Coun Eustace of the Birmingham City Council said: “I am delighted to have helped organise this facility for Muslims in Birmingham. Respect for each other’s religion is important.”
When and how do Muslims in Birmingham or anywhere else demonstrate their respect for non-Muslim religions?
Eustace added: “Throwing the copies in the bin or burning them would cause distress and is out of the question. Burying them in Handsworth Cemetery is the best option.”
Well, certainly we cannot allow Muslims to feel distressed. That sounds like the right and proper duty of the Birmingham City Council: making sure that Muslims don’t feel distressed. What is the Birmingham City Council doing to alleviate the distress of Jews, Christians, Hindus, and others? What is it doing to make sure their religious sensibilities are not outraged?
The Imam for Stechford Mosque, Professor Tahir Mahmood Kiani, said: “The holy book must always be treated with respect….due to the unique revered status the Holy Koran holds, disposing of it in a respectful manner is paramount.”
Right. And by acting in this manner, the Birmingham City Council is showing that it, too, believes that the Qur’an holds a “unique revered status.” The Birmingham City Council, like so much of the UK, is well on the way to being conquered and colonized.
To object to this, however, is to be “racist,” “bigoted,” and “Islamophobic.” Thus demonized and stigmatized, the defenders of British culture and identity have a very slim chance of succeeding.
“Row over plans to bury copies of the Koran at a Birmingham cemetery so Muslims can dispose of their worn out texts,” by Martin Robinson, MailOnline, January 23, 2017 (thanks to David):
A special plot for Muslims to bury copies of the Koran at a city cemetery has been approved.
The area is being set aside at Handsworth cemetery in Birmingham to allow people to ‘respectfully dispose of old, worn out and damaged copies’ of their holy book.
Birmingham City Council have given an assurance that the Korans will only be interred on pieces of land where people do not normally walk.
Handsworth has plots for Christian and Muslim burials but an area for the holy text is a first and has delighted the city’s mosques. The practice already takes place in nearby Coventry and Leicester.
But the policy has sparked fury among a minority of locals, who have been branded ‘racist bigots’ for criticising the plan.
Writing on their local newspaper’s website, the Birmingham Mail, ‘Luckytag’ said: ‘I would like to see what would happen if they buried bibles at a mosque – it would never happen.
Respectful ways to dispose of the KoranMuslims must respectfully and properly dispose of old or unusable copies of the Koran.
The holy text needs to be disposed of if it’s splitting at the seams and the pages have become worn and torn. It should never be able to fall apart.
It is not permitted to burn the Koran unless there is no other way to dispose of them.
There are two main respectful methods.
The first is wrapping it in a pure piece of cloth and burying it respectfully in a place where people do not walk.
The other involves tying it to a heavy object like a stone and then placing in flowing water.
‘I worked for a company that went round collecting rubbish from shops houses etc we had loads of these we just burnt em problem solved.’
Another correspondent, called ‘Countylass’ said: ‘This country gets more ridiculous by the day …… whatever next?????’
The critical comments of the policy and Handsworth led to a stream of vitriol in their direction.
Terry Johnson said: ‘Well that’s woke up (sic) all the bigots.’
HarryBa said ‘Why don’t you take a Bible to a mosque and ask them to bury it, or dispose of it. I’m 100% any decent proper mosque would be happy to help you dispose of it in a respectable manner.’.
David786 said: ‘Muslims believe the bible is the word of god and have utmost respect for it. A plot in the cemetery will not harm you, you are acting like it’s in your back garden.’
The plan follows a joint campaign by the Stechford Mosque and Birmingham city councillor Neil Eustace, who said ‘The respectful disposal of damaged or worn out Qur’an is very important to devout Muslims.’
He said a special burial place was needed because many mosques and homes in inner-city Birmingham lack the space or grounds for it.
Coun Eustace, the member for Stechford and Yardley North, added ‘I am delighted to have helped organise this facility for Muslims in Birmingham. Respect for each other’s religion is important.
‘Throwing the copies in the bin or burning them would cause distress and is out of the question. Burying them in Handsworth Cemetery is the best option.’
The Imam for Stechford Mosque, Professor Tahir Mahmood Kiani, said ‘The holy book must always be treated with respect.
‘When a copy of the Holy Koran has become very old and splitting at the seams and the pages have become worn and torn, it is better to not use such a copy lest it falls apart and disintegrates while someone is holding it.
‘Such copies need to disposed of. However, due to the unique revered status the Holy Koran holds, disposing of it in a respectful manner is paramount..’…

