In a new Fatwa (religious ruling), Sheikh Dr. Tahir ul-Qadri– Pakistani preacher and one of the most prominent Muslim Scholars – openly condemned terrorism, calling suicide bombers infidels who are doomed to hell.

The 59-year-old scholar addressed Muslims saying: “Terrorism is terrorism, violence is violence and it has no place in Islamic teaching and no justification can be provided for it, or any kind of excuses of ifs and buts. The world needs an absolute, unconditional, unqualified and total condemnation of terrorism."

According to British newspaper “The Independent”, the Fatwa exceeds all previous religious rulings in its condemnation for terrorism.
