Och så här går det till i det fria demokratiska Egypten.
Visst är det fint när toleransens och fredens religion visar sina fredligaste och tolerantaste sidor.
Dubbelkram till Dar al islam.
A Muslim sheikh jailed in Egypt for 18 months has declared from his prison
cell that he is under arrest for “insulting Islam” by becoming a
Christian.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For more than 20 years, the former sheikh was a member of the
fundamentalist Islamic group Tabligh and Da’wa, which actively proselytized
non-Muslims but strictly opposed violence. He also led a mosque community in
Al-Haram, in the Giza area adjacent to Cairo. In 1994 he had published, Islam:
the Religion, a 500-page book reviewing the traditional beliefs of the Islamic
faith.
But he became disillusioned, and five years ago the sheikh said he
began to pray that he could somehow know God personally. It was not until
January 2005 that he talked for the first time with someone who explained the
tenets of the Christian faith to him. He began intensive study of Christian
Scripture, and within weeks he became a follower of Jesus.
