Salafis bring tension in Sumgait Mosque

Tension around the "Juma Mosque" in Sumgait was  eliminated as a result of measures taken by the State Committee for Work with Religious  Structures (SCWRS) reads the information of this structure. 

At the end of last week, the followers of the Salafist currents of Islam began to come to the mosque  to chose  their  imam. This caused indignation among traditional community  of the mosque. However, the Salafis have continued to go to the mosque  and prayed  separately.

The problem was eliminated with the participation of representatives of SCWRS, executive and law enforcement agencies of the city, without administrative intervention.

SCWRS, recognizing the rights of believers to freely perform religious rites, notes that holiday, the Friday prayers and other collective namaz  must be committed by  Akhunds, appointed by the Caucasian Muslim  Board.—16D06-
