Srinagar, July 20: Muttahida Majlis-e-Ulama (MMU), the umbrella organisation of all major Islamic sects in Jammu and Kashmir, including some social and educational institutions headed by Mirwaiz Moulvi Muhammad Umar Farooq, issued an important statement urging for peace and concord on the current sectarian controversy at Khanqah-e-Moula Srinagar.
It seems that this incident was a planned and mischievous attempt to hurt the sentiments of the larger sect by some elements at work, which needs to be investigated. While it is the duty of the Wakf Board to unearth the truth behind this mischief as they are the custodians of the shrines and maintaining their sanctity it’s duty, MMU has decided the formation of a committee consisting of responsible members from both sects to investigate and identify the elements involved in this incident. The committee will submit its report in some time after which MMU will follow up on this matter, the statement issued by MMU said.
MMU urged scholars and preachers of both sects to stop making comments and speeches on all platforms including on social media that hurt each other’s sentiments, damage unity, and make the Ummah vulnerable.
