[Arab News] The wife of the imam planning an Islamic community center at Cordoba House said she and her husband have received death threats.
Daisy Khan said Sunday that her life and that of her husband, Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf were "under threat."
Police could not confirm the threats.
Khan was part of a wide-ranging discussion of Islam broadcast on ABC's "This Week."
She also said that moderate Mohammedans like herself must lead the fight against forces of Evil in their religion, but that if moderate Mohammedans are branded as snuffys, they will be thrown into the arms of Al-Qaeda.
The developer of the Islamic center has released preliminary sketches of the 16-story planned structure. Sharif El-Gamal said groundbreaking was probably two to three years away. |
