Lawyer: Fort Hood suspect prevented from praying
Monday, December 21, 2009An attorney for the man charged in the deadly shootings at Fort Hood says the Army has prohibited his client from praying in Arabic with his family.
Attorney John P. Galligan said police stopped a phone conversation between Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan and his brother on Friday because it was not in English. Galligan told the San Antonio Express-News that police at Brooke Army Medical Center refused to let Hasan pray in Arabic.
Galligan says he thinks that’s illegal and violation of Hasan’s religious rights.
Hasan has been charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder in the Nov. 5 attack.
The military has imposed restrictions requiring Hasan to speak only in English on the phone or with visitors unless an interpreter is present.
OK…all this says is that he was speaking on the phone in arabic, which was stopped. We are in America..speak English. And pray all you want to whatever you want in whatever language you want – in private. No one can stop anyone form praying. Daft.
To prevent him from praying actually is impossible – I pray many times a day and nobody knows it but Jesus Christ and myself. Now, if I wiis to make a spectacle of myself in the manner I pray, then that would be a different story. Under the circumstances, since he committed the crime, part of his punishment, and rightfully so, should be to have to speak only in a language his guards can understand. I believe preventing him from praying in his "normal Muslim way' is quite justified. After all, the ones he killed didn't have time to pray in any fashion at all, did they?
Muslims prefer to make a show of it. They want us all to think how holy and pious they are while they pray for our demise.
Screw that muslim prick with a freshly-baked potato. No, make that a dozen baked potatoes! Even if you have to prop his "thingy" up with tooth-pick braces…HeH, HeH….Gedditt??…..Then, he might learn to follow the 'keffirs' rules.
It was good that that girl crippled him. She should have shot him in the voice box too….
"the Army has prohibited his client from praying in Arabic with his family."
This thug is a cripple, thanks to that noble American girl. As such, he cannot prey for Allah in the traditional islamic manner. The authorities were justified in insisting that he speak in English when no interpreter is present. The thug has the gal to raise an issue of Free Speech!
Until such time we derecognize islam as a mainstream religion and classify it as a political ideology incompatible with our way of life – like Nazism and Communism – we will continue to face this dilemma.

Hi Chethan,
Your last sentence is dead on! What we are doing now is not working.
I thought the thug was paralyzed. Anyway, he should be disallowed from talking his lingo on the phone if no one understands him. He could say anything – and he IS the murdering thug caught in the act. It was premeditated, he was caught in the act. period. he is guilty. Now the only thing left is how he dies – pig soaked bullets, a pig soaked needle(s), or a pig soaked noose. Oops, I forgot – a pig soaked sponge wetting his pathetic head before being electrocuted.
I am sure some decent pigs would hand over their used stys for his burial plot.
So, even if he couldn't pray, that's a good reason to kill innocents. Hey, Jews were forbidden to pray in any organized manner in the Soviet Union for decades, and of course, Jews routinely went out and shot up innocent Russkies in the streets of Moscow all the time.
Except… they didn't. Never happened. Ever. Because they aren't Muslims.
