Yossi BenYakar(@YossiBenYakar):A prominent Muslim cleric with millions of followers, Imam Saleh Al-Fawzan, openly declared: “If you deny the practice of drinking camel urine, you are an apostate, and it becomes permissible to kill you.” He added that killing such a person is a religious duty for the sake of Allah. This is not some random extremist hiding in a cave. This is a mainstream Islamic scholar whose teachings reach millions. How is the West supposed to reconcile this ideology with endless talk of “shared values” and integration? And why is there almost no serious public debate about teachings like these?
