[AnNahar] Swiss police tossed in the calaboosePlease don't kill me! a holy man at a controversial mosque near Zurich on Wednesday after he allegedly urged followers to kill fellow Moslems who refused to join communal prayers. In a statement, the prosecutor in Zurich's cantonal government said the imam at the An'Nur de Winterhour mosque, who is an Æthiopian national, were tossed into the calaboose for incitement to violence. During an October 21 sermon, the imam "called for the liquidation of Moslems who refuse to participate in communal prayers in the mosque," the prosecutor's statement said, adding that a criminal probe had been launched. Three of the imam's followers were also being held and investigated but the prosecutor said it was "unclear" what role they played in the alleged call to violence. Separately, Zurich police raided the mosque early Monday and arrested three other men -- aged 23 to 35 -- over suspected immigration violations. Swiss media have reported frequently on the An'Nur mosque, including on suggestions that it has played a part in radicalizing young Moslems. According to the news site 20min.ch, the Æthiopian holy man starting working at the mosque recently, replacing a predecessor who was forced to leave amid accusations that he was preaching extremism. Swiss media have further reported that the compound's landlords do not intend to extend the mosque's lease, possibly forcing its closure by the of the year.

| #1 from the hadith collection of Bukhari I:II:626 Mohamad said, "Certainly I decided to order the Mu'adh-dhin (call-maker) to pronounce Iqama [second call to prayer] and order a man to lead the prayer and then take a fire flame to burn all those who had not left their houses so far for the prayer along with their houses." |
