The Ahmadiyya Muslim community of Ireland offers their deepest condolences to the people and Government of France after the barbaric attacks in Paris yesterday.

The victims, their families and the French nation were in the prayers of the members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community, said Ibrahim Ahmad Noonan, Imam of Galway's Maryam Mosque.

According to the official statement issued by the organization's press desk in Ireland, the community stands shoulder to shoulder with the civilized world in condemning the attacks. "This unprecedented attack on different locations, targeting innocent people of France is against everything Islam stands for."

The community's headquarters in London has also issued a statement, it was asserted.

Leader of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Hadhrat Mirza Masroor Ahamd in a message stated,

“On behalf of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community worldwide, I express my heartfelt sympathies and condolences to the French nation, its people and government following the heinous terrorist attacks that have taken place in Paris. This brutal and inhumane attack can only be condemned in the strongest possible terms.

I would also like to reiterate that all forms of terrorism and extremism are completely against the true teachings of Islam. The Holy Quran has said that to kill even one innocent person is akin to killing all of mankind. Thus under no circumstances can murder ever be justified and those who seek to justify their hateful acts in the name of Islam are serving only to defame it in the worst possible way.

Our sympathies and prayers are with the victims of these attacks and all those who have been left bereaved or affected in any way. May God Almighty grant patience to them all and I hope and pray that the perpetrators of this evil act are swiftly brought to justice”.

Dr. M Anwar Malik, National President of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Ireland, mirroring the sentiments of the members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Ireland, states that he is “shocked about the atrocities and killing of innocent people”.

Ahmadiyya Muslim youth of Ireland presented flowers to Catherine Gagneux, the French Honorary Consul for Galway and expressed their outrage over the brutal killings of innocent people.
