“Preachers across Egypt condemn Tahrir protests in Friday sermons,” from Al-Masry Al-Youm, October 19:
Several preachers condemned the demonstrations against the Muslim Brotherhood in their Friday sermons today, describing the protests as attempts to sow sedition.
“Those who called for the protests Friday should not think they are struggling for the sake of God and the homeland,” said Sheik Ahmed al-Mahalawy at the Leader Ibrahim Mosque in Alexandria.
“The organizers are struggling for the sake of their own desires after Satan tempted them,” Mahalawy added.
“The current days are blessed. You have to think of Hajj or Umra, or devote yourselves to obey God, as these days are an opportunity to get closer to God.”
