Prime Minister Tammam Salam reiterated on Tuesday the efforts to support moderation and to confront the acts of terrorism that are “harming the image of the Islam.”

“We will continue to support moderation and confront terrorism that is tarnishing the image of Islam,” said Salam marking the Prophet's Birthday and after meeting Grand Mufti Abdul Latif Daryan at Dar al-Fatwa.

“We hope that the efforts of the Grand Mufti continue to succeed in confronting everything that is hampering the path of Islam and Muslims,” he added.

For his part, Daryan said: “We have to confront the damage that the extremists want to inflict on our religion.”

He concluded by saying: “We will not back down on coexistence no matter what the conditions are because we are one nation with one fate.”
