 EXCLUSIVE 

Ima'am of Windsor Castle

 

 
Queen ... and royal residence Windsor Castle

THE QUEEN was praised yesterday after converting a room at Windsor Castle into a MOSQUE.

She took the historic step so Muslim staff have a quiet place to pray during Ramadan, Islam’s holiest month.

 

 
Prayer ... Castle worker Nagina

And the part-time sales assistant who asked for the special area has hailed the Queen as “an example to the world”.

Thrilled Nagina Chaudhry, 19, of Slough, Berks, said: “I can’t believe the Queen went to so much effort. She pulled out the stops to create a prayer room for me and other Muslim staff.

“It was an incredible act of kindness within her own home.

“The Queen is the head of the Church of England so it’s great to know she respects other people’s faith.”

Muslims fast during daylight through Ramadan, which began on Sunday. The prayer room is in a former office in the Saxon Tower, close to the castle’s St George’s Chapel.

A castle spokeswoman said: “We have staff from all walks of life. So when people request facilities for their beliefs we try and provide them.”

If anyone would kindly point out any leader of a Muslim nation who has done something similar for Christians (or Buddhists or Jews or any faith other than Islam) I would be very interested in hearing about it.

[Red Badger]

They cut off the heads of Christians and Jews so they don't have to pray anymore.......

[StACase]

Where was the "barf" alert?

“The Queen is the head of the Church of England so it’s great to know she respects other people’s faith.”

Especially since your religion has no respect for non Muslims.

A good master will know his natural superiority and will make gestures of goodwill and not feel the need to belittle his servants.

Think the queen will convert a room to a chapel where Catholic employees can attend mass?

I don't know if it's senility, inbreeding or the influence of her dimwitted son, but the queen seems to be losing her marbles.

When are the British going to stop bankrolling these fools?

[ArcadeQuarters]

The real world has caught up with scrappleface.

"They cut off the heads of Christians and Jews so they don't have to pray anymore......."


Maybe if we're nice to them they'll love us and not use a rusty knife when they cut our heads off...

[Paperdoll]

Her royal highness just lost the last shred of respect I had for her. I'd heard that the Windsors were a tad light on brainmatter, but I didn't know it extended to their value system. A sad turn of events for the head of the Episcopal Church.

Wow I bet the King of England that led the Crusades to get the Jersulem back from the Muslims

Link to another thread where this has already been discussed based on a slightly less sensationalised article:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1711099/posts

An employee asked for somewhere where they could pray quietly in their lunch hour, a spare office was suggested. Not sure how that constitutes it being 'converted into a mosque'!

[Canard]

"Think the queen will convert a room to a chapel where Catholic employees can attend mass?"

Well I doubt it, but if they wanted to borrow a room to pray during their lunch hour, I expect that could be accomodated as well.

Why anyone would want to be the slave of a baby raper is beyond me.

Why anyone would allow the slave followers of said child molester to build places of servitude to the POS aka muuuhamhead (Pigs be inseminating her) is also beyond comprehension!

Coming soon to a White House near you.

[Marysecretary]

I think Prince Charles had a lot to do with it. He seems to be leaning that way.

[Eastbound]

And not to be outdone, the Lincoln bedroom at the White House will be converted to a mosque to accommodate visiting dignitaries of the religion of love and peace.

(Prolly not, but, hey, who knows?)

[Scotsman will be Free]

The Queen will be paid back in blood by her muslim hired hands.
When are people going to learn that kissing muslim asses only gets you chapped lips?

[sageb1]

"Not sure how that constitutes it being 'converted into a mosque'!"

Once a Muslim holy place, always a Muslim holy place.

[BW2221]

Don't bet on it. They're (gasp) Catholics) not Muslims.

Seriously, why not just dump the Royal family? Have an annual beauty contest. The winner becomes queen and the runners-up become princesses. They can do all the things the Royal family does like presiding over the grand opening of car washes, convenience stores, etc., cost a lot less and look much better doing it.
