MOGADISHU—Ahlu Sunna Waljama’a Islamic organization has condemned Wednesday the destruction of graves by al-Shabab Islamists and described as desecration of graves buried in great Sheiks.
al shabaab destroyed many graves in southern Somalia on Tuesday.
Terrorist al-shabaab Sheik Hassan Yacqub, the spokesman of the Islamist administrators in Kismayo said they will continue the destructions of graves until they eliminate what he called “graves that some people warship”.
Sheik Abdirisak Al-Ashari, a spokesperson for Ahlu Sunna Waljama’a organization in central Somalia strongly condemned the acts by the Shabab
Al-Shabab and called for the Somali people to defend them.
He said that the Islamic religion reached in Somalia its earliest times and added that al-Shabab came up with a new harsh version of Islam.
The desecration of graves was one of the main issues that forced the Sufi adherents to take up arms and fight against al-shabab.
