Canada: Call that it is “forbidden” for Muslims to do business with “Zionists” goes out over mosque loudspeaker

“Jewish group calls on Toronto mosque to denounce anti-Semitic ‘prayers,’” JNS, May 19, 2020:

(May 19, 2020 / JNS) Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center (FSWC) on Tuesday called on a Toronto-area mosque to publicly denounce anti-Semitic remarks broadcasted on its property over the weekend.

A man using a loudspeaker at the Jaffari Center, a Shia mosque in Thornhill, recited the Islamic call to prayer and instructed followers to boycott “all the Zionist businesses,” claiming that it is “illegal” and “forbidden” for Muslims to do business with “Zionists.”

He also said the mosque and its followers stood with him against the “illegitimate Zionist regime,” the “betrayal of the holy land” and “whatever kind of evil things they [the Jews/Zionists] do.”
