Talk:Ahmed Akkari

message: It seems that Ahmed Akkari made a death threat against a prominent danish politican (Naser Khader), currently I've only been able to find danish sources on this though. The threats were made in front of a camera (which he apparently didn't know was recording), Akkari claims there isn't any intent behind the "joke". The folks behind the camera is a french documentary team, so there could be something about this on french news sites. northyen.dk 17:47, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Can anyone find the Arabic sentence and put it on the article, since the translation is disputed?    In any case both Arabic -> Danish -> English and Arabic -> French -> Danish -> English translation routes are suspect.--Per Abrahamsen 15:00, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Death threats made by Akkari 

message: This source, from National Danish Radio, http://www.dr.dk/Nyheder/Indland/2006/03/23/014126.htm c already in the article, claims that he is an imam. I found hundreds of others, but most were blogs.
This source, from National Danish TV http://politik.tv2.dk/article.php/3617652.html
among other sources claims he is not just any imam, but  "talsmand for Islamisk Trossamfund"
approximately, "spokesman of the islamic faith congregation in denmark." 
Some of this should be mentioned.DanielDemaret 21:37, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It's tricky. Lots of sources (including the Reuters one I included myself) call him "Imam". Others I've come across specifically deny that. He himself denied it only a fortnight ago. (Don't know what he claims now). "Imam" has, not in strict sense of the word - but in common use certainly, always a religious undercurrent. For the leader of an organization "rais" would more likely be used. I personally feel that the use of the title "Imam" for anybody with less credentials than as at least regular and (by his flock) commonly accepted prayer leader or religious guide is unwarranted. Akkari doesn't have a parish or community or whatever you'd prefer top call it. Others may think that his involvement in the cartoon affair has given him enough clout to be called one. I'm willing to try to dig up the reference of Akkari himself saying he isn't an Imam, if we can't find a wording that caters to the uncertainty. Azate 22:07, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

text: Here it goes: "Q: I have read you are an imam? Akkari: No, I am a spokesman for 27 organisations. I am a Danish citizen, I have some theological background, but I am educated in sociology and pedagogy." Source:  Telegraph.co.uk interview.Azate 22:55, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
