‘Racist, Homophobic’ Muslim Sermon Sparks Outrage

A recent Muslim prayer service at Cornell University has sparked concern and anger among students, who say the sermon was insulting and racist.

Attendees told The Cornell Daily Sun the sermon was “laden with racial and homophobic slurs.”

“Not all homosexuals are pedophiles, but all pedophiles are homosexuals,” the individual said, according to Ihsan Kabir ’14, president of the Committee for the Advancement of Muslim Culture.

The individual … then shouted remarks targeting the LGBTQ community, criticizing President Barack Obama for “being too liberal” in his acceptance of homosexuality.

“Homosexuals are freaks and queers who want a pink earth,” the individual said, according to Kabir.

Not only did the individual target the LGBTQ community, but he also criticized how some Muslim women take off their hijab, or head scarf, after praying, according to Kabir.

“Women are dressing like men, but are naked at the same time,” the speaker said.

The article on the sermon was published today in The Sun. It states that the speaker – whom the paper does not name – is a former university employee.
