JAKARTA - Political and Islamic leaders expressed their disgust at the deadly shooting at two mosques in New Zealand on Friday, with some citing rising “Islamophobia” as responsible.
“I blame these increasing terror attacks on the current Islamophobia post-9/11 1.3 billion Muslims have collectively been blamed for any act of terror,” Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan posted on social media. In a statement, Al-Azhar University, Egypt’s 1,000-year-old seat of Sunni Islamic learning, said the attacks had “violated the sanctity of the houses of God”.
A city of about 400,000 people, Christchurch has a significant Islamic community, including overseas students. “I can’t even imagine what would have happened if they were there five minutes earlier,” he said on social media.Ordinary people expressed their horror about a live, point-of-view video posted online that appeared to be one of the shooters killing any person he came across in a mosque with an automatic assault rifle.