Bury them with pig blood and a crucifix
These islamists don’t deserve their cult to have respect of any sort.
Chunkie says
Just another Islamist ploy to get Christians used to them ordering us about and getting their own way using our own laws against us! This is NOT acceptable and Islamists must be stood up to and told enough is enough! They will never destroy British culture, traditions and laws and must either integrate into British society or leave this country!
Mohammad.wasim says
My apprehension. Muslims and other belonging religions should integrate themselves in British culture,traditions and laws. If someone refuse to accept British society.They will be forced to leave the country.
Western civilisationn will never allow to destroy or misuse their hospitality from the aggressive and fanatic immigrants (religious ideologies).
I also appreciate to burn the religious scriptures. It is the best way to disposed of respectful manner.
Carolyne says
“Throwing the copies in the bin or burning them,” sounds right to me. The pig blood is a good idea, too.
Franc says
Please, not pig’s blood with a crucifix. For some reason you think those two go well together?!?
Voytek Gagalka says
Wouldn’t that be “offensive” and branded as “desecrating” Qur’ans? As everybody knows, cremation (burning) of Qur’an as already branded as such. Wouldn’t that imply that “traditional form of funeral” of old books are more appropriate and approved by the Grand Imam?

Elitists block Brexit. This was England’s last best chance to save itself and a handful of leftist elites just crushed it. The will of the people has been denied. Parliament elitists rule now. There will be no Brexit. English citizens are reduced again to serfdom. This time to be policed and enslaved by their Islamic overlords.
DFD says
Yeah. And Theresa Maybe (The Economist) or Sharia May will now put it through parliament – which is explicitly unbound by plebiscites. And the majority in parliament is still pro EU, and many are pro-Islam. As Theresa, **NOT** to be confused with her Austrian names sake, once was herself, and very vocally so. Ah yeah, that was before she got Cameron’s job, who was, well, who was as she was.
Who nominated her as his successor? Think about it.
And Trump is supposed to have said: “I’ll be your Ronald if you’ll be my Maggie.” If she says yes, let’s hope he has dagger proof shirts.
Anne Smith says
The Birmingham City Council comprises Muslims. They are ruling the roost, not native Brits being colonised, but the invaders have taken over totally.
Birmingham is now a Muslim City.

Here’s some more imposition of Shari’ah in Birmingham that I just ran across:
“Birmingham council ‘endorsed Muslim sectarianism’ against persecuted Ahmadi sect”
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/birmingham-council-endorsed-muslim-sectarianism-against-persecuted-ahmadi-sect-1577946
I’m no particular fan of the Ahmadis, who still believe in Shari’ah law and often whitewash mainstream Islam, but being systematically discriminated against in Britain at the behest of their more orthodox coreligionists is just appalling.

Alan Jennison says
Frankly I don’t give two shiny shits what people do with old Korans. The least of our problems is helping Muslims dispose of their Korans.
We would be happy to accommodate Sikhs or Hindus or Buhddists destroy their expired holy books.
There is a hell of a lot wrong with Islam……it is a vile, intolerant, nasty and evil religion…..but allowing them to dispose of their evil Korans is the least of our problems with Islam.
Keith Gilbert says
Let them take them back to the snake hole between the two mosques, Mecca & Medina, for a comfort to all the vile and evil ones who would cling to islam…the ultimate evil.
Westman says
“We would be happy to accommodate Sikhs or Hindus or Buhddists destroy their expired holy books.”
They wouldn’t ask because their ideologies don’t include claiming every piece of land once controlled by Islam as permanent property of Islam. Birmingham thinks they are offering a service when they are really planting the surveying points.
Yes, it does matter. Islam is not only “submission”, it is aggression on all fronts, at all levels, at all times, including claiming victimhood or asking for small privileges not allowed to others. When weak it nibbles, when strong it ravages.
somehistory says
People must pay hard earned money to buy a plot of land to have a burial place for themselves or for their loved one.
These disgusting unholy books containing evil and vile writings of the very worst are being given…given freely…a special place to be buried. How truly disgusting.
Why are the moslims not obligated to buy a plot of land someplace else? Why not sell them a plot near the city dump to bury their evil books? They surely contaminate the ground as they contaminate the minds of so many.
Joe says
It is sacrilege to bury heresy in a Catholic cemetery.
Mark A says
Jews also bury their used holy books and Torah scrolls. But I don’t recall ever hearing about any local authority giving special consideration to burial plots for Jewish holy books.
Jewish congregations seem to take care of that on their own. There is a Jewish cemetery in the city where I live; the Jewish community has owned the cemetery for over a century and they bury their worn out holy books and Torah scrolls in their own cemetery.
Why can’t the Muslims buy a piece of land for this purpose? Are there no lawns around any mosques in Birmingham? Are there no Muslim land owners willing to donate a piece of land for this purpose?
Phil Copson says
Well, of course they can, but that’s not the point.
The point is to take over and put their stamp on everything they can, like a dog peeing up a lamp-post.
They no more give a damn about old books than we do, it’s just another way of parking their tanks on our lawn, and snivelling cowards like Neil Eustace will do anything rather than do the job he’s paid for, and stand up against the cultural jihadists at a council meeting.
I mean, someone might call him a nasty name, and that would never do, would it…..?
Robbydot says
For crying out loud it’s a sodding book! If it’s that sacred to them bury them in the grounds of mosques, there’s enough of the bloody things.
Charli Main says
That not the point Robbydot. By burying this Muslim shyte in a Christian cemetery that cemetery becomes Muslim land forever.
Anywhere a Muslim lives, prays or is buried becomes part of the Ummah forever.
These Muslims are just making the point THAT WE ARE LIVING IN THEIR COUNTRY.

