Hawzah News Agency (Beirut, Lebanon) – In a press conference , Head of the Union for Resistance Scholars Sheikh Maher Hamoud announced that the 2nd international convention of Resistance Scholars is going to be held in Beirut, Lebanon on Wednesday and Thursday next week.
He also asserted that Muslim scholars from more than 80 countries will attend the event. The theme of this year's convention is going to be the issue of Palestine and its freedom.
The Lebanese cleric Sheikh Hamoud added, "Scholars from different Islamic countries will be present at the conference; Not to mention that so many of these scholars are under heavy crackdown on dissent from their respected governments. "
"These crackdowns are due to the fact that some of these politicians cannot tolerate religious scholars supporting Islamic Resistance; they want clerics to obey their governments and approve of all their atrocities and injustice."
Chairman of the Union for Islamic Resistance Scholars concluded, "This international conference will serve as a turning point to pave the way for liberation of Occupied Palestine and it will echo the voice of oppressed Palestinians worldwide."
