Homophobe Cleric Cancels Oxford Visit

Islamic cleric Mufti Ismail Menk, who deemed gay sex as bad as “rape”, has axed his national tour which was scheduled to visit Oxford Uni on Thursday 14 November


Islamic cleric Mufti Ismail Menk was set to visit top UK universities such as Oxford, Cardiff and Glasgow, according to a flyer advertised by the Tayyibun Institute. However, yesterday afternoon they announced that his tour was “cancelled until further notice.”

The cleric has previously said that gays are “filthy” and worse than “dogs and pigs.”

Openly gay Islamic preacher Omar Kuddus said: “I am so pleased my fellow LGBTI Muslims are being respected and this tour has now been cancelled.”

The original flyer – which has now been taken down – had wrongly listed the universities with spokespeople from Oxford, Glasgow and Cardiff all quick to stress that no official visit had been sanctioned.
