Religious violence our common enemy

“Our deepest condolences go to the victims of this heinous crime. We pray for them and we offer our love and support to their families,” said Dr Rateb Jneid, AFIC President.

“We call on the London authorities to do what is necessary to provide justice to the victims of this terrorist attack.”

As a peak body of Muslims in Australia, we urge the community to respond to these horrific incidents with solidarity, unity and strength.

This cowardly act is aimed at disuniting the Muslim and the non-Muslim community. Muslims Australia calls upon all Muslims and non-Muslims to stand united against any form of violence.

Terrorism does not belong to any religion or faith. Religious fanaticism and divisive extremism is our common enemy.

“Muslims Australia appeals to all world leaders to be responsible when making public comments and to ensure their actions and comments work to create unity, peace, harmony and mutual respect instead of division, hatred and intolerance,” Mr Jneid said.
