Statement regarding the terrorists act in Taba
The Islamic Academy of research held an urgent meeting presided by the Grand Imam of Al Azhar doctor Mohamed Sayed Tantawi on the 25th of Sha'ban 1425 the 9th of Ocober 2004:
The Islamic Academy of research declines the evil attack that was done by the corrupters on earth on the innocent people in Taba and its surroundings in southern Sinai which lead to the killing of the innocent Egyptians and others and to the ruining of the buildings and properties.
Islam is innocent from those who committed these awfull crimes, and the proper human mind rejects them and declines their crimes. "And soon will the unjust assailants know what vicissitudes their affairs will take" ( Surat Al Shua' araaa verse 227)
