(Breitbart) The French Council of State, the country’s top administrative court, is considering giving Muslims an exemption from the Wuhan coronavirus curfew during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.
The consideration is coming in response to a request made by the Grand Mosque of Paris. Its rector, Chems-Eddine Hafiz, has asked for the curfew to be lifted for five hours between 9 pm and 2 am on the 27th day of Ramadan so Muslims can celebrate the Laylat al-Qadr (“The Night of Destiny”), which is set to take place on the 9th of May.
“This is one of the most [significant] liturgical moments of the Muslim religion,” Mr Hafiz told the court, according to Le Figaro, “because it celebrates the revelation of the Quran to the Prophet Muhammad.”
