‘Islam does not permit killing innocents’

Srinagar, Nov 19 (KNS): Terming the actions of Islamic State (ISIS) as unislamic, Chairman of Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF), Muhammad Yasin Malik Thursday said that Islam doesn’t permit us to kill innocents.

According to KNS correspondent, the JKLF Chief during a blood donation camp organized by JKLF here at Hamid Blood Bank Abi Guzar, said that Islam is against those persons who kill innocents. “The persons who kill innocents should stop calling themselves Muslims. These people are defaming our religion by doing such kind of things,” Yasin said.

He said that the ISIS’ attacks are condemnable and the persons involved in it should stop it.

The blood donation camp was organized in the memory of Shaheed Sheikh Abdul Hamid.

Yasin said that they are remembering those “martyrs” who laid down their lives for the betterment of our future.

“These martyrs proved the fact that JKLF and its leaders always keep themselves in the front row at the time of sacrifices,” he said.

He said that whosoever thinks of defeating a movement nourished by the sacred blood of “these martyrs are living in fool’s paradise”.

Pertinently, the Islamic Jurists have also termed the actions of ISIS unislamic.

"The group is against the basic principles of Islam," Islamic Jurists have said.

Hurriyat Conference (G) chairman, Syed Ali Geelani has also called the actions of ISIS and Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan unislamic.

"The actions and course of action of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, ISIS and Boko Haram like organizations are totally unislamic," Geelani has said. (KNS)
