Islam Times - Al Wefaq denounces negative religious narrative

Islam Times - Al Wefaq National Islamic Society issued a statement about the insults published in the quasi-State press on Tuesday. Al Wefaq said the reckless and irresponsible rhetoric adopted by the Authority has opened the way for attacks against sacred figures of Islam.

Al Wefaq considers the insult against Imam Mahdi, the grandson of the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH), an insult against all Muslims. Such insults indicate the absence of law and the judiciary’s lack of neutrality.

The newspaper that published the insulting article is owned by the head of Government, and so the regime is fully responsible for this provocation. This behaviour imposes an urgent necessity for a clean, responsible and uniting government that respects all religions and sects.

Bahrain Shia community expressed profound and anger and disappointment toward the state.
