Jakarta, MINA – Welcoming the holy month of Ramadan 1445 H, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) emphasized its call for Muslims to boycott products affiliated with Israel and its supporters.

“We call on Muslims to start this month of Ramadan to no longer use products produced by companies affiliated with Israel and their supporters, such as products for consumption of sahoor, breaking the fast, and Eid delivery goods (hampers) or other products,” read the statement of MUI.

The appeal was read by representatives of several Islamic organizations at the Ceremonial Event for Welcoming the Delegation of Palestinian Sheikhs and the Opening of the MUI-Baznas Ramadhan Safari, in the Buya Hamka Hall, 4th Floor, Central MUI Office Jl Proklik Jakarta on Sunday.

“Moreover, Indonesia and Palestine have signed a trade agreement regarding preferential tariffs, where there are 61 Palestinian products that enjoy 0% tariffs, including nuts, engine bolts, soap, ceramics and spices,” read the statement.
