Australia's
Grand Mufti Ibrahim Abu Mohamed railed against the 'corrupt values' of
the West before he moved to Australia to become a religious authority,
Daily Mail Australia can reveal.
In
an essay published by Dr Mohamed when he lived in Abu Dhabi in 1995,
the future leader complained that Western values were being imposed on
the third world.
'The
West does not bring to us any good, all they bring are their diseases,
their designs and their shortcomings,' he wrote according to the
official translated English edition.
'They
insist to impose on us their corrupt values, and their philosophy and
mannerism, the very things which brought disease, fear, crime and stress
to them, the very things which severed ties and broke relationships.'
In
the paper, a scathing criticism of a United Nations population
conference in Cairo, Dr Mohamed said the West's Fitra - their innate
nature or conscience - had 'degenerated'.

fire for his condolence message over the Paris attacks
The essay
was contained in the English translation of Dr Mohamed's book, A Call
For Thinking (left). Dr Ibrahim is pictured right in a head shot
supplied with the book
In an essay titled 'The Northerly
Winds Between The Screen of Development and Population Control: A study
of the Cairo conference,' Dr Mohamed (centre) described homosexuality
and lesbianism as 'sexual perversions' and claimed low fertility rates
were caused by 'loose extramarital sexual conduct'
He
described homosexuality and lesbianism as 'sexual perversions' and said
low fertility rates in western countries, such as France, were caused
by the 'loose extramarital sexual conduct of men and women'.
'Further,
the emission of semen from different men into the same womb results in
gonorrhea which leads to the blockage of the fellopian tubes,' Dr
Mohamed wrote, 'which in turn leads to either temporary of permanent
barrenness with many women'.
The future Grand Mufti then described what he believed the situation was in the West with adultery and low fertility rates.
'The young man in these countries can get lucky with more than one woman,' Dr Mohamed wrote.
'He
is able to move from this woman to that, exchanging his girlfriends and
lovers is much easier than changing shoes, why would such a person tie
himself to one woman?
'Why
should he marry? Marriage is a responsibility, full of worries, and is a
tie to one women! (sic) whilst bachelorhood allows him to achieve what
he wishes and more?'
Meanwhile, he said women forgot about motherhood, under pressure from 'merciless materialistic societies'.
'Pregnancy
gives her flab, it bloats her, it changes the lineaments of her form,
and her beautiful features, and these are her capital.
'These
leads to avoidance of pregnancy, and resistance to bearing children,'
he said, before telling an anecdote about male and female infidelity.
'He
(the father) often doubts the legitimacy of his children, and cannot
know for certain whether this child is from his loins or the loins of
another'.
He complained that instead of the West 'draining its filthy springs... they are exporting their diseases to us'.
'They
are forcing us to circulate these, they want us to persist in them, and
protect them with the barrier of international law, under the flag of
the United Nations'.
The
essay was published in the book, A Call For Thinking, first in Arabic
and then translated to English by Keysar Trad, from the the Islamic
Friendship Association.

revealed other writings of Dr Mohamed (pictured, the book An Invitation
to Contemplate) where he said Westerners wanted non-Muslim women to walk
around 'exposed as a piece of sweet pastry... devoured by the eyes of
men'

When
approached for comment about the translation, Mr Trad said: 'From my
understanding, he (the Grand Mufti) was happy with it.'
The Grand Mufti had the book proof-read by others, he said, and had approved the book to be published.
Of the book's contents, he said: 'The original books were written in the context of Arabic speaking countries'.
'They addressed their specific concerns especially the influence of more powerful countries on their politics.'
The essay was focused upon what Dr Mohamed saw as the failures of the Cairo population conference.
Mr
Trad said the two books he translated for Dr Mohamed, A Call for
Thinking and a previous one, An Invitation to Contemplate, 'give an
insight into the mindset of people in the region'.
Multiple calls, emails and a request for an interview with Dr Mohamed were not returned by time of publication on Monday.
A source familiar with Dr Mohamed's views said he was appreciative of Australia's freedoms and scientific advancements.
However,
the source said he 'does not like... the family break ups, no clear
line of responsibility in the family, (a lack of) fidelity in western
society… and the acceptance of homosexual practices'.
Dr
Mohamed has had a testing year as the Grand Mufti in 2015 since his
appointment to the post by the Australian National Imams Council (ANIC)
in 2011.
The Grand Mufti came under attack by Federal government frontbenchers for his response to the Paris massacre in November.
At the time, Dr Mohamed sent his condolence to the victims but dismissed current anti-terror strategies as ineffective.
He said the focus should be on Islamophobia, foreign policy and military interventions.
Daily Mail Australia revealed other previous translated writings of Dr Mohamed earlier this year.
In
another translated book, Invitation to Contemplate, Dr Mohamed said
Westerners wanted non-Muslim women to walk around 'exposed as a piece of
sweet pastry... devoured by the eyes of men'.
