Azerbaijan, Baku / corr Trend S.Agayeva / Belivers in Azerbaian do not pursue accession to power, Haji Allahshukuir Pashazade, the Chairman of the Caucasus Muslims Clerical Board, said in talks with journalists on 28 August.
"The believers have always been loyal to the Government," he said. Using religion for political purposes should be peculiar to believers throughout the world," Sheik-ul-Islam said.
Believers and the government have full mutual understanding in Azerbaijan. Religious tolerance is the focus of the head of State and the existence of 2,000 mosques in Azerbaijan testifies this, reported to Pashazade.
