Villagers however deny they have any connection with ISIS, stating that they do not support the self-proclaimed organization “Islamic State”.
And when it comes to the sign of the “Islamic State”, they claim that ISIS uses a sign that has already been in use for 1400 years and that it is the stamp of the prophet Muhammad s.a.w.s. They are, among others, a group and organization, including Muslims in general that use this stamp. Regarding their ideology, their’s personally and what they stand for, we do not agree with any of it. We have an attitude about them and that is what Islamic scholars have said. Our approach to the problems is that it should not be a matter for us“, said Bosnic.
Villagers of Gornja Maoca consider that they “do not represent any problem in Bosnia and Herzegovina and that the whole thing is exaggerated”.
