The Russian Association of Islamic
Accord, which is also known as the All-Russian Muslim Board, has called on Egyptians
to protect the country's Christian population.
Mufti Farid Salman, head of the
Ulema Council of the association, called on the Egyptian Muslim population to
maintain the safety of churches in the country, to protect Muslim and Christian
clergy and to "severely punish the extremists who sowed the seeds of chaos
and revolt," according to Interfax independent news group.
"It is unacceptable to tolerate
the continuation of this orgy of Saran followers, who have burned down several
dozens of churches and have looted monasteries in the past few days in an
attempt to further fan the flames of this fratricidal war, cease the efforts of
those to desecrate, destroy and loot numerous mosques and madrasahs [religious
schools]," the mufti continued in a statement.
He accused the Muslim Brotherhood of
using religious language to "open the gates of chaos and disasters."
He said the recent violence in the modern histories of Syria, the Palestinian
territories; Sudan, Libya, Tunisia and Egypt all demonstrate the destructive
impact of the Brotherhood on societies.
Salman added he hopes the
Brotherhood is never removed from Russia's list of banned organizations.
The mufti pointed out that Copts
once "opened the gates of Egypt to Islam and Muslims," and thus Allah
ordered Muslims to be a vanguard for the country and its people.
