CAIRO - Dr. Shawki Allam, Egypt's Grand Mufti, has strongly condemned the terror attack outside the British Houses of Parliament in Westminster, which left four dead, including the attacker and a police officer, approximately 40 other people injured and many others in critical conditions, according to British News agencies. The Mufti stressed that all divinely-revealed religions and all man-made laws share in rejection and condemnation of any form of terrorization and aggression against innocent people. Egypt's Fatwa House issued on Thursday morning the Mufti's statement in which he said: "This terrorist act is only reflecting and revealing of all terror groups' pursuits to strike terror and fear into safe and secure communities, on top of those terror groups is the infamous ISIS or (Daesh in Arabic) whose thirst for more bloodshed and atrocities is rapidly growing day by day."
The Mufti also said that international cooperation and concerted international efforts have become today's urgent necessities to confront all terror groups, first and foremost of which is the bloodthirsty ISIS, and to get rid of all forms of terrorism down from the roots all over the world. At the end, Egypt's Mufti extended his sincerest condolences to the grieving families of the victims of the tragic attack, to the British government and to the people of Britain at large.
In related news, Both Al-Azhar Institution and The Fatwa Observatory, an affiliate think-tank to Egypt's Fatwa House, have previously condemned the London terrorist attack as well.
