My latest at PJ Media:
Here is some exciting news for those who are impatient for our glorious multicultural future to arrive: the BBC has for the first time begun to broadcast Islamic prayer. Global Village Space reported Wednesday that “in a first, BBC begins the broadcast of Muslim prayers on its network as mosques shut down across Britain, part of the extensive measures against coronavirus.”
In today’s Britain, it is extraordinarily unlikely that the BBC will stop broadcasting the adhan, the Islamic call to prayer, once the coronavirus pandemic is over. Especially not with another Ramadan almost upon us. A cultural line has been crossed. And the implications of this, beyond the expected hosannas from the usual proponents of globalism and multiculturalism, are ominous.
According to Global Village Space, “different imams lead the 5:50 am broadcasts every week on Friday from 14 local radio stations of BBC. The imam recites verses from the Holy Quran and quotes of Holy Prophet before delivering the sermon and leading the listeners in prayers. The program is titled, ‘Islamic Reflections’. The arrangements have been made to facilitate the Muslim community to the run-up to the month of Ramadan till the end of April.”
The BBC is no doubt thrilled to do this, as it demonstrates how “inclusive” the mega- network is, and how welcoming British society is. Chris Burns, the head of BBC Local Radio, was dead chuffed, saying: “Local radio is all about connecting communities, and we hope these weekly reflections will go some way to helping Muslims feel a sense of community while they are isolating.”
BBC CWR presenter Phil Upton added: “Ramadan is just a few weeks away and I appreciate that for many that’s a big void to fill with as many as one and a half hours of your day, especially in the evening, in Ramadan month, spent in your local mosque. With many local mosques being closed because of the coronavirus outbreak there’s an overwhelming sadness with the loss of your spiritual connection that can be gained from congregational prayers, so we are trying to fill the void in some small way with Islamic reflections.”
Well, that’s wonderful, but when the BBC broadcasts the Islamic call to prayer, what exactly is it broadcasting? The adhan, prayed in Arabic, goes like this:
Allah is greater (Allahu akbar); intoned four times.
I testify that there is no God but Allah (Ashhadu anna la ila ill Allah); intoned twice.
I testify that Mohammed is Allah’s Prophet (Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasul Allah); intoned twice.
Come to prayer (Hayya alas salah); intoned twice.
Come to security/salvation (Hayya alal falah); intoned twice.
Allah is greater (Allahu akbar); intoned twice.
There is no God but Allah (La ilah ill Allah); intoned once.
There is much more. Read the rest here.

Yup.

And, do they broadcast church prayers and church bells?

Hi Lydia –
I HATE the BBC, with a passion, but they did transmit a beautiful Easter service – from last year, on TV.
Credit on solely that factor.
Nonetheless they still remain, ultimately a vile company.

Giacomo Latta says
How impotent is your god, whatever that may be, that it cannot stop me from being an atheist. And how half-witted is your god to only relate his existence to a sexual deviant or a hallucinatory would-be child killer or whatever else instead of interrupting the World Cup final or the Super Bowl at half-time to get his message across. You’ve really picked a winner whichever it is.

Dawne Swift says
Absolutely disgusting that the BBC, which all UK television owners have to pay a tax for (whether or not they actually watch the BBC), should do this. Finally pushed me over the edge – I will stop paying my licence fee and prepare to argue the case in court, as you can actually end up in prison here for not paying the BBC licence fee.

Just send them the standard letter (found online) in which you tell them you arent using their services and you now deny them the right to enter your property. They right back to say they confirm they will not enter. This happens every two years. No problems
GOLDMANN says
Ms Swift l wouldn’t waste you’re time ,😐 BBC ARE CORRUPT. I don’t have a TV anymore.l don’t believe anything they say !😡
mortimer says
There are 4,200 different religions. Will the BBC EQUALLY BROADCAST ALL 4,200???
There are already Muslim TV channels and Muslim internet channels upon which Muslims can focus 24/7. There is no need for the BBC to submit to Islam.
The state religion of England it the CofE and of Scotland the CofS. Let Muslims and the other 4,118 religions do their own thing.

