London (PTI): Britain's Prince Charles has visited a mosque in north-west London and met Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin, the top spiritual leader of Dawoodi Bohra Muslims.
Prince Charles, who met Syedna Burhanuddin and his son Prince Qaidjoher Ezzuddin on Wednesday, praised the Muslim leaders for valuing Islam and its traditions. Dawoodi Bohra Muslims, a sect of the Shia Muslims, numbers around 6,000 in Britain.
"It is heart-warming for our community and all Muslims residing in the UK, that the heir to the throne of the country they live in values their religion and traditions," Prince Ezzuddin told the gathering.
One of the key principles of the sect is "patriotism as part of the faith." It encourages followers to make a positive contribution to the country they live in.
The word Bohra means trader, and traditionally most members of the sect have been entrepreneurs - most notably, NRI entrepreneur, Sir Gulam Noon, whose curry empire supplies thousands of Indian meals to supermarkets.
This is why Liz is going to hang on and try to live as long as her Mum did.
He’s an unbelievable disgrace.
Well, at the rate things are going in another few decades Islam will be the only legal religion in the world. He’s just getting ahead of the curve.
Where’s that goofy picture of Chuck wearing the pillbox hat?
What a jerk. No wonder his mother won’t step down.
Maybe “onnie Prince Charlie” should read what one of his most heroic countrymen have to say about the Islamics..
“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property - either as a child, a wife, or a concubine - must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die. But the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytising faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science - the science against which it had vainly struggled - the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.”
Sir Winston Churchill, The River War
Did he convert?
Probably not, too effeminate to be a Muzzie anyway.

Who will convert to Islam first, Obama or Charles?
Just what the hell happened to this jerk with his infatuation with the death cult?
Chuck best remember what happened to King Charles the First, when he messed with religion.
Thanks for this lead. Charles is quite the globalist. Islam seems to be gaining ground against New Age as the global religion.
The evidence is substantial.
William must accede to the throne! Charles is deeply misguided.
