Muslims In Lebanon Threatening To Kill Gay Female Comic For Making Fun Of Islamic Extremism
Muslims Outside A Female Comic's Show In Lebanon Are Threatening To Kill Her For Making Fun Of Islamic Extremism: Lebanon's Muslim religious authorities have filed complaints against a stand-up comedian and LGBTQ rights activist after a sketch of hers about Friday prayers sparked controversy online. Openly gay Lebanese comedian Shaden Fakih has amassed a large online following for her jabs at religious authorities and the sectarian factions that have long dominated the country's politics. But her sometimes crude jokes have also angered many Lebanese, despite the country's reputation as one of the Arab world's most tolerant societies. On Friday, the Supreme Islamic Shiite Council filed a criminal complaint against Fakih for "the crimes of blasphemy, insulting religious rituals and stirring sectarian... strife", the state-run National News Agency reported.
Islamist lawmaker Imad Hout also filed a complaint against her, NNA said. On Thursday, Lebanon's grand mufti, Sheikh Abdel Latif Derian, ordered top Sunni religious authority Dar al-Fatwa to file a complaint against Fakih for "insult and blasphemy against the divine glory and Prophet Mohammed". Dar al-Fatwa also accused her of "inciting religious and sectarian strife", and "undermining national unity", NNA said.