Dear Brits:
1. Think of the Battle of Britain.
2. Arm yourselves — even if you have to circumvent your laws.
3. Lock and load.
4. Take your country back.
Anne Smith says
Well that’s right. The recent survey by Dame Louise Casey found that 75% of Muslims think Britain is actually a Muslim country, that is the extent of non integration and non assimilation which now pertains.
Marty says
Much of Birmngham is now a mohammedan hellhole.
Masked women, men walking around with their shirt tails round their ankles.
It used to be Britain’s Second City.
London is no longer British at all, it is too “diverse” for that.
Birmingham is more easily categorised as Islam’s First UK City.

dwight hogg says
was it not Birmingham where 1400 young girls were raped, terrorized and sold as prostitutes by a Pakistani Muslim group? And the authorities tried to cover it up so as not to upset Muslim sensitivities. I cannot understand how this story didn’t create a tsunami of protests not only in Britain but throughout the world. And I have heard nothing about what happened to these Muslim perpetrators of this horrific crime against humanity, Some of the girls were as young as 11.
Anne Smith says
No, it was Rotherham but it is actually happening in most big cities, especially where there is a preponderance of Pakistani Muslims.
There is a big enquiry ongoing at present about Telford, where another Rotherham style scandal has emerged.
It also appears that Muslim taxi drivers ( a very popular job among Muslims) are very much part of the whole vile process.

Sharia UK: Birmingham City Council plans to bury old Qur’ans in city cemetery
……………………………….
My mother was born in Birmingham. When she passed away a few years ago, I wanted to respect her wishes of being laid to rest in the small English village where she had grown up.
I was told by the very helpful fellow representing the cemetery that the remains would have to be cremated first. I asked if that was because they were coming from abroad, and was told no, that many cemeteries, including his own, were now so crowded that they no longer sold full-size plots, and that this was the main reason that over three-quarters of all Britons are now cremated.
I knew my mother had never much liked the idea of cremation, but that the choice was between this and not fulfilling her final wishes, so I went ahead. She now has a plot in the cemetery, but it is much smaller than that for a full-sized burial.
The only reason I go into so much detail here is *this*–there is not enough room in many British cemeteries for many people to be interred as they might wish, but now they are finding room to *bury Qur’ans*. I am disgusted.

……………………………….
This poster is either an idiot or he is being meretricious.
The “Bible” that Muslims respect never existed–it is a fictive tome that was supposed to be just as violent as the Qur’an. The Bible as it actually exists they believe was “corrupted” by Jews and Christians.
Catholic says
It’s a book. Are books equivalent to human beings ? If you want to bury them, why not have a place on the grounds at their building of worship. It couldn’t take up that much space. I wonder what the Catholic Church would say if someone tried to bury a Bible in a Catholic cemetery ? Yes, it’s the word of God and holy, but still not a human being. Which is holier and more dignified ? Humans or holy books ? Equivalent ? Good question.
