Our duty in this dire situation is to provide material and spiritual support to the oppressed people of Gaza wherever possible.”

According to the verses of the Quran, if you kill one person, it is as if you have killed all humanity." The disaster is that they kill in the name of Islam, even though these assassinations are against Islam, Islam is a religion of mercy, and the holy imams (PBUT) attracted people with love; Islam is based on love and affection, unfortunately, some people introduce Islam with bloodshed, killing, and terror, which is also the conspiracy of the enemies of Islam and supported by them.”
