Increase in suicides linked to ignorance, says Kanthapuram

Kozhikode: Kanthapuram AP Aboobacker Musliyar, General Secretary of Samastha Kerala Jamiatul Ulama, has attributed the rising rates of suicides and divorces to ignorance among individuals. Speaking at the Mudaris conference organised as part of Samastha's 100th anniversary celebrations, he highlighted the global increase in immoral activities due to a shortage of scholars in the world.
