Hezbollah issued a statement on Thursday condemning the terrorist attack that targeted Al-Iman mosque in Damascus killing Sheikh Mohammad Ramadan Al-Bouti and dozens of worshipers.

“The criminals’ crime has magnified and exceeded all limits, until it laid its hand on the men of Allah, His loved ones, and worshipers in His mosques, targeting elite scholars and elite students with black, savage terror that neither respected a sanctity, nor a conscience,” the statement said.

Hezbollah considered that “the heinous terror crime that targeted Al-Iman mosque near the Syrian capital, Damascus, and which violated the sacredness of the house of Allah, His book, the scholars and workers for the sake of Allah, on top of which was the great scholar, dr. and sheikh Mohammad Saeed Al-Bouti, along with tens of worshipers, is a crime that exceeded all limits of outrageousness, a crime against humanity, religions, morals, Islam and Muslims.”

“The terror groups, which planned for this brutal attack and worked on implementing it, do not  belong to any religion, and are immoral, even if they claim they belong to Islam and wear Islamic dresses,” it added.

From here, Hezbollah condemned the “hostile act, which has a tripartite target, the mosques, scholars, and innocent worshipers,” and urged the Syrian people for “higher awareness of the reality and background of the conflict in their country”.

The Lebanese Islamic Resistance further called upon the Syrian people to “stand in one rank in confrontation of sedition, Takfir, and the destruction of their country and nation.”

In conclusion, Hezbollah offered “it’s sincere condolences to the family of the great martyr, the families of the faithful martyrs killed with him,  and the bereaved Syrian leadership, scholars, and people…”
