Reunion: Moslem Community Rallying Cry · Global Voices
Alice Backer

Zarabes writes (Fr): “We members of the moslem community of la Reunion, are watching powerless the current events in Palestine and Lebanon. Tired of the ambiant silence, we ask the various heads of the island's masjids to hold a common discourse next Friday (July 28, 2006) for the salat of d'jouma or to delegate this task to the officiating Imam on that day. We suggest that all the bayanes that will take place this friday talk about the topic that currently preoccupies the Islamic world i.e. the slaying of our brothers, sisters and children in Palestine and Lebanon.”
