MECCA: Mufti of Saudi Arabia, Azam Sheikh Abdul Aziz Bin Abdullah delivering Khutba-e-Hajj on Sunday said Islam is against atrocious forces but does not in any case allow acts of terrorism in any of its form and manifestation.

The capitalistic system has engulfed the entire world in a severe economic and financial crisis.

He said the evil forces are at work in diverting the Muslim youth to a wrong path and all the resources are being used to unveil Muslim women.

Mufti Azam Sheikh Abdul Aziz Bin Abdullah said faith is the most precious thing for a Muslim in the entire universe because his success in this world and the world hereafter depends on it.

Muslims’ distancing from their religion and the teachings of Hazrat Muhammad (SAW) is primarily responsible for their downfall.

The religion of Islam strictly prohibits Muslims from causing pain to all even if he is a non-muslim.

The punishments under Shariah are meant to stop violence from spreading into a society.
