The Islamic world is passing through challenging times due to growing radicalisation and misusing of its name by terror groups, Union Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said, as he called for a united war against terrorism at global level.
Noting that growing radicalism and terrorism are biggest challenges before humanity and the Islamic world, he cautioned that terrorism should not be viewed through the spectacle of religion for political gains.
“Islamic world is passing through challenging times because of radicalism and efforts of terror groups misusing the religion. These terror organisations are misinterpreting the Holy Quran for their narrow self-interests,” he said.
In a blog, titled ‘Murder of Humanity to Establish Evil Empire’, the Minister of State for Minority Affairs said, “We should be careful that we should not look at terrorism through the spectacles of religion for political motive. The day we will link terrorism with religion we will be trapped into ill design of terror elements.”
He noted that those elements who are indulging in such cruelty have nothing to do with Islam or humanity as their only motive is murder of humanity.
“These coward people want to establish evil empire across the world by destroying humanity... These groups want to establish their rule with the help of violence,” he said.
