One of the Islamic groups, Islamic Concern, has expressed worry with the continued tendency of other Muslim women who are dancing during PP’s rallies.
According to Kassim Anafi, who is a Secretary General for the organisation said what the women are doing is contrary to the teachings of Islam.
In his remarks, Muslim Association of Malawi (MAM) Chairman for Blantyre District, Aman Omar, claimed that during the United Democratic Front (UDF) regime, the women never danced in the rallies.
“During the UDF under the leadership of Dr Bakili Muluzi the former President of Malawi we could see the women attending rallies but not to the extent of actually dancing and shouting Takbeer in front of men,” Omar was quoted by Radio Islam Malawi.
