Terming such acts as individual and unrepresentative, Aga Syed Hasan clarified that no recognized Shia religious body endorses such divisive behavior. He appealed to the community to remain vigilant against provocations that aim to disrupt communal harmony.<\/p>\n<p>Aga Masroor Abbas Ansari and Aga Hadi also called for unity and understanding, invoking the legacy of revered Kashmiri Shia clerics such as Ayatollah Aga Syed Mehdi Al-Mosavi Al-Safavi (RA), Ayatollah Aga Syed Yousuf Al-Mosavi Al-Safavi (RA), and Aga Syed Mustafa Mosavi Al-Safavi (RA), who dedicated their lives to promoting intra-faith solidarity.<\/p>\n<p>Reiterating the timeless warning of Imam Khomeini (RA), the leaders stated, \u201cThose who provoke Sunnis against Shias or Shias against Sunnis serve neither community. They serve only the enemies of Islam.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>They called for sustained intra-faith dialogue and cooperation through platforms like the Anjuman Interfaith Dialogue Chapter to build bridges of trust, mutual respect, and collective resistance to oppression in the territory<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Srinagar: In Indian occupied Jammu and Kashmir, prominent Shia scholars have reiterated their firm commitment to fostering Muslim unity and resisting sectarianism, urging the Ummah to remain united in the face of divisive elements.
