Eighty-five Islamic scholars and institutions urge Muslim-majority countries to act on Gaza

Eighty-five Islamic scholars and institutions from the western world have called on Muslim-majority nations to take concrete action to stop the war in Gaza. The letter argues that diplomatic condemnations have failed and urges these countries to use their economic and political leverage against Israel and the United States. Specific actions demanded include cutting all diplomatic, economic, and military ties with Israel, including the Abraham Accords. The scholars also call for considering an oil and gas embargo, opening border crossings like Rafah for aid, and banning the use of their airspace for any support to Israel.
