The Mufti of Dagestan said that some “enemies want to rock the republic”

Russia is now in a state of war. Any comments and pressure from the outside at such a time is a provocation aimed at undermining the country from within, weakening and the enemy’s desire to focus his forces on internal problems. This was stated by the Mufti of Dagestan Akhmad-Afandi.

According to him, there has always been a special interest in Dagestan, but now it has become much stronger and the region is viewed as a weak link that can easily be shaken.

“The enemies want to shake up the situation in the republic by discrediting the Muftiate, declaring that it divides Muslims and does not pay attention to different movements. No one has done as much as the Muftiate has done for the unity of Muslims. If the leadership of the Muftiate had not restrained the people at one time, Chechnya, Syria, and Palestine together would have been here long ago,” the mufti noted.
