“The true meaning of the epidemics is a trial from Almighty Allah and a punishment,” claimed a preacher on Palestinian TV recently.
Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared the coronavirus a “pandemic,” instituting a quarantine for all those who enter the country as a an aggressive strategy to thwart the deadly virus’ spread.
It appears that a preacher on Palestinian TV has a very different concept of the virus, claiming it’s a “trial for the believers and a punishment for the sinners.”
According to this preacher, “If the epidemic harms non-believers, from among the abusers and the aggressors, then that is punishment. … This virus is one of Almighty Allah’s soldiers, and He is unleashing it on those who attack His believers.”
