While Western leaders continue to welcome a flood of Muslim migrants into their countries in the name of “diversity” and “inclusion,” in hopes that they will all integrate nicely under the banner of Western democracy, Europe continues to implode. That is because Islam advances supremacist, intolerant and inhumane doctrines.
Imam Seyran Ateş opened the Ibn Rushd-Goethe mosque in Berlin last year; at that mosque, “men and women pray in the same space. Burqas and niqabs are strongly discouraged, headscarves are optional, and women often lead in prayer. LGBT Muslims are welcome and can get even get married at the mosque.”
Because of all that, woe be onto her. She has not been welcomed by the mainstream Islamic groups in Berlin. Instead, she is isolated and needs 16 guards constantly to protect her. All the while, her coreligionists run around screaming “Islamophobia” at any criticism of Islam:
Religious authorities in Turkey and at the Al-Azhar university in Cairo have excoriated her, and virtually every day brings new threats of rape, or murder, or both.
“With her liberal religious interpretations of the Qur’an and the Hadith, Ateş unleashed the anger of millions of Muslims.” Yes, millions, because traditional and normative Islam is supremacist and sanctions jihad.
“16 Guards Are Needed to Protect a German Imam Who Fights for Gender Equality”, by Terry Firma, Patheos (thanks to The Religion of Peace), May 15, 2018:
Berlin-based Imam Seyran Ateş, 55, has had to get used to the hate mail and the death threats.She hardly cut a popular figure among Germany’s Muslim population before 2017; as a lawyer, she used to represent victims of domestic abuse and other violence perpetrated by her clients’ conservative-Muslim husbands and brothers. Ateş has a scar on her neck from where a would-be murderer’s bullet hit her years ago.Then, last year, the Istanbul-born feminist really painted a bull’s-eye on herself when she started the Ibn Rushd-Goethe mosque in the German capital. It’s a place of worship where men and women pray in the same space. Burqas and niqabs are strongly discouraged, headscarves are optional, and women often lead in prayer. LGBT Muslims are welcome and can get even get married at the mosque.The Dutch daily Trouw, which published an interview with Ateş on Friday, reports that she has a security detail of 16 guards. Everywhere she goes, her armed protectors keep an eye on her, scanning the surroundings for Islamist assassins.With her liberal religious interpretations of the Qur’an and the Hadith, Ateş unleashed the anger of “millions of Muslims,” according to Trouw. Religious authorities in Turkey and at the Al-Azhar university in Cairo have excoriated her, and virtually every day brings new threats of rape, or murder, or both — often from within the free, secular country where Ateş has lived since she was six…..
