TEXT OF STATEMENT
Statement of American Muslim Imams, Scholars and Community Leaders On the Ongoing Oppression of Uighur Muslims
In the Name of God, the Benevolent, the Merciful,
All praise is due to Allahﷻ and may the Creator send His blessings and salutations upon our master, Muhammadﷺ, as well as upon his family and companions.
We, imams, scholars and community leaders, hereby affirm and declare the following fundamental points:
We ask the People’s Republic of China to free Uighurs from its concentration camps, return children to their families, and restore their freedom of religion.
We call upon our neighbors of other faiths to support this demand.
We call upon fellow citizens to stop buying products produced through slave labor from these camps.
We thank the US government for raising the issue of human rights abuses and detainment in the concentration camps and ask the rest of the world to do the same.
We call upon all people to stand in solidarity with the Uighur people on April 6, 2019 in Washington DC.
Signed,
