Islamist groups in Germany threaten LGBTQ people with death on TikTok

The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution says queer people are insulted by the groups as “sick” or “unnatural” – or even threatened with death. Among others, the association “Muslim interaktiv” is said to publicly incite. The group is apparently close to the extremist so-called Hizb-ut-Tahrir (Liberation Party). This was reported by the ARD television magazine REPORT MAINZ on Tuesday evening. As a result, those affected report threats of violence and exclusion – even within their own families.

Hizb-ut-Tahrir has been banned in Germany for being an Islamist extremist organization since 2003. “Muslim interactive” was founded three years ago. The group also incites against the queer community on TikTok. There it has more than 90k followers. In a video, the group says: “However, one thing must be said (…) that LGBTQ expression is not allowed in Islam and never will be. Because Islam does not submit to liberalism, nothing will change the laws of Allah.”

Political scientist Gülden Hennemann said in an interview with REPORT MAINZ: “That is a very clear statement and very anti-democratic. Whoever makes such statements, whoever represents such statements, regardless of the question of whether with violence or without violence, is for me clearly opposed to our free democratic basic order and in fact does not fit into our society either.”

When asked, the group generally stated, “All of our ideas and values stem from our Islamic worldview and are non-negotiable.”

This is how the group presents itself on TikTok:
