A group of religious scholars convened at Kabul University, where they underscored that Afghanistan’s territory must not be used to threaten or harm any other nation.

According to the statement of the gathering, obtained by Ariana News, all Muslims are obligated to refrain from using Afghan soil against another country. The document states that if this principle is violated, the Islamic Emirate has the authority to take necessary action.

Participants further highlighted that the leader of the Islamic Emirate has explicitly prohibited citizens from traveling abroad for military purposes, and that the authorities will prevent individuals from engaging in such activities.

The resolution also emphasized that if Afghanistan comes under attack, defending the country’s system, territory, and values becomes an individual duty for every Afghan—a defense that would be considered Jihad.

This gathering comes amid an unprecedented escalation in tensions between Afghanistan and Pakistan over security-related issues.
