In a statement issued on Sunday, major Islamic unity center in Iran, World Forum for Proximity of Islamic Schools of Thought censured the recent terrorist attack targeting Shia mosque in Peshawar leaving over 250 people dead and injured, reported Taqrib News Agency (TNA).
The world forum in its message condemned the "criminal and terrorist act by enemies of Islamic unity" and the ignorant people pretending to be pious who target worshippers in sacred place, mosque.
Part of the message by world forum runs," This humanitarian catastrophe which has targeted Islamic society has hurt the hearts of Muslim world and proved again that bloodshed, insecurity, massacre of civilians are the sole outcomes of the extremist and Takfiri minds."
It stressed that the incident highlights importance of dialogue and Islamic unity more than ever.
"Here we urge the scholars and elites from different denominations in the world of Islam to take action based on the Islamic and Qur'anic teachings and also the lifestyle of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and his companions" read another part of the message demanding uprooting of such catastrophe in the Islamic societies.
Under any name or with any intention, terror attacks manifest ignorance and deviation from the lifestyle of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and stand for the whims of enemies of Islam. They prove extremism and misunderstandings from the holy religion.
"World Forum for Proximity of Islamic Schools of Thought condemns the crime against humanity urging Pakistani government to stand responsible in regards to protecting the life and properties of Muslims and block the way for terrorist actions in the country", noted the world forum in conclusion.
World Forum for Proximity of Islamic Schools of Thought also offered condolences with the bereaved families of the victims and Pakistani nation.
