France: Mosque where terror was being justified closed for 6 months

In the Sarthe region, the state authorities are showing their firmness against the excesses of Muslim religious leaders. According to Ouest-France, on Monday October 25, the prefecture of the department ordered the closure of the mosque of Allonnes, near Le Mans, for six months. Since October 13, the leaders of the AAJM (Association allonnaise pour le juste milieu, editor’s note) and the Al Qalam association, as well as the imams who officiated at the mosque, have been charged with ” justifying terrorism “. The prefecture has since found ” malpractices such as the promotion of a radical practice of Islam ” and the presence of people who ” legitimise armed jihad, martyrdom and the introduction of Sharia law “. The closure was announced this Monday for the 300 worshippers and 110 children of the madrassa. The two associations are also accused of “legitimising terrorist attacks”.

The order issued by the prefecture of the Sarthe department refers to the various abuses committed by these two associations. The document states that in September 2020, after the publication of the Muhammad cartoons by the newspaper Charlie Hebdo, a certain Moulay Driss El Yakoubi gathered young people inside the mosque and said: “These people deserve to die, but we are not in a position of strength”. The state authorities also state in their decree that “this was also the case after the murder of Samuel Paty in October 2020″. The leaders and imams of the mosque rejoiced by calling the perpetrator of the attack on the teacher a martyr. The two associations involved had rejected the ” serious allegations ” on Facebook in mid-October and regretted ” the damage caused to the faithful who attend the mosque and to the Muslim community, which is harmed and stigmatised “.
