Egyptian cleric issues death fatwa against anti-Muslim Brotherhood government protesters

Hashem Islam, a preacher from the prestigious Muslim institution Al Azhar said this week that the demonstrators in the August 24 protest are heretics and their murder is legal.



Here is the same moron saying that suicide murders are a Muslim Religious duty - obviously he`s not prepared to take his own advice -




As usual, Billy Connolly has the most sensible view on this matter:

It's hard to make "the religion of peace" argument when stories like this keep coming out

From The Express Tribune -

PESHAWAR:   A prominent cleric on Friday offered a reward of half a million rupees for executing Aasia Bibi, a Christian woman who was sentenced to death by a court on charges of blasphemy.  

Maulana Yousaf Qureshi, the Khateeb of the historic Masjid Mohabaat Khan in Peshawar, offered a Rs500,000 reward for anyone who kills Aasia, Online news agency reported.  

Qureshi also warned the government against any move to abolish or change the blasphemy law. 

“No president, no parliament and no government has the right to interfere in the tenets of Islam. Islamic punishment (according to Muslim jurisprudence) will be implemented at all costs,” said Maulana Qureshi.  

“We will strongly resist any attempt to repeal laws which provide protection to the sanctity of Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH),” Qureshi is reported to have told a rally. “Anyone who kills Aasia will be given Rs500,000 in reward from Masjid Mohabat Khan.”  

“We expect her to be hanged and if she is not hanged then we will ask the mujahideen and the Taliban to kill her.”
