Cleric: ISIL, brainchild of western Intel to divide Muslims

Senior Iranian scholar called Daesh as the brainchild of western intelligent services to weaken some countries, divide Muslims and marginalizing threat of Israel.

Hawzah News Agency - Hujjat-ul-Islam Seyyed Salman Safavi, manager of international center of peace studies attended the expert-level meeting on Takfiri (excommunication) movements in Syria highlighting the reasons behind creation of

Daesh terrorist group including weakening Iran, Russia and China, dividing Muslims, marginalization of Israel threat and launching an anti-Shia movement.
 
 He said the ideological origins of Takfirism involves the basic ideologies of some scholars in all Islamic denominations who lead Xenophobic views on followers of other religions excommunicate them from Islam.
 
He said,” Those who are wise lead moderate views and those who follow superficial thoughts do not respect the right of living for other readings of religion rather than their own and divide the world of wisdom to “we” and “others”.
 
Iranian thinker related on modern Takfirism as “He who thinks different from me is out of religion” and this has plagued both Shia and Sunni communities saying anyone leading another view than that of mine should be isolated.
 
He expressed regret that the violent view by some Shia clerics on Takfir, excommunication of companions of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and denying Sunni Muslims have provided some people with enough pretexts to deviate and set the Shia as

an enemy.
 
“Superficial thoughts by some clerics from different Islamic denominations have led to actions and reactions among their followers” said the scholar and added the identity crisis as another reason for the massive recruitment of Takfiri groups

among the youth in Europe.
 
Hujjt-ul-Islam Safavi also referred to Islamophobia as another reason which has lubricated the western youths to join Takfiri groups and said,” In my view the UK is the stepfather for Al Saud and the US is an heir to British colonialism in Saudi

Arabia when the recent multi-million arms deal between Donald Trump and Saudi Arabia is a clear instance for that.
 
Iranian elite called Saudi Arabia as a main puppeteer of Takfirism and an ideological as well as military supporter of Takfirism who is in charge of feeding the deviate group in terms of military, intelligence, politics and economics.
 
He also touched upon the collaboration of the US with Saudi Arabia in regards to creation of ISIL and said when the US has been in charge of the plots the Arab kingdom was obliged to train and finance the project.
 
He referred to the background of the Middle East crisis since the outbreak of Islamic Awakening in northern Africa back in 2010 to the opposition protests in Syria which turned into arms clashes where the political confrontations transformed into a

battle so swift that the reasons were pieced together to prove a preplanned crisis created by collection of terrorist groups appearing in new names.
 
“In the Middle East we are facing a project to change the map by Zionist and capitalist hubs and not a popular revolutionary movement” said the cleric and added,” For instance the fall of Gaddafi in Libya was in fact a Zionist plot by France carried

out in alliance with the UK and US; therefore, the plan was to topple Gaddafi and Assad in order to change the Middle East plan and also secure peace for Israel.”
 
According to the Iranian thinker the domino effect on topple of Arab rulers in Tunisia and Egypt moved global and regional powers to react particularly inspired the western countries to carry out with the plots they had in store fearing that Iran

might make the opportunity and turn into the main power in the region.
 
Hujjat-ul-Islam Safavi concluded that the body of Takfiri movements which includes ambitious though orthodox youths should be divided from the head which is the deviate and ignorant rulers who are in collaboration with western intelligent

services.
 
Prominent Iranian thinker referred to boosting the Sunni community who respect the household of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) as a link between Shia and Sunni, supporting secular and democratic movements in the Arab world and also launching

dialogue between Iranian elites and the Sunni world as the solutions for the issue of Takfir in the Middle East region.
