MP tells mosques to fly the flag

An MP today urged Muslims across the country to fly the Union flag on mosques to show their unity and commitment to Britain.

Shipley MP Philip Davies wants Muslim communities to adopt the measures after similar demands were made in Australia.

He argued that such a move would "publicly show everyone that those in the Muslim community are very keen to integrate and positively contribute to good community relations in the UK".

Mr Davies was due to table a parliamentary petition today praising the Australian proposal and urging British Muslims to fly the flag in the grounds of mosques.

He said: "Everyone has always said about the importance of community cohesion so what better example could there be for Muslims to make clear their loyalty to the UK by flying the Union flag.

"If it is good enough for them to do it in Australia I do not see why it is not good enough for Muslims to do in Britain.

"This action would demonstrate the Muslim community's commitment to the UK and it is a very effective way of countering any negative publicity."

Mr Davies's move follows similar demands in Australia. The former chairman of the Australian Prime Minister's Muslim reference group, Ameer Ali, pushed for the Australian Muslim community to fly the flag outside the nation's mosques as an expression of the Islamic community's "loyalty" and commitment to the country.

It urged Australia's 300,000 Muslims to back the idea as a symbol of "integration" and pride.

One of Australia's most respected female Muslim leaders, Aziza Abdel-Halim, said displaying a national flag outside mosques would not conflict with Islamic teachings.

However some community members opposed the move. And Mr Davies' suggestion has met with caution among Bradford's Muslim communities.

Ishtiaq Ahmed, spokesman for Bradford Council of Mosques, described the suggestion as "grossly insulting".

He said: "We are totally opposed to this kind of tokenistic approach and badly thought-out idea. Muslims would find it grossly insulting and as far as I am concerned we are citizens of this country and it is wrong to question our integrity and commitment to this country.

"Where will it end? Will people want us to wear the Union Jack on our clothing to prove we are loyal."

Molana Fazal Dad, senior Imam of Abu Bakr Mosque in Leeds Road, said he could understand why the suggestion has been made.

But he said: "But he (Philip Davies) will have to think of mosques as a spiritual place rather then something that involves politics.

"In history mosques have never flown any sort of flag because Islam is a religion that covers every nation.

"Personally, I do have my loyalties to being British but a mosque is somewhere where everyone goes. I do not think this is something a lot of people will take well. They will think somebody is ramming something down their throats.

"Most people who attend mosques have their loyalties to the British Government already so they will think this is to satisfy other people's feelings.

"If it went ahead there is nothing stopping us putting a Union Jack up there - we are part and parcel of the country but it is just the beginning of this process that makes people feel they could be having it forced upon them."

Rashid Awan, president of the Pakistan Society of West Yorkshire, warned against the measure saying hatred could still be bred, despite a flag being flown. He said: "It is unthinkable and unwise. To fly the flag does not really resolve the problem and does not constitute loyalty. People could fly the flag but still be being fed the wrong message and breeding hatred inside. We have to win hearts and minds.

"The British Government is doing that to the best of its ability. The Muslim community is loyal to Britain, except a few people. I would not approve this sort of measures - it is undermining the good work of the Government."

He stressed the bombers responsible for the attacks in which 52 people were murdered in London on July 7, 2005, were British-born. Bary Malik, chairman of Ahmadiya Muslim Association said: "Flying the flag is a wonderful thing and can create unity, but mosques are a place of worship and house of God and does not belong to one nation, but every nation.

"To force this would not be right. Mosques need to be left as places of worship."

I agree with some of the above comments. Flying the flag would not change how people feel in their hearts. The muslim community must make efforts to integrate and be seen to be part of the community by way of actions rather than symbolic gestures. Bary Malik is right, many muslims I know are **** proud to be British, it is a minority that feel that by being loyal to the country they live in and that allows them to express their opinions freely, they are somehow giving up a part of their own culture. This is a myth. The more one integrates the stronger ones own faith becomes.In addition to which, this integration allows others to get closer to the community and understand better what makes them tick.Britain is a great country and everyone who contributes to making it even better, in any way they can, will benefit.

Some people may agree with me and some might disagree, but thats a good things as its classed as freedom of speach and every one thinks differently!

In all due Respect, its only a flag, a flag of a country we have sworn allegiance to, so i dont thik it would be a concern to fly it from a Mosque.

Where my concern comes to surface is:
- Every religious building in the UK, should be made to carry the flag, should they want to go ahead with this inicitive.

And its this type of press that causes issues to develop with a certain minority of muslims, as they feel they are being victimised and singled out.

Ridiculous that it's coming to this. If UK muslims want to be "British", then that would be up to them to fly it, if they wanted.

I'm English(white), NOT british...and therefore don't even recognise the Union as my flag anyway.

To me, and to many, it only symbolises it's hi-jacking by the far right organisations, and is used as a badge of honour for those involved...

so, the question is, WHY would muslims want to "fly the flag" of this GREAT country of ours?

surely..it would be just ASKING for trouble...

all this is getting so out of hand, it's laughable.

Ridiculous that it's coming to this. If UK muslims want to be "British", then that would be up to them to fly it, if they wanted.

I'm English(white), NOT british...and therefore don't even recognise the Union as my flag anyway.

To me, and to many, it only symbolises it's hi-jacking by the far right organisations, and is used as a badge of honour for those involved...

so, the question is, WHY would muslims want to "fly the flag" of this GREAT country of ours?

surely..it would be just ASKING for trouble...

all this is getting so out of hand, it's laughable.

Can I please point out to all non Muslims that Barry Malik and his crony organisation the Ahmadiya Muslim assocation are not Muslims, therefore they do not speak on behalf of the majority of Muslims in Bradford. Secondly a mosque is Gods house and is to be used solely for the purpose of th eworship of God.It is not a community centre, where materialistic stuff is discussed. Does Mr Davies think that by flying the flag make Muslims more British. I dont think so.As long as the colour of my skin remains black or brown, i will never considered British by white bigots.

