Imam Mundhir Abdallah, a member of Hizb ut-Tahrir, delivered a sermon in March 2017 that included the following statement:[3][4]
Doomsday will not come before the Muslims fight the Jews, such that the Muslims kill them, and the Jew will hide behind rock and trees, and the rock and the trees will say: "O muslim, O worshipper of God, there is a Jew behind me, so come and kill him".
—Mundhir Abdallah
In July 2018 Abdallah was charged with §266(b) and §136 part 3 of the penal code (respectively nicknamed racismeparagraffen and forkynderloven), the latter of which prohibits religious teachers from including express approval of certain crimes, including manslaughter, in religious instruction.[5] The defense argued that Abdallah should be acquitted because the sermon was based on a Hadithic quote, because it was meant to refer to Israel rather than Jews in general, and because it was meant as a "prophecy" rather than an encouragement. Abdallah was found guilty on both charges.[6][7]
On 21 June 2019, Abdallah stated in a sermon that the rulers and heads of state of Muslim countries, such as Iran, UAE, and Saudi Arabia, were serving crusader countries (United States), and that Jerusalem was occupied by Zionists.[8]
