Bahrain Mirror: The prominent Bahraini Shiite cleric Sayed Majeed Al-Mashaal denied any positive or negative statements issued by Sheikh Isa Qassim regarding the revocation of his citizenship and its consequences.

"All the positive and negative statements circulated on different social media outlets were not given by Sheikh Isa Qassim," said Al-Mashaal.

"If his eminence wanted to issue a statement, he would deliver it clearly and bear full responsibility," he added in a statement on Sunday (July 3, 2016), stressing on "the importance of not circulating rumors and taking news only from (reliable) sources."

"Sheikh Qassim wants dignity for every Muslim and human being. He respects all people as Allah demanded," he further stated.

"It is known that Sheikh Qassim sees that advocating the truth is the duty of every human. No one is exempted from this duty," highlighted Al-Mashaal, adding that "victory is from Allah and that all Muslims have to trust in Allah's victory, take a stance that satisfies Him and always follow His guidance."

A number of social media outlets have recently published statements attributed to the Sheikh Isa Qassim.
