A coalition of British Muslims of Iranian descent, spearheaded by Anjem Choudary, is contemplating legal action in the European Court of Human Rights located in Strasbourg.

They claim that Spain’s traditional Holy Week processions represent an “insult to Islam” and to the Prophet Muhammad, insisting on their immediate prohibition.

British Muslims plan to petition the Strasbourg Court to abolish Holy Week in Spain.

Choudary asserts that these Catholic processions, which have been a staple of Spanish culture since 1978, constitute a “provocation” to the Muslim community.

“It’s a slight to the thousands of Muslims who are compelled to practice their faith in secrecy,” he stated, a sentiment not surprising coming from someone with a track record of controversial remarks. The legal challenge aims to compel Spain to suspend these long-standing celebrations, eliciting a robust backlash from the Spanish populace.

Similar tensions have surfaced across Europe in recent years.

For instance, a report by Le Figaro in 2024 highlighted efforts by Islamist groups in France to prohibit Christmas celebrations in public, claiming such festivities were offensive to their beliefs.

In Belgium, the cancellation of Christmas markets due to similar pressures led to widespread protests, revealing a troubling trend: the imposition of cultural constraints under the banner of “tolerance.”

This situation prompts significant questions regarding the boundaries of multiculturalism in Europe. Should centuries-old traditions bow to external pressures?

The ruling from the Strasbourg court could set a precarious precedent—not just for Spain, but for the entire continent.

In the interim, Spanish society must brace itself to defend its cultural heritage and convey a resounding message: Holy Week is inviolable.
