At ICNA National, our Islamic values of Justice and Equality foster a deep love and admiration for Dr. Martin Luther King Junior, who has paved the way for Black and People of Color in America to demand better for ourselves and our children
*Statement from the Islamic Circle of North America.*
ICNA is greatly disturbed by the hostage situation currently unfolding at the Synagogue of Congregation Beth Israel in Colleyville, Texas. We have learned that negotiations are underway to release these hostages. We hope and pray that the situation is resolved safely and with no casualties.
As a faith-based representative Islamic organization, ICNA strongly reaffirms that Islam never condones such a crime - it is morally, religiously and ethically unacceptable.
We stand together with the Jewish community to combat such acts of terror that discriminate against color, race or religion. Unfortunately, we are at a time when our national discourse has become extremely polarized. We ask for the community to let law enforcement do their work to get to the bottom of this unfortunate incident.
