(Algemeiner) Danish imam Mundhir Abdallah recently defended himself against hate speech charges pending against him by calling for jihad against Israel.
Abdallah, imam of the Al-Faruq Mosque in Copenhagen, has been indicted as a result of a sermon he delivered on March 31, 2017. According to a Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) translation, he said, “[Soon there will be] a Caliphate, which will instate the shari’a of Allah and revive the Sunna of His Prophet, which will wage jihad for the sake of Allah, which will unite the Islamic nation after it disintegrated, and which will liberate the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the filth of the Zionists, so that the words of the Prophet Muhammad will be fulfilled.”
