Darul fatwa against terror
One of the most influential Muslim seminaries, with followers across the world, on Monday issued a kind of fatwa, declaring terror activities as anti-Islam. The Darul Uloom seminary in Deoband also involved top clerics at a conclave in defining terrorism in the light of the Quran and Shariah.
Reading out the declaration on behalf of an aging Darul Uloom rector, Maulana Marghoobur Rahman, a member of Darul's governing body said: "King of innocents is not compatible with Islam. It is anti-Islamic."
The declaration said Darul seriously viewed allegations from intelligence agencies as well the Centre that madrasas were terror hubs. "Madrasas don't teach students to kill. They teach them to lead an Islamic life, where respect for human life is supreme," he said. The Darul declared that terror acts fell under the "shirk category of sins".
