WASHINGTON:  The US has welcomed a “fatwa” issued by over 1,000 Indian Muslim clerics against ISIS terming the actions of the dreaded terror group as “un-Islamic and inhuman.”

“We welcome reports that Muslim community leaders and clerics in India have condemned ISIS,” State Department spokesperson Helaena White told PTI.


Such a message coming from Muslims of India, which has the second largest Muslim population of the world, is considered by the US, a key message against ISIS which in recent months has made inroads not only in the Middle-East but also expanding its influence in South Asia.

“We value the efforts to counter ISIS’s message, particularly raising awareness of the detrimental effects ISIS recruitment efforts have on youth,” Ms White said yesterday. “We welcome statements from religious and political leaders around the world denouncing ISIS and exposing its



un-Islamic nature, and encourage further sustained outreach to vulnerable populations,” Ms White added.


Over 1,050 Indian Muslim scholars and clerics have issued the fatwa against the ISIS, saying that its views were “un-Islamic and inhuman.”
