Muslims roll out prayer mats in streets in massive protest in Paris suburb

[wvwvw]

Hemmed in and closely watched by police, hundreds of Muslims have unrolled rugs and mats and prayed outdoors in the busy streets of a Paris suburb to protest the closure of their prayer hall.

Clichy City Hall has every right to turn “the rented prayer hall the worshippers were using into a multimedia library for the town’s 60,000 residents.”

In October 2015, there was similar incident in LA:

a street was clogged and rendered impassible because a horde of Muslims decided to roll out a huge prayer rug, set up speakers to broadcast the Arabic drone, toss off their shoes, and block the street in order to pray.



Muslims Protest with Street Prayer in Paris Suburb, Associated Press, March 31, 2017:

PARIS (AP) — Hemmed in and closely watched by police, hundreds of Muslims have unrolled rugs and mats and prayed outdoors in the busy streets of a Paris suburb to protest the closure of their prayer hall.

The show of strength Friday by throngs of worshippers in Clichy highlights a long-standing issue for France’s Muslim community, estimated at 5 million people: a shortage of mosques.

Clichy City Hall wants to turn the rented prayer hall the worshippers were using into a multimedia library for the town’s 60,000 residents.

It says Muslims can worship at a new Islamic cultural and prayer center, already used by hundreds of people, the town inaugurated last year…

Women should have walked in front of them. This invalidates the prayers.

This is NOTHING BUT ISLAMIC SUPREMACY in display and at the same time cleverly playing the usual sob story victimhood….!!! Don’t I know these people!!! Everywhere.. it is their way or the highway… France should pass DRACONIAN LAWS like China and get these muslims off the streets and book them for creating public disorder..

I just hope that the French are not deluded enough to vote for Emmanuel Macron who has said that “there is no such thing as French culture” and insisted that “no religion is a problem in France today”

If they were just renting it from the city, then the city is totally in the right.

They should, however, consider what options are available to the Muslims before doing these sorts of things. Closing the only Masjid in town would not be right imo.

Would you be offended if I say I'm not keen on having more Masjids being constructed in the San Francisco Bay Area?

Everyone has their own opinion, so no. Luckily you don't get to decide that kind of thing.

Nothing wrong with praying. If they feel genuine about praying.
