ALBAWABA - A Muslim Sheikh took a mosque's pulpit to warn people not to allow LGBTQ+ members to join pro-Palestinian protests.

A video was shared on Reddit by u/hinamii6 with the caption: "Muslim Sheikh says to beware of "LGBT agenda" during Palestinian protests."

In the footage, the Muslim Sheikh was giving a speech during a mosque gathering when he said that it "can become haram if there are circumstances surrounding this protest that make it haram."

In detail, he added: "From the major of these circumstances that we see occurring is using the picture and the voices of Muslims for other than Islamic agendas."

The Muslim Sheikh continued to say that during the recent pro-Palestinian rallies, LGBTQ+ members were seen as part of the protests taking place in many countries.

He also accused LGBTQ+ members of attempting to use every chance possible to "push their agendas". He also asked Muslims to be more careful and not help them embrace their goals.

"The Muslims are used to push unIslamic agendas," he maintained.

Pro-Palestinian protests took a major center in several countries including the United Kingdom, France, Spain, South Africa, Iraq, Iran and Jordan.
