Sheikh Qassim: Bahraini People Remain Peaceful Within Limits Set By God

Sheikh Isa Qassim warned that the Bahraini people would not accept violations against their religious beliefs and values and would remain peaceful “within the limits” set by God.

“Our Muslim people in Bahrain are among the most conscious and insightful Islamic peoples. They will not be deceived and will not accept being wronged in their religion or their worldly affairs. They won’t have their pride and dignity violated or their faith and divine law taken from them for worldly gain,” the top Bahraini Shiite cleric said in his latest statement.

Sheikh Qassim also declared that Bahrainis won’t accept exploitation and said “every government falls in the eyes of its people […] if it fails to fulfill their rights” both in terms of their spiritual and material lives.    

“Therefore, any government that wants to please its Muslim people and achieve the slightest degree of stability, must prove in word and deed its sincerity and respect for its people in all matters of religion, the world, and honorable humanity,” Sheikh Qassim’s statement adds.
