Taqiyya: “Speaking is a means to achieve objectives. If a praiseworthy aim is attainable through both telling the truth and lying, it is unlawful to accomplish it through lying because there is no need for it. When it is possible to achieve such an aim by lying but not by telling the truth, it is permissible to lie if attaining the goal is permissible..., and obligatory to lie if the goal is obligatory. ...One should compare the bad consequences entailed by lying to those entailed by telling the truth, and if the consequences of telling the truth are more damaging, one is entitled to lie". -Ahmad ibn Naqib al-Misri, The Reliance of the Traveller

There are 1.6 million Muslims in Britain.

They only found 20 to protest this? LOL

I feel sorry for this 20. May they RIP.
