Al-Khalifa entity has prevented the head of the Islamic Council, Sayed Majeed Al-Mash’al, from leading the worshipers at Imam al-Sadiq Mosque in al- Duraz town and forced him to sign a written pledge not to give religious sermons.
His Eminence was informed about this decision, which is aimed at targeting the religious scholars within a sectarian scheme during the interrogation at Hamad’s City police station on Friday, June 7, 2019. Al-Khalifa entity claimed that there was a ban on the so-called “Administration of Jafariyah Endowments”, as well as another ban from the Ministry of Interior.
On May 18, 2019, His Eminence led the prayers at Imam al-Sadiq Mosque in al-Duraz region, as the prayer of Friday is still prohibited for the 163th week, respectively.
It should be noted that Sayed Majeed al-Mish’al was arrested after about 3 days of his freedom after spending two and a half years in prison because of his defense of religion and rituals and his sit-in in solidarity with His Eminence Ayatollah Qassim. He was summoned by al-Khalifa entity on Wednesday January 30, 2019 to attend at the southern Hamad’s City police station and then released, to be called back on Thursday, January 31 before deciding to detain him, to be released on Wednesday, February 27, 2019.
