@BindazChakkar

good point but who said France cannot regulate French?
what’s new in this man? Like in any group, because of the actions of 2% the other 98% also get a bad rap and suffer

First, the population is close to 10%, second there is no “bad rep” here, third nobody is talking about “regulation” here, we are talking about “ban”.

@indik

if it is done with permission and consent of the local authority and not done every day , such cases may not invite ban or criticism .

The act under question is not of “everyday”, lets keep things in perspective.

France is generally more bigoted towards religion among other things, hence their perceptions across the world, but I think even the US might object if roads were being regularly blocked here as well. I don’t know about UK, but then I don’t like their way of ghettonization of the muslim population which has really regressed the growth of the community.

Yes and infringing on the rights of minorities is just the way to go about in a forward thinking manner. Mirch you do know you need permission from the city Municipality to build a mosque? In Bern Switzerland they have refused to allow the building of a mosque for the past 30 years. Muslims in Bern pray in different warehouses and in basements due to the council’s decision.

Same here. People can not build mosques without the cities approval and considering the past 5 yeas of french secularism, their requests have most likely been rejected. To expand or build a mosque you need a permit. From the very same people that banned the prayers in the street.

Ever tried applying to build a Church or Guruduwara in Saudi Arabia. I have not seen any post condeming that.

@Captain1 - population may be 10% but I was referring to that portion of the population which are the rogues and radicals, which has to be a much smaller number.

So now they won’t have to pray in the rain and sleet and snow. This is not a bad thing. The imam in the video said he asked for a place for a masjid 10 years ago, and they finally got it, and he seemed happy about it.

Actually, a lot of people don’t want any religion cluttering up the streets and infringing on the general public.

i think this should end the thread .hope no other country creats such controversy/ problems which can be solved simply by providing space for religious prayers for all religiones
