(Ankara) On the 25th of October Turkey’s president Recep Tayyip Erdogan attended Friday prayers at the Great Çamlıca Mosque in Istanbul After the prayers, the hafiz of the mosque recited the Koranic Verse Al-Fath, which means “victory, triumph, conquest” in English. Then Erdogan took the microphone, reciting a part of the verse in Arabic and then in Turkish. He told the congregants:
“Our God commands us to be violent towards the kuffar (infidels). Who are we? The ummah [nation] of Mohammed. So [God] also commands us to be merciful to each other. So we will be merciful to each other. And we will be violent to the kuffar. Like in Syria.”All we hear in the Western media is how Muslims can only be victims in the West how they suffer the worst injustices and that how there is a world wide conspiracy against them. Time and time again we are treated to examples of how Intolerant this faith is, and time and time again those who expose those lapses amongst the so called faithful are castigated as ...racists. so if any ethical latte drinkers has managed to come across this post, do tell, what you have to say about the message above related to the faithful from the leader oft heir country?
