The Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama'at Fiji's national secretary Aleem Shah expressed deep sorrow and sadness at the act of terrorism in Golan Heights where 45 Fijian soldiers are held in captivity by the al-Qaida affiliated group al-Nusra..

Mr Shah said the formation of terrorist groups such as al-Nusra, taking peacekeepers as hostage and killing innocent people was not condoned by Islam.

He said it was neither the teaching of Islam as preached and practised by the Prophet Muhammad.

"All the members of Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama'at Fiji are reminded to pray for the safety of our countrymen in their daily prayers," he said.

Mr Shah said a special prayer session would be held by the Ahmadiyya Muslim community at the Mahmood Mosque in Maro, Sigatoka, on Sunday.

"There is no doubt that our peacekeepers of the Republic of Fiji Military Forces are one of the best in peacekeeping duties which is acknowledged by the UN and the citizens of countries in which our soldiers have provided peacekeeping services," he said.