Rolf Wittwer says
Whaaat?
As many traditional institution, “old traditional” BBC too, has been heavy infiltrated now by Islam. This is fact.
Every Nonmuslim should read the “Charta of the Islamic Brotherhood” which is an extremely dangerous command/order which has worldwide millions o fanatic followers.
It shows clear, that Islamization has to/will be installed at EVERY GOVERNMENT AND PRIVATE INSTITUTIONS, by all means. It has to be done in a “peaceful manner”, so that complete taking-over will be done without any bloodshed. Every EU-government will have to agree with that dark future plan.
Too many contracts, pacts, papers etc. against our western civilization have been signed already.
Most (blind) Europeans seems to be happy with it.
But without me and probably another one or two people.
Wellington says
No sooner does the UK significantly help defeat two secular totalitarianisms, i.e., Nazism and Communism, then by way of idiotic organizations like the BBC it is aiding another totalitarianism, i.e., Islam.
Beyond pathetic. Beyond tragic. Beyond stupid. Actually, downright suicidal.
Roger Woodhouse says
why do you think the BBCis deliberately working toward the overthrow of our Christian heritage?Can you offer a sound reason for this?
Roger Woodhouse says
Still waiting for a reply .Perhaps gravenimage has an answer or is she still hung up about the number of Jewish directors there were twenty or so years ago on the BBC..I did check and there was no doubt a larger number than gentiles .(this was common knowledge at the time for anyone interested)My comment was factual and I left the ‘reasoning ‘for this for conjecture.No more no less
ntesdorf says
Islam now has its foot on the British throat and the BBC is doing all that it can to assist it in the process.
FYI says
Typical BBC:so lefty,so morally bankrupt ,that they have to pander to the ‘holy’ muslims.
Just remember…
That islamic “prayer” is to “allah” the muslim’s ARAB god who admits to being a champion deceiver {koran 3:54} and whose greatest enemy is a MAN called the “king of kings”{Sahih muslim vol 5 hadith #5611},a god who CURSES Christians for believing in Jesus Christ { koran 9:30} and calls Jews and Christians the “WORST of created beings”{koran 98:6},a god who has a Doctrine of HATE al walaa wal baraa towards all non-muslims, a god who MISSED the Golden Rule and teaches his followers to disobey both of the 2 chief Commandments of God and the Exodus 20 Decalogue.
And whose “prophet” was a self-confessed liar{al tabari 6:111} and a mass murderer of Jews {Abu Dawud 4390}
Just remember that…
GOLDMANN says

Me too Goldmann!I got fed up of all that biased pro-Globalist,pro-islam Newz.

James Lincoln says
I have a recommendation for all citizens of the UK:
A mass boycott of the BBC.
Refuse to pay the jizya.
They can’t arrest all of you…
Wellington says
I agree, James. Massive (and peaceful) civil disobedience could prove quite effective. As you wrote, can’t arrest everyone.
Besides, it’s about time the BBC (and the Western media in general, especially the publicly funded media, another example here in America being NPR which for me has long stood for National Propaganda Radio) gets a “comeuppance.” The BBC was created in the 1920’s and for decades served a good purpose. No longer. The UK would be better off without it than any longer with it as long as it remains what it has become.

Wellington why do you think the BBC is working toward the overthrow of our Christian heritage and why do you think they are promoting extreme leftwing dogma?.Im just curious to understand what their true intentions are because surely such events can only lead to civil war here in Britain.

Mr Lincoln, why would a UK citizen want anything to do with the BBC once they found out what leftist snow flakes they were.!??🙄 A saintly lady battled with them for years Sister Mary Whitehouse , in the 1960’s -70’s, she WON in the end BUT she had GOD ELoHIM on her side.🙋
Roger Woodhouse says
The problem with that James is that the majority of BBC viewers are happy with the line that organisation has taken and any swing to the ‘right’ by them will be pounced upon by the leftwing luvvies .There is no going back by the BBC unless its defunded by this so called conservative government.Whether that would be sufficient for the BBC to mend its ways is another question.

Just in Time for Ramadan, “Allahu Akbar” Rings Out on the BBC
……………….
Oh, great. Were they broadcasting “Heil Hitler!” in 1940? Why not?
Is the BBC broadcasting Christian sermons? Jewish services? Hindu and Sikh worship?
And as Robert Spencer notes, this bowing to Muslim supremacism is unlikely to end when the Coronavirus epidemic does.

