| 2019-01-25 |
| [Libya Observer] The Prime Minister of the parallel "Interim Government" in al-Bayda, eastern Libya, Abdullah al-Thani has accused his government's Awqaf Authority of being a staunch follower of a certain religious sect and foreign agendas. In a letter to the deputy prime minister, al-Thani said he would take strict measures to respond to the appointment and sacking orders made recently by the Awqaf Authority. "The Head of the Awqaf Authority is individually making decisions without any consultation with the offices of the authority, which threatens nationality security." al-Thani added. The Awqaf Authority had been for years sacking mosques' imams and preachers whose ideas were at odds with it, replacing them with others who share it the same ideologies. Salafist-Madkhali ideology's followers - linked to and backed by Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... - have been controlling the Awqaf Authority in al-Bayda since its split from Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... 's headquarters in 2014. The authority has been spreading the ideology since 2014 in eastern Libya, issuing many fatwas that helped break the well-knitted social fabric, such as the fatwa against the Ibadism doctrine in Libya saying Libyans mustn't pray behind an Ibadi Imam. |
