Russia’s Jewish Communities Federation, FEOR, has sharply criticized the
Russian Council of Muftis’ Co-Chairman Nafigulla Ashirov, who called
Israel “malignant tumor” the Interfax news agency reported on Wednesday.

According to reports circulated earlier, the mufti made the statement
during a rally protesting excavation works near the Al-Aqsa mosque .

“We deem such statements absolutely unacceptable because they go
entirely against the human truth, including the Muslim truth, and
because religious leaders bear double responsibility for the words
spoken,” FEOR’s public relations director Borukh Gorin told Interfax.

In any situation, “instigating conflicts and wars is at absolute
variance with a cleric’s mission,” he said.

“Hopefully, the leaders of the country’s Muslim communities will not
leave such statements without a commentary and will distance themselves
from it,” Gorin said.
