Modernizing Islam??? When will a Fatwah be issued on these Turks?

Reader comment on item: Is Turkey's Government Starting a Muslim Reformation?

Submitted by M.D'Souza (United States), May 22, 2008 at 10:33

We've just to wait and see when Ayathollah Khamenei and Osama bin Laden will issue 'fatwahs' on all these Turks of PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan's ruling party.

The Ayathollah and Osama must be grinding their teeth and shivering in their pathan-shoes at the audacity of these Turks to reinterpret and revise the Hadith, which these Islamists consider infallible and staunchly adhere to.

Anyway, we welcome this "Islamic Reformation"!
