    Iraq’s Senior Shia Clerics Prohibit Arab-Kurdish War

    ERBIL, Kurdistan Region – As many Iraqis worry about a possible war between Iraqi troops and Kurdish Peshmerga fighters in the disputed northern territories, the country’s senior Shia clerics have issued religious prohibitions against such a conflict.

    The latest reaction came on Wednesday from the Najaf Hawza, the prominent Shia religious institution, which issued a fatwa saying that, “Fighting the Kurds is haram (religiously prohibited).”

    “Those Iraqi soldiers who die in battle against the Kurds are not considered martyrs,” the Hawza said in a statement.

    Iraq’s Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki ignited tensions by sending in his controversial Dijla forces into the northern disputed territories that are also claimed by the Kurds. The autonomous Kurdistan Regional Government dispatched thousands of its own Peshmerga forces into the territories, setting off a tense stand-off that has endured for weeks.

    The Najaf statement accused Maliki of driving Iraq toward war for personal gain. “This war will not serve the Iraqis,” it said.

    Maliki, himself a Shia leader from the Dawa Party, has received a lot of criticism from the country’s Shia clerics, among them Muqtada al-Sadr, the founder of the Mahdi Army.

    The clerics said on Wednesday that the prime minister has not consulted the prominent Shia leaders about his recent actions, and that only a small circle of people around him are aware of his decisions.

    The Najaf Hawza’s statement mentions a letter received from the father of a soldier who has been sent to the disputed territories.

    “In the letter, the father asked us whether his son would be considered a martyr if he died in battle against the Kurds,” the statement said. It added that the response of senior clerics was that he would not be considered a martyr.

    In another part of the statement, the Shia religious institution said that Maliki has failed in his post as prime minister and should step down.

    “Maliki has not yet been able to improve the security situation in Iraq,” it said. “As prime minister and commander-in-chief, he failed to carry out this task and therefore must step down.”

    In restructuring the army and forming the Dijla Operations Command, the prime minister has reinstated a number of high-ranking officers from the former Iraqi army, causing a stir among both Kurdish and Shia officials.

    “We will never forget Maliki’s initiative to create a committee in order to return Saddam’s followers to power,” said the Najaf statement.

    Also last week, Hussein al-Sadr, a senior Shia cleric, sent a letter to Kurdistan Region President Massoud Barzani, saying that several Shia clerics, including himself, had issued a fatwa that prohibited fighting the Kurds.

    Meanwhile, the office of Ali Sistani, Iraq’s grand Ayatollah, called on Maliki, “To be patient and stay away from a war that could only harm the Iraqis.”

    President Massoud Barzani applauded Sistani for his statement, saying, “History has repeated itself,” a reference to existing bonds between Iraq’s Kurdish and Shia populations.

    Meanwhile, in response to a comment by Maliki that Arabs and Kurds were on the brink of war, President Barzani said on Wednesday: “We don’t want war, but we are ready to protect our nation and our region.”
