New Delhi: Taking cognisance over the comments passed by a BJP leader against Prophet Mohammad, terrorist organisation Al Qaeda threatened to attack the major cities of the country.
According to a statement issued by the banned organisation, "A few days ago, the propagators and flag bearers of Hindutva, a system and philosophy hostile to the religion and Shariah of Allah, insulted and slandered the purest of beings, the most honourable after God Himself, Muhammad al Mustafa, Ahmad al Mujtaba and his noble and pure wife, the mother of the believers, Sayyidah Ayesha bint Abu Bakr as Siddeeq in the most vile and evil manner on an Indian TV channel.
"In response to this affront, the hearts of Muslims all over the world are bleeding and filled with the feelings of revenge and retribution.
"We want to tell every audacious and impudent foul mouth of the world, especially the Hindutva terrorists occupying India that we shall fight for the dignity of our Prophet, we shall urge others to fight and die for the honour of our Prophet, we shall kill those who affront our Prophet and we shall bind explosives with our bodies and the bodies of our children to blow away the ranks of those who dare to dishonour our Prophet.
"The offenders of Prophet Muhammad, the pride of humanity, shall find no amnesty or clemency, no peace and security will save them and this matter shall not close with any words of condemnation or sorrow.
"We say with the help of Allah the Almighty, the Saffron terrorists should now await their end in Delhi, Mumbai, Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat. They shall find refuge neither in their homes nor in their fortified army cantonments. May our mothers be bereaved of us, if we do not avenge our beloved Prophet," it added.
Recently, national spokesperson of Bharatiya Janata Party Nupur Sharma, while participating in a debate on a news channel, had made some derogatory comments against Prophet Hazrat Muhammad.
She was later suspended by BJP, after her comments on Prophet Muhammad set off a huge international backlash. (UNI)
