Angry Muslims stormed a drinking joint in Chinsapo in Lilongwe on Monday, demanding the bar owner to stop playing Islamic music.

According to Daudi Lulanga, one of the Muslims leaders in the area, the Muslims invaded Chifwafwifwa Pub because they heard Islamic music and Quran recordings coming from the bar.

Muslims clashed with bar owner

The angry Muslims forced the bar owner to stop playing Quran recordings and Islamic songs saying he was tarnishing the image of Islam.

The dispute was reported to Chinsapo Police Unit and officers went to the bar and cooled down the Muslims.

The law enforcers also forced the bar owner known as Mr Chifwafwifwa to delete all Islamic files on his laptop.

The police then assured the Muslim community in the area that they will conduct a campaign to tell all bar owners not to play any Islamic related items in their bars.

Chifwafwifwa has since apologised to the Muslim community in the area for tarnishing the image of Islam.
