Rabat, 14 Shaban 1436/1 June 2015 (MINA) – Director General of the Islamic Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ISESCO) Dr Abdulaziz Othman Altwaijri strongly condemned the terrorist bombing at a mosque in Nigeria’s northeastern city of Maiduguri, the capital of the Borno state.

The explosive was detonated inside the mosque next to the Monday Market of Maiduguri during the afternoon (Asr) prayers on Saturday, killing scores of worshippers and injuring several others, International Islamic News Agency (IINA) quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting.

“This terrorist and criminal act cannot be committed by a Muslim who believes in Islam and knows its message of tolerance, but it is rather an act of misguided criminals, violators of the teachings of Islam and the mischief makers in the earth,” Altwaijri said in a statement.

He stressed the ISESCO’s solidarity with Nigeria in the face of terrorism, which targeted the security and safety of its citizens, calling on the international community to intensify efforts to eradicate terrorism from its roots and protect the world from its evils. (T/P011/R03)
