Muslims 'annoyed' by support for Trump, says Islamic scholar

Doha (AFP) - A leading Islamic scholar has claimed Muslims are "annoyed" by the level of support among Americans for US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

"This is really annoying us so much that he has these levels of support," he said.

"We do not want this for the American people or America, which was founded on democracy, freedom and pluralism.

"His remarks are not consistent with common sense or moral values ​​because he is not honest and exploits attacks on Islam in order to gain access to power," Qara Daghi added.

The IUMS is an influential but controversial organisation based in Doha.

It is headed by Yusuf al-Qaradawi, considered a spiritual guide to Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood, who were ousted from power in the North African country in 2013 and later blacklisted.

During his campaign, Trump notably called for Muslims to be banned from entering the US amid concerns over security.

“Annoyed” is good. Dead is best! I go for the “best”.

Just annoyed? Not in a murderous rage?

Gee, they like him.

Or just maybe they just realize they don’t want to piss him off.

Cowardly mass murderers are like that.

Killing unarmed civilians for Allah is one thing. Dealing with a President who calls you out and kills you dead is another. Wanna see fanatical Muslims turn moderate? Bingo.

"We do not want this for the American people or America, which was founded on democracy, freedom and pluralism.

And we all know that Muslim scholars and the Muslim Brotherhood are about nothing but democracy, freedom and pluralism.

Wait, wut?

You want “annoyed” you goat banging, woman raping, kid raping, non-thinking POS filth? There are a great many of Americans ready to rip your gonads off and feed them to you and your moronic followers.

Most of us here are not EU pussies. Push your idiocy here and Vos Das Blinkin Lights.

Lol, Mr. Daghi, you show a fundamental and painful mis-understanding of the American psyche. Americans tend to not give a damn about what a foreigner THINKS about ANYTHING but particularly a rag-head.
