He seized this opportunity to reach out these armed groups saying” Oh brothers…get back to reason and repent of your sins” echoing the Saudi armed group’s experience before them who ended up concluding that they were doing wrong “ Your brothers in Saudi Arabia did the same before you, some have slain innocents and others killed and destructed but they regretted their deeds “, he added.

In addition to his condemnation of these acts, he put the focus on the harmful consequences of the terrorists’ move” what did you rip out of your combat… it didn’t bring anything for the Muslims; it rather left orphans, destruction and mayhem and most importantly it tightened the noose around the Muslim community across the world “, he noted.

The scholar has indicated that “bearing arms was among the big sins and would bring curse “ especially when it comes to slaughtering “ regardless of their nationalities”, he noted that Islam forbade the killing of non-Muslims echoing the first terrorist acts perpetrated against foreign aides in Saudi Arabia “ we have staunchly condemned this act because our religion doesn’t tolerate slaughtering including foreigners.. soul is precious and Muslim’s blood is even more” .
