NEW DELHI: A prominent Muslim cleric on Friday welcomed the greetings
extended by US President George W Bush on the occasion of Eid-ul-Zuha but
appealed to him to "love the Muslim community and stop cruelties" in
Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine and in its prisons. 

"I welcome the greetings extended by Bush to Muslims all over the world on
this Eid-ul-Zuha. I appeal to him to love Muslim community and stop
cruelties in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine and in their prisons," Maulana
Mufti Mohd Mukkaram, Shahi Imam of Old Delhi's Fatehpuri Masjid, said. 

He also said he supported the Palestinian cause and Iranian cause, saying
these were not against any country. 

The cleric's comments came while addressing the faithful at the Masjid
during special prayers on the occasion of Eid. 

In his message on Wednesday, Bush said he and his wife Laura were sending
their best wishes to all Muslims across the world for a "memorable
celebration". "This holiday helps ensure the important values of compassion
and devotion are passed on to future generations," the US President said. 

Mukkaram also welcomed Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's 15-point programme
for the minorities and demanded the immediate implementation of the Sachar
committee report. 

The cleric said the recommendations of the Srikrishna Commission, which
looked into the riots in Mumbai soon after the Babri Masjid demolition,
should be implemented soon. 

He also demanded that adequate compensation be given to all victims of the
1984 anti-Sikh riots.
