In a firm response to a video escalating religious tensions, Jamia Mosque has officially denounced the widely circulated clip titled "Christians in Kenya Arise," labeling it as a clear incitement to religious hatred and a violation of the Kenyan Constitution.
The condemnation was delivered by Sheikh Ibrahim Lethome, the Da'awah Convenor at Jamia Mosque Nairobi, during his Friday sermon. He specifically addressed the clip's dangerous rhetoric, which accuses the government of favoring a specific religious community and disparages the Islamic holy book.
“To accuse the government of favouring a certain religious community is in violation of the laws of this country,” stated Sheikh Lethome. “When that person also refers to our holy book as the ‘so-called’ holy book, they are defying our rights and freedom of religion, and the constitutional duty to respect the faith of others.”
Sheikh Lethome clarified that the video's content constitutes a direct breach of Article 32 of the Kenyan Constitution, which guarantees every person the freedom of conscience, religion, belief, and opinion.
In a call for restraint and principle, he added, “We are not going to retaliate by calling the books that other people respect as ‘so-called’ holy books. We should be guided by the teachings of Allah.”
Emphasizing that the inflammatory message does not represent the views of the vast majority of Kenyan Christians, Sheikh Lethome highlighted the generations of peaceful coexistence between the communities. Nonetheless, in response to the serious nature of the incident, the mosque administration has declared its intent to pursue formal legal recourse, including reporting the matter to the relevant national authorities for a full investigation.
By taking this public stand, Jamia Mosque is urging swift action from authorities and civic leaders to de-escalate the situation, prevent the spread of harmful stereotypes, and protect the nation's hard-won social cohesion.
