Yvonne Kussmann wrote that the French teacher Samuel Paty was murdered on October 16, 2020, in the Paris suburb of Conflans-Sainte-Honorine by an 18-year-old Chechen. The 47-year-old regularly addressed Mohammed cartoons from Charlie Hebdo in class regarding freedom of speech. A Muslim student, who according to Kussmann was not present during the relevant class, felt offended in her religion and told her father about it. According to Kussmann, the father urged Muslims to take action against Paty and spread a video about him. An Islamist who was already known to the police in France supported the call. The later perpetrator, Abdullah Ansorov, learned about the incident through the video, asked students about Paty's habits, and offered money for information. On October 16, he confronted Paty on his way home and beheaded him with a 35-centimeter-long knife; shortly thereafter, he was shot by the police. Kussmann regarded the case as a sign of the advanced influence of Islam in European schools. She also wrote that Paty had been reported for distributing pornographic materials to minors and had in turn filed a complaint for defamation. The reaction from Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sparked outrage: he had not commented for 14 days and then stated that freedom of expression is not limitless and should not harm anyone. #SamuelPaty #Meinungsfreiheit #Islam2020 (translated)

During the trial, it became known that he had planned further attacks on politicians, including Michael Gove, whom he considered harmful to Muslims. The jury reached their verdict after 18 minutes. When the verdict was announced, Ali refused to stand. Amess is survived by his wife and five children, Kussmann wrote. #Terrorismus #Politik #Gedenktag (translated)

Yvonne Kussmann recalled that the conservative politician Sir David Amess was stabbed on October 15, 2021, during a public meeting in a church in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex.

Christian Marcussen wrote that Afrah Al-Jabouri had posted a video on social media where she pulled Ali's double-edged sword out of a gold-plated sheath. According to him, the video had received 27,484 likes, and Al-Jabouri described herself in it as 313 percent Shia. Marcussen wrote that the number 313 referred both to the number of warriors in the Battle of Badr, which he described as the Muslims' first military victory after a planned caravan attack from Muhammad, and to the 313 individuals who, according to an Islamic belief, were to make up the core of an army when the twelfth imam returned before the Day of Judgment. He wrote that the army was to bring the whole world under Islam. He concluded by saying that Airport Security must regret having fired such a skilled creator of content for social media. #Islam #AfrahAlJabouri #SocialeMedier (translated)

Yvonne Kussmann wrote that the response of the Hessian state government to an inquiry from the AfD states that there are a total of 4,495 prisoners in adult and youth detention as of March 31, 2026. Of these, 1,865 were of Christian faith (41.49 percent), including 841 members of Protestant churches, 712 Catholics, and 312 Orthodox churches. 1,487 prisoners were Muslim (33.08 percent). Compared to a Muslim population share of about 10 percent in Hesse, Muslims are thus approximately three times overrepresented in correctional facilities, Kussmann wrote. For the Rockenberg Juvenile Detention Center, she mentioned 131 prisoners, including 78 Muslims (59.54 percent), 17 members of Protestant, 16 Catholic, and two Orthodox churches. In Wiesbaden, there were 162 prisoners, including 79 Muslims (48.77 percent), 14 members of Protestant, 17 Catholic, and five Orthodox churches. Furthermore, nine prisoners were affiliated with Buddhism and twelve with Judaism across the state. 775 made no statement, for which Kussmann cited a proportion of 1724 percent; 328 were without denomination (7.30 percent). According to Kussmann, the state government does not want to specify the number of extremist or radicalization-relevant prisoners. She wrote that politically motivated crime is subdivided into five areas: For right-wing politically motivated crime (PMK), there is a medium double-digit number of prisoners, almost exclusively Germans; for left-wing PMK, there is a low single-digit number, exclusively Germans. For foreign ideology PMK, she mentioned a low double-digit number, including Syrians and others; for religious ideology PMK, a low to medium double-digit number, including Germans, Syrians, Afghans, Iraqis, and others. In the case of other classifications, the number is low double-digit and the prisoners are exclusively Germans. As examples of the listed crimes, Kussmann mentioned among others murder, attempted murder, terrorist organizations, genocide, rape, fraud, and driving without a license. #Hessen #Justiz #Gefängnisse (translated)

Egyptson wrote that he had reported SVT Politics Bureau to the Broadcasting Committee for radio and television after a program that aired on September 23, 2026, at 7:30 PM. The report concerned a statement made by religious scholar Simon Sorgenfrei about the religiosity and secularization of Swedish Muslims. Egyptson stated that his objection did not concern the fact that Sorgenfrei was interviewed or presented his scientific assessment. Instead, he questioned whether such a general statement about Swedish Muslims could be presented as a research finding without viewers being informed about limitations in the research data. He also wrote that SVT, in his opinion, had a responsibility to present scientific claims factually and with necessary clarifications. https://t.co/QiECY2D7vX #SVT #Granskningsnämnden #vetenskap (translated)

Sharmarke Said Aw-Musse mentioned that he had considered writing about the discussions of the last few days, but assessed that it would not be constructive. Instead, he decided to go for a run and thanked those who had sent supportive messages, as well as those who had condemned the discussions surrounding Muslims. #keskustelu #tuki #juoksu (translated)

Hannele Al-Hamzawi wrote that imams and other Muslims were asked for a direct stance on supporting sharia law, as in her opinion, merely stating that Finnish law applies to Muslims was not a sufficient answer. She justified this by saying that according to sharia law, laws made by people cannot be above Allah's law. https://t.co/xFZ7q2Yt5M #Sharialaki #Islam #Suomi (translated)

Egyptson criticized Simon Sorgenfrei's statement in SVT's Politikbyrån that Swedish Muslims were largely secularized. He wrote that Sorgenfrei was presented as a professor of religious studies and made the statement after 22 minutes and 53 seconds into the program. According to Egyptson, Sorgenfrei shifted focus in the next sentence to studies about individuals with roots in countries where the majority are Muslims. Egyptson argued that this group was not the same as Swedish Muslims, as origin and family background do not necessarily determine a person's religious self-identification. Egyptson wrote that he had not found any Swedish study that directly supported Sorgenfrei's broad formulation. He also argued that the same demand for precision that Sorgenfrei had previously placed on research about the Muslim Brotherhood should apply here as well. He referred readers to his article in Fokus and the comment section. #religion #forskning #sekularisering (translated)

Tom Jensen wrote that Pia Kjærsgaard apparently had been vindicated at the Folk High School. Referring to TV 2's revelation, he wrote that Afrah al-Jabouri stopped in the security department at Copenhagen Airport in 2022 after employees became aware of posts on her TikTok account that corresponded to posts Kjærsgaard had confronted her about during a breakfast. Jensen wrote that an employee had warned management about two screenshots in which al-Jabouri allegedly confirmed that she was a terrorist and responded that she had not yet bombed anyone. He added that more people became aware of the matter. https://t.co/rOrPzPtCKR #Danmark #Sikkerhed #Muslimer (translated)
