dbo:abstract
Sir Iqbal Abdul Karim Mussa Sacranie, OBE (born 6 September 1951 in Malawi) served as Secretary General of the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) until June 2006. He arrived in the UK in 1969. He was the founding Secretary General of the Muslim Council of Britain (established 1997), and served four further years as Secretary General from 2002 to 2004 and 2004 to 2006. He was honoured with an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 1999, and was Knighted by the Queen in 2005. During the controversy on Salman Rushdie, shortly after the fatwa by Iranian religious leader Ayatollah Khomeini for his book The Satanic Verses, Sacranie stated: "Death, perhaps, is a bit too easy for him his mind must be tormented for the rest of his life unless he asks for forgiveness to Almighty Allah." Sacranie states that this quotation was misinterpreted and that he merely wanted to convince Muslims that they should not kill Rushdie. On 3 January 2006 Sacranie told BBC Radio 4's PM programme that he believes homosexuality is "not acceptable", and denounced same-sex civil partnerships as "harmful". He said that bringing in gay marriage did "not augur well" for building the foundations of society. He was Chairman of Muslim Aid and since 2012 is on the executive committee. Sir Iqbal Abdul Karim Mussa Sacranie (* 6. September 1951 in Malawi) ist ein muslimischer Funktionär in Großbritannien und war 2002 bis 2006 der Generalsekretär des (MCB), der mitgliederstärksten muslimischen Glaubensgemeinschaft in Großbritannien. Sacranie flüchtete als Angehöriger der muslimischen Minderheit in Malawi nach der Unabhängigkeit seines Landes 1964 nach Großbritannien. Seit den 1980er Jahren beschäftigte sich Sacranie vor allem mit der Frage der besseren Integration der Muslime in Großbritannien. Unter anderem durch seine Initiative entstand 1997 der MCB. Am 1. Dezember 2005 wurde er von Königin Elisabeth II. als Knight Bachelor geadelt. Sacranie und der MCB sind in Großbritannien wegen ihrer islamisch-konservativen bzw. fundamentalistischen Haltung kritisiert worden. So erklärte Sacranie nach der Veröffentlichung des Buches Die Satanischen Verse von Salman Rushdie, aufgrund dessen der Autor von Islamisten mit dem Tode bedroht wurde, dass der "Tod vielleicht zu leicht" für Rushdie sei und stattdessen sein Geist gequält werden müsse, bis er sich für die Blasphemie entschuldige. Später erklärte er, diese Äußerungen seien falsch verstanden worden: Er habe lediglich versuchen wollen, Muslime davon zu überzeugen, dass es falsch sei, Rushdie zu töten. Der MCB boykottierte von 2001 bis 2007 eine Erinnerungszeremonie für die Befreiung des Konzentrationslagers Auschwitz und begründete dies mit der israelischen Besatzung Palästinas, bei der unschuldige Muslime getötet würden. 2005 eröffnete die Polizei gegen Sacranie eine Untersuchung wegen Belästigung, nachdem er am Radio gesagt hatte, homosexuelle Beziehungen seien "schädlich" und eingetragene Partnerschaften Homosexueller "nicht akzeptabel".
