Matias Nieminen wrote that Orpo should ask a native Finnish old person instead of a Somali imam how well he is treated in Finland. Nieminen described the elderly person waiting alone for a brief visit from home care and lying in old diapers. #suomi #politiikka #arvot #suomi #politiikka #vanhukset (translated)

Matias Nieminen wrote that it would help the matter if Said Aw Musse, whom he calls an imam, would respond to the questions posed to him. He asked whether this supported Sharia law and added that clarifying the issue would be easy in his opinion. #suomi #maahanmuutto #sharialaki #kysymykset #Suomi (translated)

Jari Mäkäräinen criticized Sanna Ukkola's writing about the Prime Minister's meeting with Imam Sharmarke Said Aw-Mussen. According to Mäkäräinen, Ukkola regarded the meeting as ordinary work and believed that the imam, who was born in Turku, was being asked impossible questions regarding Sharia. Mäkäräinen argued that asking the imam was not a misunderstanding: in his view, the imam left open whether Sharia would be applied in Finland in family or criminal law matters. Mäkäräinen wrote that, according to him, freedom of religion did not justify the establishment of a parallel legal system alongside Finnish laws. He claimed that in Muslim-majority countries, freedom of religion, women's equality, and individual rights were not realized in liberal democracies due to Islamic doctrine and Sharia. He cited Lebanon as an example, where he believed the growth of the Muslim population and political organization undermined previous balance and led to civil war. In France, Sweden, Belgium, and Britain, he mentioned the visibility of parallel societies, honor-based violence, segregation of areas and schools, and pressure to accept practices related to Sharia. In Finland in the 2000s, Mäkäräinen claimed that groups with a Muslim background who had immigrated were connected to the overrepresentation of sexual offenses, unemployment, use of social security, and demands for their own rules. He believed that distinguishing criticism of Islam from calls for deportation did not make questions about Sharia suspect. According to Mäkäräinen, the primacy of the Finnish Constitution and criminal law should be clear in all matters, and Finland did not need to repeat the experiences of countries where the application of Sharia had been tried. https://t.co/bGpZ7VaTux #uskonnonvapaus #integratio #muslimit (translated)

The author said that Islam could be criticized harshly and mentioned that he had done so himself. However, according to him, urging an imam born in Finland to return to his home country and the cheering of thousands of people were something entirely different. #monikulttuurisuus #kotoontuminen #uskonto #FI (translated)

Keijo Kaarisade wrote that when condemning the oppression of women, it was agreed, in his opinion, to speak vaguely about religions and cultures without referring to Islam. He criticized that a member of the National Coalition Party had been assigned to the matter and they themselves had followed along, and said that he would have to explain the issue to the imam again with Petteri. https://t.co/bbPqxHiqBm #naistenoikeudet #uskonto #kulttuuri (translated)

Tuulia Alanko wrote that the imam's statement about Finnish law applying to Muslims did not, in her opinion, answer the question of the status of sharia law nor did it exclude the possibility of considering it important. She described the response as misleading. Alanko claimed that Aw-Musse had not distanced himself from sharia law or the idea of separate sharia courts in Finland. She suggested that this was related to both the imam's role and the fact that messages pleasing to Finns might be beneficial in the long term. According to Alanko, Aw-Musse could have directly stated that he did not want to replace Finnish laws with an Islamic legal system. Alanko finally referred to Jari Sarasvuo's statement that sharia or a parallel culture was not needed in Finland. #Suomi #Islam #Šaria (translated)

The Listener podcast announced in episode #107 that it had interviewed Hannele Al-hamzawi, who, according to the podcast, had lived as a member of the Muslim community for 16 years and was now sharing her experiences in the Finnish Muslim community for the first time. The episode also discussed how Al-hamzawi prevented an honor killing, the visibility of Islam in the daily lives of Muslims, parallel societies in Finland, as well as Muslims' perceptions of Finnish men and women. The podcast stated that the episode was scheduled to be released on Sunday at 12 PM on Spotify and other platforms. It also claimed that the imams did not want people to listen to the episode. #kuuntelija #podcast #muslimiyhteisö (translated)

