgust at the harsh behavior of Indian government.

Free governments, especially Muslim States, must join hands and urge international and regional organizations and assemblies to put an end to this crime and restore the rights of the oppressed people of Kashmir.

“And those who act unjustly shall know to what final place of turning they shall turn back” (the Holy Quran: Surah: Al-Shu’ara: Verse 227)
