Hagia Sophia desecration: Hundreds of children shout “Allahu Akbar” (video)

As the video shows, first someone tells the children the phrase "takbeer" and then they all shout "Allahu akbar"

Newsroom August 3 01:46

Infuriating images from inside the Hagia Sophia, when hundreds of children shout the well-known Islamist slogan “Allahu Akbar”.

The event took place in the context of the “Hagia Sophia Summer School Meeting”, organized by the TÜGVA (Turkish Youth Foundation), in which Bilal Erdogan, the son of the president of Turkey, is reported to have an administrative position.

The images from the interior are typical. As the video shows, first someone tells the children the phrase “takbeer” and then they all shout “Allahu akbar” (Allah is great) all together.

A few days ago, on the anniversary of the conversion of Hagia Sophia into a mosque, Turkish media referred to the two special editions as well as the documentary presented by the Directorate of Communications of the Turkish Presidency.

The President of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, wrote the foreword to one of the two books, recalling that a presidential decree on July 10, 2020 ensured the reopening of Hagia Sophia as a mosque.

“Glory be to Allah, who gave us the opportunity to restore the symbol of the Fall, the will and trust of the Conqueror, Hagia Sophia, to its original state 86 years later. May the resurrection of Hagia Sophia be once again beneficial”, Erdogan said in a message on Twitter.
