PRESS
RELEASE
NEW
ZEALAND MUSLIMS CONDEMN TERRORISM
On
behalf of the Muslim community of New Zealand, the Federation of Islamic
Associations of New Zealand Inc. (F.I.A.N.Z.) we would like to express our total
condemnation of the recent Terrorist attacks in the USA on the American people,
the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon. The New Zealand Muslim community
categorically repudiates these cowardly and viscious assaults on civilians. We
offer our deepest condolences to the families whose near and dear ones have been
killed or injured in this barbaric incident.
This
despicable incident is an unacceptable outrage, regardless of who is ultimately
held to be responsible, and we condemn it as fundamentally un-Islamic and
against all the principles of our holy faith. We pray God to have mercy on the
souls of the murder victims and to punish all evildoers who perpetuate and
support such an act of Terrorism.
