In an official statement issued on
August 15, 2013 the Khalifatullah Hadhrat Munir Ahmad Azim Sahib (atba) of Mauritius
expresses deep concern at the on-going military strife in Egypt which has
imperilled a democratically elected government and has unleashed bloodshed on
the streets and calls upon the international community to stand up for “justice
and peace, not injustice and chaos” in these troubled times.
Read the Official Statement below:
As the Khalifatullah of this era and the head of the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam International, I condemn any coup d’état
in Egypt – following the clashes between the military and supporters of the
ousted President Mohamed Morsi – which have already caused over 2200 deaths and
over 10,000 wounded. I strongly condemn the violence in Egypt. As a spiritual
leader I believe in democratic values and condemn any such type of revolution.
Indeed Mr. Mohamed Morsi was democratically elected.
The interim president appointed by
the anti-Morsi, Adly Mansour declared a state of emergency two weeks ago which
will extend over a period of one month and it follows the bloodshed that took
place after the intervention of forces to dislodge the pro-Morsi Islamist
protesters of Cairo.
The Acting President did not fail to
say that he specifically instructed the armed forces in cooperation with the
police to take all necessary measures to maintain security and order and protect
public and private property of the citizens. These actions were strongly
condemned by the international community. The United States has even decided to
get tough and even brandished the threat to revise its annual aid of $ 1.55
billion that it usually gives to Egypt. Much of the budget is usually devoted
to the Egyptian military.
I ask the Mauritian government and
all governments around the world to take a strong stand against the military
coup and publicize this position internationally.
I also condemn the silence of the UN
and international opinion which would have acted if such an event would have
occurred in Africa or in Latino America. Mr. Mohamed Morsi must not only be
released but also regain his presidential status. I also condemn the massacre
which took place on 14 August, causing 1000 deaths and thousands injured.
I want to raise everyone’s awareness
about the “double standard” of the U.S. authorities and ask the Mauritian
population not to support their actions. If the spoken language is democratic,
then the action must also be democratic. The Egyptian people elected a man, its
worldly representative, then why the world insists on closing the mouth of
democracy in Egypt? Democracy is not restricted to a country, but is for all
countries that promotes freedom of expression and the human rights of their
citizens. If the Egyptian people decided who will be its president, then the
world should respect its decision. How the U.S. would feel if after electing
its man to hold seat in government, a coup d’état is done by an external or
even internal group and steals its sovereignty from the hands of the Americans to
choose whom they want to elect?
Then the citizens of Mauritius,
U.S., Egypt and the world must think before it is too late for the culprits and
their associates. Humanitarian aid is an act of kindness for God and for peace
between countries, not to make slaves and victims of blackmail! If the
intention is dirty, then the consequences of the guilty will be very serious. Give
up, O ye guilty to scheming to control the world your way. Guard the part of
the territories that were given to you for a limited time. Do not go beyond
limit for then the wrath of God will come upon you.
America and the American President
are moving beyond the bounds in their thoughts and actions. If the malicious
thinks he will be safe, then let him remove from the head this idea for soon
the Almighty God of heaven and earth will seize him and shall inflict upon him
the punishment he deserves. Then, O you who are gifted with two eyes and two
ears, do justice and peace, not injustice and chaos. You are only temporary on
this earth, and one day will come when you will be back before the Creator to
make specific and severe accounts on your stupid and selfish and satanic
thoughts, such thoughts that prevent you from restoring peace between your brothers
of the human race, wherever they are.