I think Mr Davies has totally lost the plot or is this just another election stunt?

Many of the comments posted have hit the nail on the head, churches only fly the flag on special occasions.

So why is he singling out mosques? Many leaders have said that instead of enhancing community relations Mr Davies is ruining all the hard work by many organisations and agencies to improve community cohesion.

By uttering just a few words the Shipley MP is trying to stir up hatred within many communities.

Granted, we have not had good publicity across West Yorkshire since the 7/7 bombings but in places like Leeds and Bradford, people of ALL faiths are striving to build bridges and see the good in each other.

Not ALL Muslims are fanatics, not ALL Muslims are extremists and not ALL Muslims are terrorists.

I call this country my home because i was born and bred here and i am also a practicing Muslim.

I am loyal to this country and to the law of the land but i do not feel the need to wear a Union Jack headscarf to prove that.

Maybe Mr Davies should actually visit some places of worship and see how fiercely loyal people are to Britain and maybe then he will stop talking rubbish and concentrate on the real issues that need to be dealt with in his own LOCAL constituency.

P.S Hafaz Saab - take your dirty comments elsewhere, they are not welcome here.

You have got to be kidding. i will not accept this suggestion.If this is the case, then why arent there any union flags on churches, temples and other places of worships. Why has it been just targeted at muslims.Thisa is another example of putting blame and unrest on our shoulders.

England... & not just in cricket also in Football. See its a sport & in Sports you HAVE to support your OWN local/national team. I know that has nothing to do with the original topic, but have you ever asked yourself why most british Born Pakistani's support Pakistan instead of England... Even though they are born & bred here... Could it be because they feel more appreciated by the Pakistani people then their fellow Englishmen... Such as you not realising there are Pakistani's who support England!!!

Who do you think Amir Khan (boxer) is supporting right now!!!

Famous restuarants like Sweet centre in Manningham (Yes Manningham!) had a massive poster cheering England in football world cup. Why is it your asking for things that are already happening? You need to get out more!!!

OK Khan, England are playing Pakistan at cricket, who do you support?
England... & not just in cricket also in Football. See its a sport & in Sports you HAVE to support your OWN local/national team. I know that has nothing to do with the original topic, but have you ever asked yourself why most british Born Pakistani\'s support Pakistan instead of England... Even though they are born & bred here... Could it be because they feel more appreciated by the Pakistani people then their fellow Englishmen... Such as you not realising there are Pakistani\'s who support England!!! Who do you think Amir Khan (boxer) is supporting right now!!! Famous restuarants like Sweet centre in Manningham (Yes Manningham!) had a massive poster cheering England in football world cup. Why is it your asking for things that are already happening? You need to get out more!!!
Thanks you have answered my question, most British born Pakistanis have their loyalty with Pakistan not Britain.
Including you I suspect.
Oh and the reason the Sweet Centre had a poster for England was that it was good for business.

This MP has gone on the right wing bandwagon and seeking extra votes as islam bashing is the biggest vote winner. Mosque, a house of god,,which does not promote nationalism to be used to have a british flag waving on it, pathetic next he will be asking us to hug a pig nad have a photo taken with it. i just come back from puerto bunos and everyone there was just complaining that the british come here, open their own pubs, restaurants etc and refuse to integarte, They expect the spanish to learn english rather than them learn English. The only thing i will be waving to this MP if he comes to my local mosque is my fist.

Churches fly the Union flag, lots of places do. Why not mosques ? If they are in Britain they could easily fly the Union flag, what possible objections could any reasonable person have to that ?

I welcome any kind plan that would help the ideals of integration, however i am not impressed by elected members of Parliament making totally stupendous and poorly thought remarks such as the one by the MP for Shipley. This would mean places of worship, who are asked to stay clear of political issues as the religious logic is out of date, will in effect be endorsing the will of such elected members of Parliament. This would mean that a religious centre would fly the Union Jack until the respective country is devolved, ie Welsh and Scottish places of worship will have to change the Union Jack to thier respective flags. Maybe we should show our real unity, unity for the European Union and hang out flags of rhe EU! One word says it all....Stupid

following the comments from the MP i am absloutely disgusted that any religious place can be used to publicise or endorse the use of any flag. Then again we do live in a democratic country where, during the Great War, the Royal family changed thier name from Wilhiem to Windsor...anything to keep the dumb british public at bay and stop people questioning the executive(governemnt and house of lords) that rule this country. I'm Not happy and will never vote for any political party. JJ

Tilly, If you support England just because they are English then you are dafter than I first thought. That debate went out with Enoch Powell! The team you support are usually based on the skill of that team not their colour or nationality!

In all fairness, I think the Muslims do not need the advise of a Conservative MP on how they should achieve an accepatable level of community cohesion. I just wish Philip Davies and Anne Cryer would bury themselves in a great big hole together and spends the remainder of their lives fantasising how they could wind up people from minority ethnic backgrounds but never bring them out in the open. What we need is leaders who think about their communities not the type we have who come up with useless and sometimes offensive plans.

No churches fly the St George's cross - at least proper churches do.

"No churches fly the St George's cross - at least proper churches do."

Not true sunshine. Only on 23 April; otherwise it is Union Flag or EU Flag or Bradford Diocese Flag

They fly the Union Flag most of all....but if mosques want to fly no flag let them...it was a suggestion.

BTW- Public money and EU funds are used to provide Community Centres for Mosques (Tower Hamlets had one built with EU and British Taxpayer Funds) so don't tell us mosques are purely religious....they receive public funding for all sorts of "Educational" activities
