Saudi Shia Cleric calls Minister of Education to Dismantle Radical Thoughts
2014-09-22
[ABNA.IR] Sheikh Rida al-Salman, a senior Shia holy man from Al-Ahsa, directed on September, 12, a speech to the Minster of Education Prince Khaled Al-Faisal, demanding him to dismantle some of the radical thoughts which dominate the society for decades.

The statement which was a part of Friday seminar comes after the vicious campaign against Shiite that was launched in Twitter from some ultra conservative figures on September 5, on the background of printing a photo of Sheikh Abdullah al-Sinawi, a Shiite holy man, unintentionally on the cover of one of the religious books which is taught in Saudi international schools.

Al-Salman said that "Shiites rejoiced after Prince Khaled Al-Faisal issued a statement condemning intervention in sectarian issues inside schools but unfortunately nothing applied on the ground".

Mahmud the First aimed to dismantle
A thought he proclaimed insubstantial,
But he, having trampled
Out every example,
Still heard that damned chorus of Handel!
