"The claim to establish Islam by killing judges, blasting bombs in Chittagong and Gazipur is nothing but a design to confuse the people," said Peer of Chormonai and Ameer of Islami Shashantantra Andolon Maulana Sayed Mohammad Fazlul Karim here yesterday.

Addressing a rally at the North Gate of Baitul Mokarram National Mosque, he said the perpetrators of these bomb attacks have been putting the real Islamic movement and Islamic education as well as the Ulemas under controversy.

The peer of Chormonai dubbed the bombers as the enemies of humanity and the country and called upon the people from all walks of life to forge a greater unity against these elements in the greater national interest.

Chairman of Islami Oikkyo Jote Alhaj Misbahur Rahman Chowdhury said, killing innocent people and terrorising the country in the name of Islam cannot be called jihad.

"The bombers can be dubbed either as the cold-blooded murderers, insane or heinous criminals in the eyes of Islam," he said while speaking as the chief guest at a seminar organised by Islami Jubo Jote at Motijheel area in the city.
