LUANDA - ANGOLA. Sebuah yayasan berpusat di Johannesburg berjaya membongkar perbuatan biadab kerajaan Angola yang menjadi negara pertama di dunia mengharamkan Islam.

Menurut Pengarah Open Society Initiative of Southern Africa, (Osisa), Elias Isaac berkata, mereka menerima laporan kebanyakan masjid di negara itu kini diarah tutup atau dimusnahkan pihak tidak bertanggungjawab.

"Terdapat 78 masjid di Angola dan hanya beberapa dibuka di ibu negara selepas kerajaan khuatir dengan respons masyarakat antarabangsa terhadap dasar Islamofobia yang dilaksanakan di negara tersebut," jelasnya lagi.

Menurut beforeitsnews, , kerajaan Angola turut mengeluarkan notis dan memberi tempoh 73 jam kepada masyarakat Islam di negara itu untuk memusnahkan masjid dan mereka yang gagal berbuat demikian akan dikenakan tindakan.

Sementara itu, Presiden Persatuan Orang Islam Angola (ICA), David Ja memberitahu, tindakan menutup masjid di negara tersebut dilakukan sejak 2010.

"Selain menyasarkan masjid, kerajaan turut bertindak sewenang-wenangnya membakar 120 al-Quran dalam beberapa serbuan ke atas masjid yang dilakukan sejak akhir-akhir ini," menurutnya.

Angola became a hot topic in the international media over the weekend, as news outlets around the world wrote about reports that the Southwest African nation had banned Islam and had begun to dismantle mosques.

But an official at the Angolan Embassy in Washington, D.C., who did not want to be identified while discussing the sensitive matter, said that there is no such ban and that the reports are erroneous.

“The Republic of Angola … it’s a country that does not interfere in religion,” the official said via telephone Monday afternoon. “We have a lot of religions there. It is freedom of religion. We have Catholic, Protestants, Baptists, Muslims and evangelical people.”

Angolan Official Denies Islam Ban, But Muslims Say Mosque Closings Persist

The controversy over reports that the southwest African nation of Angola had banned Islam and begun to demolish mosques took a new turn Tuesday when Manuel Fernando, director of the Angolan Ministry of Culture's National Institute for Religious Affairs, denied both reported measures.

"There is no war in Angola against Islam or any other religion," Fernando told Agence France-Presse. "There is no official position that targets the destruction or closure of places of worship, whichever they are."

But the Angolan magazine Exame Angola reports that a mosque in Huambo was closed recently "under express orders of the police authorities of the province of Huambo." That came from a member of the mosque in question, which Exame reports is the 60th to be closed in Angola. All quotes from Exame referenced in this article have been translated from Portuguese.

And prominent Angolan Muslim leader David Ja maintains that the government has been engaging in "political persecution" and "religious intolerance," AFP reports, rejecting the denial by Fernando that Angola has been targeting Muslim groups.

Pengganut moslems sunni banyak buat celaka kat sana lah kot. Sebabtu ugama islam ini bakal di haramkan di sana. Hairan akak kenapa ummah sunni bidadari firdausi ini suka sangat buat bangsat kat negara orang. Sama saja kot dengan ummah arab yang datang Malaysia duk buat hal. Berduyun2 orang mahu haramkan mereka ini datang.

Angola denies it has banned Islam
Government statement says there is "no war" against religion following allegations authorities had destroyed mosques.

Angola's government has denied it had banned Islam and closed mosques in the country, after media speculation that sparked outrage among Muslims worldwide.

"There is no war in Angola against Islam or any other religion," said Manuel Fernando, director of the National Institute for Religious Affairs, part of the ministry of culture,  onTuesday.

"There is no official position that targets the destruction or closure of places of worship, whichever they are." Fernando told AFP news agency.

David Ja, a spokesman for local Muslims, challenged the government's account and said that a number of mosques had already been closed.

But according to the ministry of culture, those closures were related to a lack of necessary land titles, building licenses or other official documents.

A witness in the province of Uige (Carmona) told Al Jazeera that the closed mosques were hastility built by expatriate communities from west and north Africa who needed a place to perform Friday prayers.

“It’s true that several mosques have been destroyed and others simply shut down in the last few months. Most of the mosques that were destroyed were built without government permission. Two authorised mosques in Luanda are still operating without a problem. I have not heard of any official decision to ban Islam or prohibit Muslim prayers in mosques.” Ahmed ould Taher told Al Jazeera.

Worldwide media coverage

Reports that Angola, a traditionally devout Catholic nation, would crack down on Muslims had drawn condemnation from the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation and others.

In Egypt, mufti Shawqi Allam said such a move would be "a provocation not only to Angolan Muslims but to more than 1.5 billion Muslims all over the world".

The issue, which was first reported late last week, attracted huge media coverage worldwide and generated strong reactions on social media.

The controversy was further fueled by the government's poor communication on the issue.

The oil-rich southern African nation has a population of about 18 million people, several hundred thousand of whom are Muslims.

Religious organisations are required to apply for accreditation in Angola, which currently recognises 83, all of them Christian.

In October the justice ministry rejected the applications of 194 organisations, including one from an umbrella Islamic community group.

Angola's oil boom has attracted large expatriate communities from across the world.
