The Muslim Association of the Lehigh Valley, in conjunction with Muslim organization and scholars in the United States and throughout the world, condemn the Islamic State for the actions they have committed.

Muslims view the actions of IS as inhuman and un-Islamic, stating that no religion condones the murder of children or the desecration of houses of worship. The MALC condemns the action of IS and rejects the claim that all Muslims are required to pay allegiance to its leader.
