A solidarity protest planned in Dublin on the 22nd of May at 2pm outside the Belgian embassy looks set to go ahead as many continue to voice their support for their oppressed brothers and sisters in Belgium and France.
The freedom to manifest religion and belief individually or with others is protected and considered fundamental to freedom of expression under International law, but Belgium and France look set to strip these rights from Muslim women under the spurious pretexts of security and cultural incompatibility.
This protest has been called to:
1. express our solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Belgium and France, who will also hold similar protests at the same time and date.
2. send a signal to the Irish government that any attempts to impinge the fundamental rights of Muslims here will be met with similar resolve
3. fulfill our duty of brotherhood in Islam, to affirm our party affiliation and to protest oppression:
Help you one another in Al-Birr and Taqwa; but do not help one another in sin and transgression.” 5:2
You will not find a people who believe in Allah and the Last Day having affection for those who oppose Allah and His Messenger, even if they were their fathers or their sons or their brothers or their kindred. Those – He has decreed within their hearts faith and supported them with spirit from Him. And We will admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide eternally. Allah is pleased with them, and they are pleased with Him – those are the party of Allah . Unquestionably, the party of Allah – they are the successful. 58:22
And fight them on until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in Allah altogether and everywhere; but if they cease, verily Allah doth see all that they do. 8:39
We will keep you posted as the time nears and should you require any further information, please contact us at info@mpac.ie.
