During a January 7, 2017 address at the Al-Khulafa Al-Rashideen Mosque in Sixth of October City near Cairo, Egyptian cleric Samir Hashish referred to a hadith in Sahih Al-Bukhari that says that Muslims should not be put to death for killing infidels, and he said that some people use this hadith to justify killing non-Muslims. He explained that Muslims are not put to death for killing infidels because their blood is worth more. The video was recently posted online.
This happens all over the Arab World. Leaders use extreme religious rhetoric to exploit people's faith to gain political power.
The media is turning a blind eye to this radical Islamic rhetoric to avoid damaging the image of Islam.
