This stance reflects Al-Azhar’s commitment to the principles of peace and the protection of civilians, as it views any aggression against other nations as a violation of international law and humanitarian principles. In this regard, Al-Azhar emphasizes the importance of developing the foundations for dialogue instead of military escalation.

Rejection of Aggression and the Need to Protect Civilians

Al-Azhar Al-Sharif, led by Grand Imam Dr. Ahmed Al-Tayeb, condemned the unjustifiable Iranian aggression targeting the United Arab Emirates. In a statement issued on Tuesday, Al-Azhar reaffirmed its firm rejection of all forms of attacks aimed at civilians and economic facilities. It considered such attacks a threat to national security and the stability of nations.

Call for Respecting Sovereignty of Nations

In its statement, Al-Azhar Al-Sharif declared that targeting civilian and economic facilities constitutes a grave violation of international law and is impermissible by Sharia. Al-Azhar emphasized the necessity of respecting the sovereignty of nations, urging the international community to take a firm stance against such aggressions. Al-Azhar’s position supports the right of nations to defend themselves and the need to prevent any powers from threatening their safety.

Call for Dialogue and Ceasefire

Al-Azhar called for an immediate cessation of attacks and an end to the terrorizing of civilians. It also urged adherence to the principles of good neighborliness and an immediate ceasefire. From its vision for a peaceful resolution of conflicts, Al-Azhar affirmed that dialogue and understanding should be the primary means for addressing disputes, away from any escalation that could lead to further tensions.

As a beacon of knowledge and dialogue, Al-Azhar expresses the importance of promoting humanitarian values and thwarting the efforts of those who seek to spread chaos. Thus, wise and rational discourse is the only path to achieving peace and stability in the region.
