Egypt’s Al-Jamaa Al-Islamiya: Al-Sisi is waging a war against Islam

Vice president of the Shura Council of the Egyptian Islamic Group (al-Jamaa al-Islamiya) Osama Hafez said that Abdel-Fattah Al-Sisi‘s statements on the role of Islam in politics “aim at pleasing the west at the expense of Islam.”

“Al-Sisi has been waging a war against Islam since the military coup,” Hafez said.

Hafez added that Al-Sisi’s statements on the “war on terrorism” are in line with those by Western leaders “whose real war is against Syria, Egypt and Libya.”
