Ajmer Dargah Dewan Sayeed Jainul Aabedin Ali Khan has strongly condemned the terrorist attack on Amarnath pilgrims. The Dargah Dewan termed it as a cowardly act of the terrorists and an ugly blot of terrorism on Kashmiris.

The Dewan called upon Indian Muslims and Kashmiri youth to send out a precise and meaningful message to the world that Indian Muslim is a true messenger of peace and Quran by raising their voice against Pakistan vis-a-vis terrorism.

He mentioned that in Islam, violence and killing of innocent people is against Shariat and humanity. He also claimed that it is about time that everyone should come together and respond to these terrorists and terror organisations in their own language.

"It is absolutely wrong to term these kind of incidents as Islamic terrorism or Hindu terrorism because any terror organisation based on religious fanaticism should not be linked to any religious sect or section because people who indulge in terror activity cannot be connected to religion. They only make use of religion for accomplishing their selfish motives," the Dewan added.

At least seven pilgrims were killed and several injured in a dastardly attack as terrorists had attacked a bus of Amarnath pilgrims in Kashmir's Anantnag on Monday.
