Islamic Schools Association of Australia
The Islamic Schools Association of Australia extends its profound condolences to the victims,
with every individual and family experiencing sorrow, distress, and hardship at this deeply painful
time.
We strongly denounce the taking of innocent lives and reject violence in all its forms, including
acts driven by hatred or extremism. Such actions are fundamentally incompatible with the
principles of humanity, justice, and compassion that underpin our shared society.
We stand shoulder to shoulder with all affected communities and reaffirm our collective
commitment to peace, respect, and human dignity. The preservation of human life is sacred,
and no cause, ideology, or belief can ever justify violence against the innocent.
In these sensitive circumstances, we urge calm, unity, and measured response. We encourage
the community to seek information from reliable and authoritative sources and to refrain from
speculation or the spread of misinformation that may deepen fear or division.
Australia’s enduring strength lies in its diversity and in our capacity to come together during
times of crisis. We call on all Australians to support one another with empathy and compassion,
and to work together towards healing, understanding, and social cohesion.
Additional statements will be issued as further verified information becomes available.
