Global Imams Council condemns Hamas for execution of hostages

The Jerusalem Post reports: “The Global Imams Council has released a statement condemning the murder of hostages at the hands of Hamas terrorists.

The statement, which was released on the Global Imams Council’s X (previously Twitter) social media account on Sunday, September 1, 2024, referred to the actions of Hamas as ‘barbaric,’ stating, ‘We are deeply saddened and outraged by these heinous murders, which violate all principles of humanity, religious teachings, and international law.’

The Global Imams Council acknowledged that the targeting of civilians not only violates the laws of Islam, but the Geneva Conventions as well.

The statement, issued at the Islamic Seminary of Najaf in Iraq, held Hamas alone responsible for ‘the deaths and suffering of all innocent lives lost since October 7, as their actions have not only brought death and destruction upon the region but have also led to immense suffering for the Palestinian people.’…”
