(Greek City Times) The Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) has released a statement condemning Turkey’s conversion of Hagia Sophia into a mosque.
ISNA says that the Quran states that it [is] against their religious beliefs to desecrate a Christian place of worship and to “demolish places of worship and convert them into something else.”
Dr. Sayyid M. Syeed, president of the board of directors of ISNA, a national umbrella organization which has more than 300 affiliates across the United States and Canada, wrote a full statement as following:
“We need to work together to convince President Erdogan not to convert Hagia Sophia into a mosque in Istanbul.”
