Al Azhar protests For Sharia in Eqypt
It’s stuff like this that makes me chuckle about the people who think we are going to somehow get pwned by Sharia in the US or Europe. Fundamentalists in Islamic countries are having a hard enough time holding onto it right where it started (thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands have demonstrated in Egypt, but AA can only muster 200 zealots in the birthplace of the modern fundamentalist sharia movement.)
About 200 imams protested today in front of the Religious Affairs Ministry, calling for politicians to relinquish their influence in the appointment of religious officials in Egypt. The imams, reports MENA, specifically demanded for the appointment of the head of the Al Ahzar Mosque no longer to be decided by the president of the republic and that the security department should no longer have a say regarding the appointment of religious officials and professors.
