Your Excellency,
We
received the news of the criminal attacks carried out in London on the 7th of
July 2005, by sinful hands that bear no regard whatsoever for the sacredness of
human life, religious values or decency.
In
our capacity as co-presidents of the Islamic – Catholic Liaison Committee,
we wish to express our utter disgust and outright condemnation of these cowardly
acts and the aggressive hatred that the perpetrators have shown towards
their fellow humane beings. We have little doubt that these criminals
have lost all sense of human values, including notions of mercy, security and
peace, have revolted against religious ethics and principles, and have thus
declared war against God Almighty Himself.
Truly,
such blind violence has grieved us and has made our hearts ache, since it is a
shameful violation of the sacredness of God Almighty, His everlasting message
and sublime teachings, which all
affirm the inviolability of human life and the prime importance of
peace and security for all human societies.
Respected
Prime Minister, please accept our sincere condolence and heartfelt sympathy that
we extend to the families, relatives and colleagues of the victims and to the
entire British people.
