* * *Islam does not condone suicide bombings*** *K. Abdul Majeed I Arab News* * * *JEDDAH: Aboobacker Ahmed, general-secretary of the All India Sunni Jami’athul Ulema and Jamia Markazu Ssaquafathi Ssunniyya, strongly condemned the recent attempt to assassinate Prince Muhammad bin Naif, assistant interior minister for security affairs.* * * *Aboobacker, who was in the Kingdom to perform Umrah, delivered the condemnation while speaking to journalists in Jeddah after performing Umrah on Tuesday.* * * *“Suicide bombings are unacceptable because of two reasons — they kill people unjustly and cause self-destruction, which are strictly forbidden in Islam,” said Aboobacker.* * * *He added that attacks against the rulers of a country are undoubtedly against the basic tenets of Islam. He also said that Ramadan is the month of love and peace and that the true advocates of Islam should forward a message of peace instead of barbaric attacks.* * * *“The Muslim youth should be subjected to special awareness campaigns against the dangers of getting involved in extremist and deviant ideology as part of the fight against international terror,” he said.* * * *He also stressed the importance of praying for international peace in the holy month. Answering a question about the current global recession, Aboobacker said it is clear that the modern economic system crashed because it is based on usury, which is strongly condemned by the Holy Qur’an.* * * *“Islam has put forth an economic system that is free from interest. We should make efforts for an interest-free economic system,” he added.* * * *Jamia Markazu Ssaquafathi Ssunniyya, is a socio-cultural foundation that works to provide the younger generation with Islamic and secular education. * * * *The organization has been functioning since 1978 and runs 26 institutes in Calicut, Kerala.* * * -- Musthafa K.T.
