flag Sydney's religious leaders denied funeral rites to Bondi Beach attack perpetrators, rejecting their martyrdom and affirming terrorism violates Islam.

flag Religious leaders in Sydney have refused to conduct funeral rites for the perpetrators of a terrorist attack on Bondi Beach, rejecting the idea that such individuals could be considered martyrs. flag The decision, widely praised, emphasizes that terrorism violates Islamic teachings and denies extremists any spiritual legitimacy. flag By withholding burial rituals, which symbolize a believer’s honorable status, the leaders aim to dismantle the narrative that violence leads to paradise. flag The move stands in contrast to more ambiguous responses seen in some European nations and underscores that terrorism is a crime, not a religious act.
