Egyptian-German Scholar Hamed Abdel-Samad: ‚In Fascism, Nazism, And Islam… Jews Are Like Animals‘; ‚This Hatred [Of Jews] Is Poisoning Us‘ | MEMRI – The Middle East Media Research Institute

In a lecture posted online on March 21, 2016, Egyptian-German scholar Hamed Abdel-Samad said that the Prophet Muhammad had „lowered [the Jews] to a subhuman level, viewing them as animals“ and compared the treatment of the Jews in the years following Muhammad’s death to that of the Nazis. „This hatred is poisoning us“ and „preventing us from dealing with our problems in a serious way,“ he said, adding that „instead of poisoning one generation after another with this hatred, we should let them learn something from humanity,“ in order to enable them to „overcome the barrier of hatred and of fear of the other.“ The lecture is titled „Islamic Fascism and the Jews.“
