On March 13, 2004 IslamOnline.net reported, "World Muslims condemned the Madrid blasts, sending it clear that killing civilians is forbidden in their religion regardless of where or who carry out the attacks. After the blasts, which left 200 people dead and 1,400 others injured, a crowded group of Muslims gathered outside the Islamic Cultural Center in the Spanish capital to raise their voice strongly against terrorism. 'These blasts were not only against the Islamic religion but also the entire humanity,' Director of the Islamic Cultural Centre in Madrid Saleh bin Mohammed Al Sinaidi told reporters Friday, March 12. 'We deeply regret that such incidents rocked our city where Muslims live as well,' Al Sinaidi said, through an interpreter."
