In the Name of Allah

Your Excellency, Pope Francis the Leader of the Catholics of the world

With Greetings

Recently some Vatican officials asked the Islamic scholars to express their opinions regarding the barbaric attacks by Takfiri ISIL group against the Christians and other religious minorities in northern Iraq.

Your Excellency also sent a message to the Secretary General of the United Nations and asked him to use all his powers to prevent the violence against the Christians and religious minorities

I welcome your suggestion and also consider as necessary the cooperation between the religious leaders of the world and strongly condemn these barbaric attacks whilst asking the Muslims of the world to condemn such inhumane crimes and wish to put forward 2 points in this regard.

1.TheTakfiri groups today are the biggest danger to humanity, irrespective of their religion and nationalities. I have been warning this for many years. In my meeting with the respected Head of the Vatican Papal Council three years ago, I pointed to the danger of the Takfiri groups and told him: It is not a week that I do not condemn these extremistsin my talks.The actions of suchextremist minoritiesshould not accounted as Islamic acts; as stressed in the holy Quran, the Prophet of Islam (saww) is mercy for all the human beings of the world

However many of the political and religious leaders of the world unfortunately not only remained silent but supported them practically.

if it was not for the financial and military supports of some western countries as well as their regional puppets, ISIL and other similar groups could not have survived and continued with the widespread killings and crimes.

2.I also expect Vatican’s position in your time to be expressed in more transparent and clear manner regarding the oppressions and catastrophes carried out in different names, be it against Christian minorities in Islamic countries or Islamic minorities in the western countries and similar cases.

I ask the Almighty success for you and your colleagues.
