By His Name, The Most High
All praise is due to Allah Lord of the worlds and peace and blessings be upon Mohammad and his pure progeny.
Imam Ali Foundation, a Shia’ organization based in London, strongly condemns the explosions that occurred here this morning, which led to tens of innocent victims being killed and wounded.
We sympathize with the families of the victims and convey our condolences to them. We consider this abhorrent act to be among the worst kind of crimes, which Islam and Muslims are innocent of, and, we condemn it in the strongest possible way. We trust the British government will take appropriate steps to protect Muslims from those who do not differentiate between Muslims and terrorists.
We call upon Muslim, Christian and other religious leaders to condemn this horrible act and to preserve the harmony and unity in this society. We ask the Almighty to protect mankind from the evil of terrorism and terrorists and to avert all forms of tragedies from befalling on this country. Allah is All Hearing and (He) Answers Prayers.
