In its statement today, the Muslim Council of Elders said that, under the presidency of Prof. Dr. Ahmed Al Tayeb, Grand Imam of al-Azhar, it is following with great attention the developments witnessed by the Arab region during the past few days regarding the unfortunate Qatari stance which surprised everyone while bringing sadness, sorrow and pain, WAM reported.

The Council warned the Qatari regime about the dangers of being isolated, supporting terrorism and extremism groups and promoting policies that endanger the region and compromise its security.

In its statement, the Council called on the conscience of Qatari officials to sense their responsibilities to Allah Almighty and their people, and their historical accountability. (T/RS5/RS1)
