Mufti of Chechnya demanded to punish the organizers of the burning of the Koran in Stockholm

Little Aisha needs braces and piano lessons, so the professional protesters across the Ummah need something new to protest about.

[KavkazUzel] The head of the Muftiate of Chechnya, Salakh Mezhiev, following Ramzan Kadyrov, condemned the action of burning the Koran in Stockholm, blaming the Swedish authorities for it and demanding that the organizers be punished. The assistant to the head of Chechnya, Apti Alaudinov, also joined the condemnation campaign.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that today Ramzan Kadyrov sharply criticized Rasmus Paludan, the leader of the Danish ultra-right Hard Course party, who on January 21 burned the Koran near the Turkish embassy in Stockholm. The head of Chechnya suggested that "political forces" were behind Paludan's action, and said that all those involved in this action had incurred eternal damnation.

The Turkish authorities condemned Paludan's act, calling it an "open violation" of the memorandum on joining NATO. In this regard, the visit of the Minister of Defense of Sweden to Turkey has been cancelled. The Swedish authorities said in response that they do not support Islamophobia, but there is "wide freedom of opinion" in the country.

Mufti of Chechnya Salakh Mezhiev today strongly condemned the action in Sweden, the press service of the Spiritual Board of Muslims of the republic reported today.

Mezhiev blamed the Swedish authorities for the incident. "Words are not enough to express the indignation and anger of true Muslims caused by the actions of the Swedish authorities! The Holy Quran was burned in Stockholm!" - Mezhiev's words are quoted in a publication in the telegram channel of the Muftiate.

At the same time, the incident in Sweden became a reason for the Mufti of Chechnya to reproach the "Kyiv regime" and justify the actions of Russian troops in Ukraine. "In our country, the Holy Scriptures are protected by the state, so it is impossible to imagine such a coven of democrats in any region of the Russian Federation! Our [...] warriors are fighting against this Kyiv regime, who from the very first days take an active part in a special military operation," - said Salah Mezhiev.

He demanded to punish the organizers of the action. "We strongly condemn the position of the Swedish authorities and demand that the organizers of the provocation be brought to justice! We also ask the Almighty for a painful punishment for all those involved in this inhuman act," Mezhiev's words are quoted in the publication.

Apti Alaudinov , an assistant to the head of Chechnya, commander of the Akhmat special forces, made an appeal to "solve the issue" with Paludan today . "If there is at least one truly believing Muslim in Sweden, he will not go home and will not go to bed until he resolves the issue with this Satanist. Either he must leave this state, or stop the Satanist forever!" – he wrote in his telegram channel.

Recall that on February 28, 2022, Salah Mezhiev announced that the Chechen fighters participating in the military operation in Ukraine "went to jihad" and are fighting for the sake of Allah. On March 29 of the same year, Kadyrov called on the Chechen security forces to " die on the path of jihad."

Jihad is divided into several types: "jihad of the heart" - the fight against one's shortcomings, "jihad of the tongue" - the permission of what is approved and the prohibition of what is condemned, "jihad of the hand" - the punishment of those who have transgressed the law and moral norms, "jihad of the sword" - armed struggle against the infidels, the fallen where they find eternal bliss. Military jihad does not include aggressive wars, border clashes, ethnic strife and clan conflicts, any attempts to conquer, oppress, colonize and exploit, as well as forcibly induce people to accept someone else's faith, the "Jihad" report of the "Caucasian Knot" says.

Uh huh. Don’t tell all the other jihadis engaged in exactly that — they’ll get upset and turn on you for distorting the Holy Word.

Jihad can be declared by an imam, a government official or a spiritual leader, religious scholars interviewed by the "Caucasian Knot" pointed out, commenting on the words of Salakh Mezhiev about sending fellow countrymen to Ukraine. When declaring jihad, the mufti should have emphasized that this does not apply to all Muslims , they explained.

In October 2022, Ramzan Kadyrov called the situation in Western countries a "satanic democracy" and called on the Muslims of the Caucasus to jihad against the West.

Earlier, on June 23, Kadyrov published a video with a sermon by the adviser to the head of Chechnya on religious affairs, Adam Shahidov, in which he revealed from a religious point of view the topic of the participation of the inhabitants of the republic in hostilities in Ukraine. "The fight against the henchmen of Iblis must be waged by Muslims always and everywhere, and even the most ardent religious skeptics cannot argue with this postulate," Kadyrov wrote in a commentary on Shahidov's video.

#4 was paid for by Chang Frick, a journalist, and host of the far-right Riks channel of the Swedish Democrats, who has long lobbied for Russian propaganda and is probably a Russian agent of influence.

Far-right Russian agents? So that's like neo-Nazis?

#2 Russia has stepped up its covert ties in Sweden to block its path to a NATO membership agreement. According to an investigation by Expressen. The performance, in which radical activists burn the Koran in Stockholm, led by Rasmus Paludan, was paid for by Chang Frick, a journalist, and host of the far-right Riks channel of the Swedish Democrats, who has long lobbied for Russian propaganda and is probably a Russian agent of influence.

Provoke the Turks to veto Sweden's NATO membership.
