Wuhan Corona Virus (COVID19) is a legitimate health concern, but it is no cause for panic or irrational hysteria.

It is not the 21st Century equivalent of the Black Death.’

At least not in our country, we have state of the art medicine and hospitals as well as a team of doctors that are well trained.

But in third world countries, it could be totally different.

Especially in the middle-east where Muslim leaders call for their followers to rely solely on God for the treatment of diseases.

As the New Arab reported Iraqi cleric Muqtada al-Sadr has been mocked online after tweeting he would not accept any coronavirus cure made by the “infidel” United States, as the outbreak’s death toll continues to mount.

But if we thought that this “religious leader” is crazy wait until you watch the video below.

A Muslim preacher speaking on official Palestinian Authority TV said that corona is “one of Almighty Allah’s soldiers” and that Allah is punishing the sinners – “those who attack His believers.”

“The true meaning of the epidemics is a trial from Almighty Allah and a punishment. A trial for the believers and a punishment for the sinners,” said the preacher, whose name was not publicized, according to a translation by the Palestinian Media Watch organization.

“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.”

Watch the video below:

He is insulting so many educated Muslim Doctors. People are not as dumb as he would like them to be. It might work in the Poorest parts of the Middle East under a strict government. So much for preaching about humility and love.