Aussie Infidel says
Will the BBC explain to the British people that as well as being part of the adhan or call to prayer, Allahu-Akbar is the war-cry of the jihadists? And as such, it was used to rally the Muslim soldiers into battle, and “cast terror into the hearts of the unbelievers”. (Quran 3:151).
“When Allah’s Apostle fought or raided people we raised our voices saying, ‘Allahu-Akbar! Allahu-Akbar! None has the right to be worshipped but Allah’.” Bukhari 5:59:516. The war-cry of the jihadists goes all the way back to Muhammad himself.
And will the BBC explain further that the purpose of those raids, and the ongoing jihadist attacks today – where Muslims continue to scream “Allahu Akbar!” – are to conquer the world for Allah?
Allah’s Apostle said: “I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah’s Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform that, then they save their lives and property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah.” (Bukhari, 1:2:24).
Or is it possible that the leftist Islamophiles in the BBC don’t even know this??

The vast majority of Britons have no idea just what is happening under their noses.Our Cheistian heritage has been taken from them while the concentrated in ‘the goid life’ ie beer and skittles.Our religion was dished by the BBC over the past 50 years bit by bit via its programes Sunday was abolished as we once knew it .Our children devoid of any sense of who they are or where they came from.I hold the BBC totally responsible.Did its majority of Jewish directors have a say in this I wonder?It continues its brainwashing unabated….”
—————————————————————————————————————————
Agree with much of what you say regarding the deliberate elimination of a sense of national identity – (other than as something to be ashamed of course….) – but why do you think that the majority of BBC directors are Jewish, and – even if they were – why on earth would any sane Jewish person wish to assist in the elimination of the UK as a safe country for Jewish people ?
The directors are: David Clementi, Tony Hall, Elan Closs-Stephens, Tim Davie, Shirley Garrood, Tanni Grey-Thompson, Ian Hargreaves, Tom Ilube, Ken MacQuarrie, Steven Morrison, Nicolas Serota, Ashley Steel, and Francesca Unsworth – out of that lot, I suspect Tim Davie and Ken MacQuarrie of being Celts with malice aforethought.
Rarely says
Well done PC. Anti-Semites find it covenient to blame whatever evil they can on “the Jews”.
Roger Woodhouse says
Phil ,perhaos my comment was now out of date .As I replied to similar comments to yours ,the last time I checked the names of the directors was about 20 years ago when infact the jews did outnumber the gentiles.Not sure if they still add the ‘race ‘ to the named directors today but they did then.The Jews certainly did have a great influence in the world of entertainment then and probably still do.It was pure conjecture on my part just what that ‘influence ‘amounted to.
GOLDMANN says
Mr Woodhouse, speak for you’re self 🙄 we never ever ! had anything to do with the BBC for our spiritual teachings etc!????🙄 As Evangelical Christian fundamentist, we have our own churches ,( the 3rd biggest denomination world wide.) brethren.Biblical sound BIBLE teachings 🤷 have a nice day! 😁
Roger Woodhouse says
Sorry but could you explain in English please.Your comment made no sense.
notnolib says
The literal translation of the muslim call to terror (prayer) is actually sung to the tune of the Oscar Meyer bologna jingle. It’s translation is:
Our moon-god has a first name,
it’s a-l-l-a-h.
Our moon-god has no second name,
it’s A-L-L-A-H.
Oh we kill kafir most every-day,
and if you ask to whom we prayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy……….
To kill kafir is a-o-k,
says a-l-l-a-h, oy vey.

Michael Copeland says
Just a reminder of how inadequate the BBC is:
Remember when the service of Mass in Baghdad’s main Church was invaded by armed terrorists in October 2010? They shot the priest in his vestments, arranged bombs round the interior, and demanded the release of terrorist prisoners while the congregation was held hostage. “Survivors spoke of religious taunts, random killings and then a gunman slaughtering hostages en masse as the Iraqi army stormed the church to end the four-hour siege” (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2010/nov/01/baghdad-church-siege-survivors-speak). Fifty-eight people were killed – more than London 7/7 – and many others badly wounded.
In spite of Baghdad being several HOURS ahead of London time the BBC News DID NOT EVEN MENTION IT. They did not mention it the next day either. Only two days later was it covered, the egregious Clive Myrie referring to it as a “disaster”.
Enough said.

The BBC is run by atheist Marxists . They hate Christianity and hate Christians and hate Britain and hate America and especially Israel. They love the EU, The Socialist party, Islam ,Palestine, the UN ,immigration, criminals and anything that will destroy Britain and the West.

I suggest that the BBC has a programme with biblical verses one of which is Paul’s 2nd letter to the Corinthians ch11 v14 about false apostles ”Satan can disguise himself as an angel of light”
