Macron Gave French Muslims Two Weeks to Renounce Political Islam, But Little Progress Made Six Weeks On

Muslim groups were given two weeks to sign on to a “Republican values charter” by French President Macron after a series of terror attacks, but six weeks later the groups have yet to agree on and finalise a signed document.

The charter called on Muslim groups to rejected political Islam and reject anti-Semitism, homophobia and other issues frequently observed among those who subscribe to ultra-conservative and radical ideologies of Islam.

The charter refers to political Islam as “the political and/or ideological currents commonly referred to as Wahhabism; Salafism; the doctrine of the Muslim Brotherhood; and more generally any local movement, transnational or international that aims to use Islam to establish a political doctrine,” Le Journal du Dimanche reports.

Three Muslim groups rejected this definition of political Islam, however.

One of these, Musulmans de France, is said to have close ties to the radical Muslim Brotherhood.

Another draft of the charter was created by the Turkish-linked Millî Görüş, one of the largest Islamic groups in Europe, which operates in several countries within the European Union.

I’m not going to shed any tears over the suppression of political Islam, but they sure have a narrower sense of freedom of religion than we do. This seems consistent with the French Déclaration des Droits de l’Homme er Citoyen.

Nul ne doit être inquiété pour ses opinions, même religieuses, pourvu que leur manifestation ne trouble pas l'ordre public établi par la loi.

I would say Islamists ont troublé l’ordre public français sans aucun doute.
