The "He Used the Friday Prayer Objection as a Political Tool" Claim

The objection is jurisprudential from the outset: an obligatory prayer that can be performed with precautions in place is not given up. The measures he proposed are the same as those applied when the mosques opened on 29 May 2020.

The Claim That He Opposed the Coronavirus Measures

He said "I am not against the measures, but I am against their being exaggerated"; on masks, distance and hand-washing he said he would follow the experts. His objection was not to the measure but to a distinction that distance could not explain.

Distorted
