In a condolence message sent to the Islamic Movment in Nigeria on 26 of July, 2014, by the Ahlulbait Foundation of South Africa as signed by its National Coordinator, Syed Aftab Haider, the organisation condemns the brutal attack and killing of Muslims by Nigerian security forces.
The message reads as follows: "Ahlul Bait Foundation of South Africa condemns in strongest terms the brutal attack and aggression by Nigerian Security Forces on peaceful demonstration of Al Quds Day in Zaria, Nigeria.
In this attack 15 Muslim brothers and Sisters were martyred including three Sons of Shaikh Zakzaky, Leader of The Islamic Movement of Nigeria.
On this sad occasion and tragic time, We offer our heartfelt condolences to Imam Mehdi (as), Leadership of Ummah, respected & bereaved Family of Sh Zakzaky and other Shohada and all the muslims and in particular followers of Ahlul bait(as) in Nigeria.
Indeed blood of these innocent martyrs shall not go in vain and bring us closer to Freedom of Palestine and Libration of Al Quds Ashareef."
