Over 130 Muslim religious leaders have refused to say funeral prayers for the terrorists who took part in Saturdays London Bridge attack, a decision that was seen as unprecedented because the ritual is usually performed on the deceased no matter his past actions.
The imams and religious leaders agreed not to say the prayers and urged other leaders to join them. The decision was made as Muslim community leaders came out to support the effort to report extremism in their neighborhoods.
We, as Muslim Imams and religious leaders, condemn the recent terror attacks in Manchester and London in the strongest terms possible, the Muslim leaders said in a statement. Coming from a range of backgrounds, and from across the U.K.; feeling the pain the rest of the nation feels, we have come together to express our shock and utter disgust at these cold-blooded murders. We are deeply hurt that a spate of terror attacks have been committed in our country once more by murderers who seek to gain religious legitimacy for their actions. We seek to clarify that their reprehensible actions have neither legitimacy nor our sympathy.
U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson applauded the move. He said he was encouraged by the imams and said that the decision means they are condemning the attackers souls. The funeral prayer asks for forgiveness of the dead.

I like it. Good news. Thanks for posting.
Lip service intended to show how ‘compassionate’ they are. I’m not buying it, and won’t until I see real reform come out of Islam.
This is a(n intentional) confusing statement to throw us off the attack on islam.
Islam must die .... period.
Thanks and you’re welcome.
There is no purgatory for Moslems. There is no prayer for the dead.
Anyway, Successive Approximations.
Wow, a whole 130. Out of how many Muslims in the U.K.? Sorry, I don’t buy it. 99% sure there was a meeting where something like this was arranged. “We’ll lie to the infidels, try to keep them from rising up against us a little longer by spewing some sympathy. You go ahead and pray over our heroic martyred brothers.”
eff these Imams. Just trickery. Kill them all before they shed their skin and slither off into the crowd.
Taqiiya
When a Jew, Christian, Protestant... dies, thousands of churches and synagogues refuse to say funeral prayers for the deceased. They don’t need to, as the deceased’s local synagogue/church performs the service.
You want to really push their buttons and get their real thoughts. Offer to take the bodies of the terrorists out so some pig farm and feed them to the boars. The large male pigs would have a feast.
Yes that is gross, but it would put a stop to it.
did the tide finally turn
Thanks for your service.
Always loved choppers!
Damn..... those dead guys need to get a democrat judge to force the Imams to pray
It is a start, what with 2 billion members.
Taqiyya to the 130th power.
Islam prayers..... kiss my ass
God put muslims in the SANDBOX where they belong.
Any country that brings them in is STUPID or has an agenda against its own people...
Politicians that support bringing them in are TRAITORS...
LET MUSLIMS TAKE IN MUSLIMS.... otherwise get lost..
The UK people have had it.... soon you will see retaliation...
Unarmed cops .... WHO RAN AWAY FROM THE CRIME...
In Paris 3 Colombians killed a couple islamic terrorists because they were armed... Guns in the hands of good people save lives.
The FBI (if to be believed) say there are 20000+ terrorists in the USA..
Tic toc.... til we have to act... COWBOYS AND MUSLIMS coming our way since the govt does nada...
the terrorists should be “buried” in 55 gallon drums filled with pigs blood. and videos of the “burials” should be widely disseminated.
Agreed. Total BS
