OIC
The Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) has urged the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to hold an emergency session to resolve the recent Gulf diplomatic crisis after several Middle East nations cut diplomatic ties with Qatar, Antara news agency reported.
"We urge the Indonesian government to take action and call for holding an emergency session of the OKI in order to avoid division and war," Head of the MUI Advisory Board Din Syamsuddin stated at the MUI Headquarters in Jakarta, Wednesday.
He further noted that this particular measure is important, as the OKI needs to play its role as a mediator in the dispute.
However, he believed that it would be better if the conflict can be settled internally by involving the Gulf Cooperation Council.
The MUI also expressed deep concern over the current tension in the Middle East and its potential to spread slander that can jeopardize global unity and the Islamic civilization.
He highlighted the importance of the OKI to understand the most recent developments that have resulted in a peace and security crisis in Islamic countries in the Middle East, especially with regard to the tension between Qatar and Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait that could potentially spark war between Islamic countries.
Syamsuddin expressed concerns over the tension that could also be exploited by anti-Islamic political powers, which can lead to losses and sufferings to Muslims in other parts of the world. (Masdar)
