DUBAI: Egypt’s Al-Azhar, the Sunni Muslim world’s foremost Islamic institution, has commended the joint move of Egypt, , United Arab Emirates and Bahrain to isolate their Arab neighbor, Qatar, over accusations of supporting terror and backing Iran.
In a Tuesday statement, Al-Azhar says it backs the move. It also calls for Arab nations to double their efforts against what it described as “malicious attempts” by some regimes that pose a threat to regional security.
Al-Azhar’s statement comes one day after the four Arab countries severed diplomatic ties with Qatar and cut their air, sea and land links to the tiny but resource-rich country.
