‘We’re taking over!’ Muslim influencer shares gleeful video celebrating church’s conversion into mosque
From GB News
A Muslim influencer has shared a video celebrating the “takeover” of a church in Blackburn after its conversion to a mosque.
Self-described “revert” or convert, Abdullah Muhammad, uploaded the clip to social media last night. In it, Mr Muhammad celebrated how the 130-year-old Leamington Road Baptist Church had been turned into a new masjid, or Islamic place of worship.
It is uploaded to tik tok here; I can’t embed it.
A cameraman can be heard saying: “Get away… This is a church” as the influencer poses on the street with three youths.
Mr Muhammad replies: “No – not any more, not any more. This actually used to be Leamington Road Church in Blackburn. And now it’s a big, beautiful masjid. Just look at the size of the building!”
Inside, viewers are shown around a freshly kitted-out mosque.
At the start of the tour, Mr Muhammad tells the cameraman: “Yo, take your shoes off as well, bro. It’s not a church, bro. This is a mosque.”
“The main focus in this palace is education, education, education,” Mr Muhammad told viewers. “If you want to seal the future of your youth, then send them here.”
As the video concludes, Mr Muhammad reappears on the street and declares the church conversion is “another beautiful addition to the Ummah”.
The Ummah refers to the Muslim world.
He then describes the former Christian site as “another beautiful addition to the United Kingdom”.
Wagging his finger, he continues: “It actually used to be a church… Not any more!”
Finally, he shouts: “We’re taking over!”
This young chap has a whole series of tiktok videos, all in a similar bouncy gloating vein, showcasing new mosques in the North West of England.
