Preacher: Sharia opponents are ‘infidels’

Islamic preacher Wagdi Ghoneim called for Sharia to be implemented in Egypt in a tweet Friday, while castigating its opponents as "infidels."

"The infidel and hater of Islam is the only one who refuses the application of Sharia and calls for canceling or twisting Article Two," Ghoneim said on Twitter. "And there are infidels in the Egyptian community who call themselves liberals, seculars or modernists."
 
"How come you call yourselves Muslims then fight Islam?" Ghoneim added. "Regardless of the Muslim Brotherhood, Salafists and other Islamic groups, the Egyptian people primarily love their religion. The one who does not want the application of God's law should completely get out of His universe."
 
Ghoneim lives in Egypt after having previously been refused reentry to the US for allegedly fundraising for Hamas. He has also been refused entry to the UK after being accused of stirring religious hatred.
