Pakistan’s Minister of State for Industries Ayatullah Durrani is doing his part to confuse people over the false rumor that Barack Obama is a Muslim.
Durrani, noting a lack of a singular leader for Muslims, like Catholics have in a pope, is urging Obama to step forward and take the mantle of leadership.
“The coming Eid would expectedly be observed on 9/11, this a golden opportunity for President Obama to offer Eid prayers at Ground Zero and become Amir-ul-Momineen or Caliph of Muslims. In this way, all the problems of Muslim World would be solved,” Durrani said.
For a man as educated as Durrani is, he has a doctorate in physics, to act this ignorant is simply frightening.
Amidst his impressive scientific background, Durrani was also a member of an Islamic Ideology Council in the 1990’s. He should know that a leader of Muslims should be a Muslim. Suddenly, all the Americans who appear confused about Obama’s faith do not look so ignorant and misguided.
“The time is approaching fast. Barrack Hussein Obama must act now. This is a golden opportunity, Muslims badly need it,” explained Durrani. Durrani suggested that Obama should take the title of “Mulla
h Barrack Hussein Obama” or “Allama Obama.”
This is like pitch-laden kindling for birthers and other conspiracy followers’ bonfire. Orly Taitz quickly put it on her website. Others are seeing it as the proof that Obama is a Muslim after all.
All this proves is that ignorance is cross-cultural.
