Elon Musk shares Muslim scholar's viral video with 'Two Big ...'
Elon Musk has quoted a viral post from Ian Miles Cheon about British Muslim religious scholar Abu Waleed. The Tweet that has a video of Abu Waleed has received over 8 million views, almost 67,000 Likes, 13,000 retweets and 8,000-plus comments so far. In the 4 minute-long video, Abu Waleed reportedly says that Britain needs to be converted into a Muslim state. "British religious scholar Abu Waleed says it’s necessary to impose humiliating laws for non-Muslims in Britain and convert them," reads the caption of Choeon's Twitter post. Quoting the same Elon Musk shared Two BIG question marks.

The video has also been shared by some other users on Twitter.
Incidentally, this is not the first time that Elon Musk has spoken about/shared his views on what he believes to be growing dominance of Muslims in the United Kingdom. Late 2024 and earlier this year, Elon Musk reignited a political row about gangs of men who are said to have groomed and raped girls in England over several decades.
The world's richest man shared a flurry of posts on his social media platform Twitter accusing British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and other senior politicians of covering up the scandal. It is the latest intervention by the SpaceX founder in UK political affairs, even triggering calls for Starmer to sue for defamation. Elon Musk called for British PM's resignation in several Twitter posts.
Elon Musk and the Conservative leader, Kemi Badenoch, also called for a fresh national inquiry.

When Elon Musk slammed UK PM on riots

Britain experienced riots following the tragic murders of three young girls in Southport, Merseyside. On July 29, three girls aged between six and nine were killed during an attack at a Taylor Swift-themed dance event for children. Almost immediately after the attack, social media posts speculated that the suspect was an asylum seeker who arrived in the UK on a boat in 2023, and he was Muslim.
"Shouldn’t you be concerned about attacks on *all* communities?" wrote Elon Musk tagging British Prime Minister Keir Starmer that condemned attacks on 'Muslim' areas amid UK riots in August 2024. He went on to add in another post, "Why aren’t all communities protected in Britain? @Keir_Starmer."


In several cities across the UK, violent groups clashed with counter-protesters. Riots were reported in more than 20 places across Britain, from Sunderland in northeast England and Manchester in the northwest, to Plymouth in the southwest and Belfast in Northern Ireland. Most of the protests involved a few hundred people targeting migrants or Muslims, with police vehicles set alight and bricks, bottles and other missiles thrown at mosques and police officers. Shops, including Asian-owned businesses, have been vandalised or looted.
