SHURA COUNCIL STATEMENT

ON PARIS ATTACKS

November 16, 2015:

The Islamic Shura Council laments the senseless violence and loss of life in Paris and earlier in Beirut and Turkey among other places. We join Muslims and people of all faiths and conscience from across America and across the world in condemning senseless violence against innocent people.

The Islamic Shura Council extends its sympathies and prayers to all of those who perished or are injured, and we ask God Almighty to ease the pain and suffering of all the innocent people everywhere. The Shura Council has also sent a formal note of solidarity and prayers to the Consul General of France in Los Angeles and will be visiting him shortly.

The following statements are from some of the Muslim organizations across America and other countries, in support and solidarity with all of the innocent victims and against the senseless violence.
