Speaking at the 2nd Bangsamoro Ulama Conference at Robinsons Hall, Al Nor Complex, Al Haj Muard said, “If you look at what is happening in the Muslim world now, the entire Muslim world is ruined because of this (terror) activities.”

Al Haj Murad said that their position relative to these immoral activities is anchored on the verses of Qur’an, and Sunnah of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) that place highest value on human life, and categorically prohibits terroristic activities specially when directed to innocent people.

Chairman Al Haj Murad urged the public to be vigilant and exercise caution without disrupting the normal flow of life of the people that, he said, is what the terrorists would like to see to create havoc in the life of innocent people.
