RIYADH – A leading ulama' in Saudi Arabia appeared in a television show in the state-owned television in Libya on Monday (25/7/2011) to proclaim a fatwa that urged the rebels to immediately lay down their weapons and make a peaceful reconciliation with the regime of Muammar Gaddafi, reported by Emirates 247.
Hamoud bin Nafei Al Anzi, an imam in the main city of the Saudi, Alasiah, stated that some of the leading scholars in the Arab region have made an emergency decision which is inverse to their decision when they approved the resistance against Gaddafi on the first days after the fighting began to break in the North African country five months ago. Al Anzi, who visited Tripoli to meet with the camp of Gaddafi said that he was in Libya for personal purposes and he does not represent the views of the government of Saudi Arabia.
“I've been to many places that were bombed by the Crusader forces (NATO) in Libya… these crusader forces are only killing the people of Libya indiscriminately and wanting to destroy the country,” he said in a press covered by the Libyan television. “I appeal to all ulama's and scholars to issue a fatwa for those who fight against the government and their own people, to lay down arms and join with their brothers at the negotiating table if you (the rebels) really have the demands. Do not take up arms to settle disputes. I admit there was an error but the error should not be handled by an even bigger mistake. By Allaah, stop the bloodshed.”
Al Anzi is the first Arab ulama' to make a public appearance and have the courage to give support to Gaddafi. “I see people who do not have legs and arms, their eyes became blind. This can not be justified. In opposing the government, we do not need to bring outsiders. The Islamic State forbids this. I appeal to all the citizens of Libya to stop fighting, talk to each other, as well as no longer relying on the crusaders,” he added.
“I am only urging my brothers in Saudi Arabia and other Islamic countries to issue a fatwa now to prohibit the fighting and bloodshed.” (arrahmah.com)
