The All India Shia Personal Law Board spokesman Maulana Yasub Abbas said that Iran will avenge the death of its general Qasem Soleimani. Until his death is avenged, red flags will be displayed at the mosques in Iran, he said while addressing journalists in Roorkee on Monday.
Abbas said that the US had launched a vicious attack which Iran will not tolerate. Reiterating that Iran will avenge Soleimani’s death, he said that the US is a friend of Pakistan but an enemy of India. Referring to the Nanakana Sahib incident, he said that Pakistan is not an Islamic nation but a terrorist nation which also kills Muslims living in the country. Drastic action needs to be taken against Pakistan, he added.
Targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi he said that earlier the citizens felt that with him at the Centre, an atmosphere of harmony would be established.
However, there is a sense of insecurity among followers of some religion which is affecting the atmosphere of harmony. Alleging that the Modi government is trying to divide the country in the name of religion, he opposed the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and the planned National Register of Citizens. Opining that these developments will harm the nation, he claimed that the citizens are united in opposing these developments.
