Al-Azhar Al-Sharif and his Grand Imam, Dr. Kutour Ahmed Al-Tayeb, on Thursday strongly condemned the terrorist attack, which he described as “abhorrent”, which took place near the Notre Dame church in the French city of Nice, killing three people and wounding others.
In an official statement, Al-Azhar stated that “there is by no means a justification for those heinous terrorist acts that are inconsistent with the tolerant teachings of Islam and all divine religions.”
Al-Azhar called for the need to work to confront all acts of violence, extremism, hatred and intolerance. The statement added that “Al-Azhar Al-Sharif, while condemning and denouncing this heinous terrorist incident, warns of escalating violence and hate speech.”
Al-Azhar called for the voice of wisdom and reason and a commitment to social responsibility to be given primacy, especially when it comes to the beliefs and souls of others.
Early Thursday, a French police source told AFP that two people, a man and a woman, died in the Notre Dame church, while a third died after being seriously injured in a nearby bar where she had taken refuge. .
The Antiterrorist Prosecutor’s Office announced the opening of an investigation into “a murder and attempted murder linked to a terrorist organization (…) and an evil terrorist criminal gang. It was entrusted to the General Administration of Internal Security.
The city’s mayor, Christian Estrozzi, said the attacker, who was detained by police, “was incessantly chanting” God is great, “explaining that President Emmanuel Macron will arrive in the city soon.
