| Al-Qaradawi |
Norway - A Turkish newspaper has reported that Muslim cleric Yusuf al-Qaradawi, described as “more dangerous than Osama bin Laden” by a Norwegian author, will move to Norway for a short period of time in order to help those living in northern areas of the country with the working out of daily prayer times. Al-Qaradawi, an Egyptian, is known for his controversial announcements, such as his belief that the Holocaust was a divine punishment carried out by Hitler against the Jews. He reportedly believes that husbands can hit their wives and that the age of consent for marriage should be nine years old as long as the girl is a virgin and participates voluntarily. Al-Qaradawi himself married a 14 year-old when he was 60. He has also supported female genital mutilation. The cleric is banned from entering the USA, UK and Israel. He has released over 80 books and has hosted a programme on global news network al-Jazeera watched by up to 40 million people. Full Story>>
