Al -Essa warned that “the damage and crimes of Islam have been damaged against Muslims, which are still practiced to this day with a disguise, according to reliable statistics, in addition to a number of cases of marginalization of some Muslim societies, obstructing their integration, or preventing them from obtaining their human rights.”
He also spoke at least about the “reasons for the emergence of Islam phobia”, and explained that “Muslims, who are today about two billion people, represent the true image of Islam, and they interact positively with the world’s religious, ethnic and civilizational diversity, as of the call of Islam calling for human acquaintance.”

Al -Essa said: “No to make the followers of religions in the goal of hatred, racism, classification and exclusion, and the electoral slogans that reserve hatred, nor for those who cultivate fear to reap voices, nor to the policies that build their future on fear and division, nor for the media that nourishes racism, nor to the platforms that promote sedition, nor to the lies that visit the facts.”
He added, “Neither to link terrorism with a religion embraced by about two billion people, nor for the extremists who kidnap religion, and terrorism that distorts the truth of religion”, and also “not for those who refuse to see the truth, nor for fear of the other just because of its difference with us in his religion or race, so whoever agrees with you in religion or race may have risks to his religious or ethnic society that outweighs your delusion about others.”
