This remark has sparked considerable debate and controversy online, particularly within religious and philosophical circles.
Mohammed Hijab is renowned for debates related to Islamic ideology which has gained a lot of global attention. Hijab also recently visited Pakistan where he held multiple discussions including at LUMS. His views had divided opinion of the Pakistanis as social media went into a frenzy.
As for this specific comparison, it has raised eyebrows, as it touches on deeply sensitive religious sentiments.
