Pathetic, delusional intolerance of #Christianity in Turkey: During a TV show about celebrities, Turkish channel TV8 censored a photo of American singer Selena Gomez by blocking out the cross that’s attached to the necklace she was wearing. https://t.co/wFyO6JhZBp — Uzay Bulut (@UzayB) August 4, 2018

Selena Gomez is a bit underdressed here by Islamic standards, but that was less important for Turkish channel TV8 than the cross she was wearing, to which they reacted as any vampire would.

“And their saying, ‘Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah.’ And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but another was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, for certain.” (Qur’an 4:157)

“Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Messenger said, ‘The Hour will not be established until the son of Mary (i.e. Jesus) descends amongst you as a just ruler, he will break the cross, kill the pigs, and abolish the Jizya tax. Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept it (as charitable gifts).'” (Bukhari 3.43.656)
