In his recent sermon Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the leading Sunni Muslim scholar, demanded the Arab countries to impose political and economic boycott Tehran and Moscow due to their support for Damascus.

He also called on pilgrims to pray for topple of Bashar al Assad, elimination of Syrian army, Iran, Hezbollah, China and Russia.

 

“Russia has become the first enemy of Islam and Muslims because it has stood against the Syrian people; more than 30,000 Syrians have been killed by the weapons supplied by Russia,” al-Qaradawi said.

 

He pointed out that Syrian regime was killing people with the military aircraft supplied by Russia. He said the stand of Russia and China at the UN Security Council was against the cause of the Syrian people. Yet, Russia went further by supplying the regime with lethal weapons.
