Former MB General Guide Mahdi 'Akef: To Hell with Anyone who Does Not Accept Islamic Rule




(MEMRI) — Following are excerpts from an interview with Egyptian cleric Mahdi ‘Akef, former General Guide of the Muslim Brotherhood, which aired on Al-Kahera Wal-Nas TV on August 11, 2012. 
Mahdi ‘Akef: To hell with anyone who does not accept the Islamic rule that the people want. Why? Because the people should… We are a people who talk about democracy and the rule of the people… 
Interviewer: Does democracy mean the imposing of Islamic rule on the people? 
Mahdi ‘Akef: No! It is the people that are imposing it, not us. 
Interviewer: When the people elected Dr. Morsi, they were not electing Islamic rule. 
Mahdi ‘Akef: They elected Dr. Morsi for the cultural enterprise that he declared, which is based upon Islam. 
Interviewer: … It is a national enterprise, not the establishment of an Islamic state… 
Mahdi ‘Akef: With your permission… I don’t want to beat around the bush. I’m a straightforward man. When Morsi presented his cultural enterprise for the revival of Egypt, he did so from an Islamic perspective, not a secular one.
