In line with its actions against the growing threat of terrorism in the country and the regions, Egypt has announced ban on books on extremism and the Muslim Brotherhood in Mosques. The action will be implemented in the next 15 days, announced the Egyptian Ministry of Endowments.
Egyptian minister
Mohammed Mokhtar Gomma stressed on the decision saying that the government will
be going through the books in the libraries of the mosques and there will be
proper re-examining of those literature, magazines and other things. They will be
removed if it is found that they have extremist ideology or belong to any
particular extremist group.
He also emphasized that those who did not adhere to the ruling or the directive, will
have to bear tough punishments. Mokhtar further warned all the imams to take a
pledge to not allow any books to be included in the mosque libraries until they
receive permission from the General Administration of Religious Guidance in the
Ministry’s general office.
Other than the
books, they will also not be allowed to contain any poster inside or outside
the mosques that connect to an terror body or believes in extremist mentality.
Another monster responsible for running the head of the religious sector at the
Ministry of Endowments Hisham Abdel Aziz also highlighted that the
administration is working towards re-examining the books available at the
libraries.
