Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

India: 12 Muslims found hiding in mosques to avoid coronavirus restrictions

Mar 25, 2020 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Shubham Sharma wrote this in an exclusive article for Jihad Watch:

Thousands of Indian Muslims are creating mayhem and refusing to go home in order to accomplish their ends. Their outlandish actions at the time of this deadly outbreak are plunging India into uncertainty. These demonstrations are simply spoiling the efforts of the government, which are widely supported by the Indian public, to contain the virus.

Now there’s more:

As the central and state governments tighten vigil on citizens not complying with the restrictions being imposed on them to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus in the county, Patna police have detained 12 foreign nationals from a mosque in Patna’s Kurji area. According to reports, these people had hidden in the Mosque located near Gate No. 74 in the locality, with the help of few local Muslims. These people were reportedly hiding, fearing medical examination amidst the coronavirus outbreak.

Muslims all over the Middle East and Southeast Asia are caught between the rigidity of their faith and the reality of coronavirus. Islamic preachers have been telling their followers that if they die while praying in obedience to Islam, they’ll be martyrs, and/or that to fear coronavirus is a sign of a lack of faith in Allah. So now India must deal with people who may be choosing to sacrifice their own lives for Islam, and will end up taking some infidels with them.

“Foreign nationals found hiding in Patna Mosque, police takes them for coronavirus testing,” OpIndia, March 23, 2020:

As the central and state governments tighten vigil on citizens not complying with the restrictions being imposed on them to contain the spread of the novel coronavirus in the county, Patna police have detained 12 foreign nationals from a mosque in Patna’s Kurji area. According to reports, these people had hidden in the Mosque located near Gate No. 74 in the locality, with the help of few local Muslims. These people were reportedly hiding, fearing medical examination amidst the coronavirus outbreak.

It is being believed that these foreigners were religious preachers and they have been roaming around freely in Bihar.

When the residents of the area came to know about it, the people protested and started creating a ruckus. As soon as the information of the commotion reached the local police, they raided the Mosque and apprehended the 12 foreigners. Police are currently raiding the entire locality.

According to reports, these foreigners have been in Patna since the month of January. They have taken shelter in the Mosque with the help of some local Muslims. Since all there documents, like the passport and the visa, are in place, no other action will be taken against them, except that these foreigners will go through a medical examination to check if any of them are COVID-19 positive, after which they would be released.

While the nationality of the foreigners is not clear yet, some media reports have claimed they are from Turkey. Some reports have claimed that they are of mixed nationality, with persons from Iran and some other central Asian nations…..

    I’ve just posted this communication recently received from an organisation called ‘Britian First’ on the end of another unrelated story. Although it relates to the UK, it seems to be quite relevant here:-

    “Because of the coronavirus pandemic, it has become a matter of national security that every single one of us should stay at home and practice social distancing to slow the transmission of the virus.

    These rules especially apply to religious congregations, which have been found to be ‘super-spreaders’ when it comes to accelerating the transmission of the coronavirus in countries such as Iran, Malaysia and South Korea.

    Despite strict government instructions, almost half of the mosques across the UK have refused to shut their doors or to forbid congregations from praying in acts of collective worship.”

    All mainstream churches in the UK have suspended acts of worship. How about the US?

    No matter where on the planet, religious practices in which respective followers can/could themselves be infected during a congregation/service–which can/could then infect others–simply must NOT be tolerated.

    There have been numerous examples of religious ‘leaders’ who–being quite aware of this global pandemic–either intended to go forth with such plans or actually did so.

    In some cases respective governments had to intervene.