Klaus said he had responded to a user named Sukkola, who he claimed had blocked him. He stated that his criticism was directed at Said Aw-Musse's position as a religious authority rather than at his personal actions. Klaus described classical Sunni Islam as a tradition in which sharia is seen as divinely ordained and as a legal system superior to human laws. According to him, it included legal, moral, and social rules regarding, among other things, testimony, inheritance, apostasy, and legislative authority. Klaus wrote that Aw-Musse had studied theology in Saudi Arabia and worked in a mosque where the teachings of Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab had been used. He described this figure as an ultra-conservative thinker who demanded the return of Islam to its literal roots. According to Klaus, Aw-Musse's refusal to clarify his position on the primacy of Finnish law and the status of sharia justified suspicion. Merely following the law, in his opinion, did not indicate whether he considered the constitutional order of Finland to be just and final or a temporary imposition. Klaus expressed a desire to know what kind of Finland Aw-Musse envisioned in 50 or 100 years. Klaus believed that questions regarding women's rights, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and criminal law were not leading him into a trap but were inquiries into whether Aw-Musse accepted the principles of the Finnish rule of law. He deemed Aw-Musse's public stance significant for its societal relevance due to his religious role. According to Klaus, integration required not only adherence to the law but also acceptance of fundamental values. #uskonto #oikeudet #kulttuuri (translated)

The Listener podcast announced that it would release an episode the following day, which it claimed would be noteworthy. It said there would be a woman as a guest who had spent about 16 years in the Muslim community of Turku, and she claimed that the imams did not want people to watch the episode. #podcast #turku #muslimiyhteisö (translated)

The author expressed that they were shocked by the discussion surrounding Imam Sharmarke Said Aw-Mussen. They wrote that Muslims were constantly required to assimilate, respect Finnish values, and participate in social discourse, noting that the imam was now trying to do just that. #kotoutuminen #yhteiskunta #keskustelu #FI (translated)

According to the author, there was an uproar over Prime Minister Petteri Orpo's meeting with the imam, even though meetings with leaders of religious communities were part of the Prime Minister's duties. The author stated that the imam said that Finnish law applied to everyone, including Muslims, but according to him, he was still pressed on sharia as if it were a crime. The author found this repugnant and racist. #uskonto #rasismi #Suomi #FI (translated)

Small, marginalized, and oppressed Islam longs for PR visibility and advertising space, but preferably paid for by others. HS responds to the cry of the oppressed and offers a free front page and a fragrant personal portrait of the 'hardworking' imam. 🤗 The villains of the story: racists, the National Coalition Party, and the Finns Party. #electioncoming #vaalittulossa https://t.co/dv7vrOALa4 #pr #media #yhteiskunta (translated)

Helsingin Sanomat did a big piece on the imam of Myyrmäki. Hesari would have had a good opportunity to ask what politically active @SaidAwmusse thinks about the application of Sharia law in Finland or even about women's clothing. But they didn't ask. The reason is likely that Hesari wants to portray Aw-Mussen as nice, jovial, and oppressed, which a Saudi Arabia-trained imam is certainly not. #Myyrmäki #Sharia #HelsinginSanomat (translated)

Aw-Musse was born in Turku, went to school in Dubai, and studied Islam in Saudi Arabia. Then Aw-Musse returned to Finland to teach Islam in primary school. Now Aw-Musse is the imam of Myyrmäki. https://t.co/M2QZ58qe3d #Islam #Koulutus #Suomi (translated)

Ruotsin vaalivilppiepäilyt ja imaamien ohjaama äänestäminen herättivät kokoomuslaiset syyttelemään vasemmistoa ja demareita. Hauskaa seurata tätä teatteria. Kun mä kerroin tästä ilmiöstä Turun kokoomuksessa, väitteitäni sanottiin absurdeiksi. Nyt kun se palvelee omaa politiikkaa, kyseessä onkin vakava uhka. Katsokaa ensin omaan pesäänne ennen kuin osoittelette muita. #politiikka #vaalit #Suomi

"Vantaan imaami" "Musse" suututtaa ja viihdyttää. Jotkut epäilevät että hänen käsikirjoittajansa on varjoista vaikuttava vasemmistolainen takapiru. Toiset taas vertaavat Mussea Sacha Baron Cohenin hahmoihin. Joka tapauksessa hienosti käsikirjoitettu. #hattukäteen #uskonveli https://t.co/vTuNoZLG9E #Vantaa #humor #kulttuuri

Kannattaako imaami sharia-lakia? No, kannattaako hän hengittämistä? Totta hitossa hän kannattaa sharia-lakia. Ei hän olisi sekuntiakaan imaami jollei kannattaisi. Feministeille olisi hommia, miksi ei kelpaa? Mistä täysi hiljaisuus? #sharialaki #feminismi #imaami
