Bahrain Mirror: The authorities summoned head of the Sanabis Ma'atam Hassan Al-Moalemah, for interrogation over the large public reception of scholar Sheikh Mohammad Sanqour, following his release
On Friday, May 26, 2023, Sheikh Sanqour, the esteemed preacher and imam of the Imam Al-Sadiq Mosque, was warmly welcomed in Sanabis on Friday, May 26, 2023, with an enthusiastic reception from both the public and scholars alike. The authorities released Sheikh Sanqour on May 25, 2023 following 3 days of arrest over allegations related to a Friday sermon.
Sheikh Sanqour had said, in his Friday sermon on May 19, that "if the change in the educational curricula of everything that harms the Zionists and the Zionist entity were to proceed at the pace at which it began, it would have been a serious threat to the identity of this country, its religion, values and pillars."
The arrest of Sheikh Sanqour came one day after a phone call made by the Israeli Foreign Affairs Minister Eli Cohen with his Bahraini counterpart Abdullatif Al-Zayani.
