Who Is Targeting Muslims? by Les May

YESTERDAY I was sent an image of a leaflet which seemed to be aimed at Muslims. It was headed ‘Vaccine Warning’ and ‘Vaccines = Poison’ and included ‘They are attempting to dismantle your family, your culture and your faith’. The person who sent it to me raised the possibility that it originated with a Far Right organisation attempting to sow discord and dissuade Muslims from gaining the protection afforded by the available vaccines. This seems a reasonable possibility as it contains at least some untruths about matters which might weigh heavily with followers of Islam.

For example: the vaccine contains animal products (not true), the vaccine has been cultured using aborted fetal cells HEK293 cells (not true), the vaccine will change your DNA (not true), Imams and Sheikhs have either been bought, paid or bribed to push the vaccine (no evidence is provided and I am extremely doubtful that this is true).

As my wife and I have been fully vaccinated and now have some protection against becoming very ill if we are exposed to the virus which causes Covid 19 and would like others to have the same protection, irrespective of their faith or lack of it, I quote below part of a more detailed statement which can be found at:

The Australian Fatwa Council consulted with Muslim doctors and medical experts who specialise in the field of vaccines and viruses seeking clarity on the composition of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine and its effects. The following was the outcome; The Muslim doctors and medical experts scientifically confirmed that the vaccines (specifically: Pfizer and AstraZeneca) do not contain any prohibited substances or ingredients and that they have met the clinical standards of the TGA (at this stage Pfizer vaccine only. Astra Zeneca TGA application for approval is in progress and is also expected to be approved by the TGA quite soon), deeming them safe.

Based on what was conveyed by the trusted Muslim doctors and medical experts, the vaccine for the Coronavirus (COVID-19) is permissible according to the Islamic law as there is no known religious harm attributed to being vaccinated nor does it contain any forbidden substances. The vaccine will be considered necessary if there is any possible risk of harm to other humans due to non-vaccination.
