President Masood said that the virus had also attracted the attention of the western intellectuals towards the golden Islamic principles and they are stressing to follow them. Therefore, he maintained, the “ulema should take its advantage and present the real Islamic teachings across the world”. “The Indian government has no strategy to respond to coronavirus in IOJK.”Thousands of Kashmiri people detained in the Indian prisons have been exposed to the deadly virus, he added. On this occasion, the ulema stressed that implementation of the Islamic teachings in letter and spirit alone was a panacea to curb the pandemic. The Muslims should avoid dishonesty, hoarding, profiteering and other evils, and beg mercy from Almighty Allah, they added.
