Militant commander Zakir Musa, who recently severed ties with the Hizbul Mujahideen to fight for the establishment of an Islamic state in Kashmir, has called on Indian Muslims to launch a holy war against those protecting cow and campaigning against slaughter. His call for jihad was released in a four-minute audio clip on Monday.

“We will take revenge for every atrocity. Muslims of India, there is still time to emerge. Form groups and do jihad against these kafirs (infidels). Show these gau rakshaks what it means being a Muslim. Learn from your history,” Musa is heard saying in the clip, which was widely circulated on social media.

“This war is not of Kashmir only. This war is between Islam and infidelity... We will establish Sharia not only in India but in the whole world,” Musa said.

Not so long ago, Musa had warned Kashmir’s separatist parties, led by Syed Ali Shah Geelani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Yaseen Malik, against calling the ongoing struggle in Kashmir a political problem. Threatening to chop off their heads, the militant commander had said the final goal of the Pakistan-backed armed struggle is to enforce the rule of Sharia and establish an Islamic caliphate in the state.
