The state-run satellite TV channel of Iran, Press TV, conducted an interview with Shaikh Abdol-Hamid Isma’eelzahi on the topic of “Takfir and extremism” in Islam few days ago.
In the report, Press TV linked the words of Shaikh Abdol-Hamid with the ongoing civil war in Syria.
The TV quoted Shaikh untruly as saying: “Molavi Abdolhamid Ismaeelzahi described the militants fighting against the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad as “extremist deviants.””
The office of the member of the International Union for Muslim Scholars urged that he never mentioned the name of Syria in his interview.
According to the office, the comments of Shaikh Abdol-Hamid were generally about the phenomena of Takfir in the history of Islam among the both Shia and Sunni sects. He talked about “extremism” in the Muslim world without any allusion to any particular country.
The office expressed its deep regret as a state-run TV channel of the ‘Islamic Republic of Iran’ falsifies reports and links the words of respectable and responsible individulas to what it desires.
“All media sources are supposed to avoid irresponsible reporting and falsified stories as the principles of media suggest,” the statement adds.
The video of Shaikh Abdol-Hamid’s interview is available; soon the viewers can watch the real words of him on his website.
