Somalia Islamic Supremists Begin war on music
MOGADISHU -- A hardline Somali Islamist group issued a 10-day ultimatum Saturday to Mogadishu-based radio stations to stop playing all kinds of music or face unspecified penalties, an Islamist leader said.Did they need to specify? The Hezb al-Islam group, which controls patches of the war-riven Somali capital, said playing music on radio stations was evil. "We call on the local radio stations to stop broadcasting the songs and all music as well. We give them a 10-day deadline and any radio station found not complying with the orders... will face sharia action," said Moalim Hashi Mohamed Farah, a senior Hezb al-Islam official, referring to Islamic law. "We also issue orders banning the local media from using the word 'foreigners' to refer to our Muslim brothers coming from outside the country to help us fight against the enemy of Allah," he told reporters. at the site you can see Jihadwatch's collection of anti music hadith - remember if Mohammud is the model and the best of men and he didn't like music, well that leads to the obvious final solution to the flutist problem Posted by: lord garth 2010-04-04 |
