An Islamic extremist who works in one of London’s most famous hospitals was suspended after being charged with a FATWA-style death threat to blasphemy.
Sunday’s email could reveal NHS employee Omar Abdallah Mansuur, 39, an influential Imam who claimed he ordered his fellow Muslims to be sentenced to death for insulting the Prophet Muhammad.
His radio was of thousands of followers and was considered the first time that the British pastor posed such a threat.
Police warned that the scared victim is now hiding in Europe and that his visit to the UK is too dangerous. “It’s a nightmare,” he said last night. “My life is in danger and I’ve been looking at my shoulders.”
But last night, Mansuur denied sending a death threat, saying he just spoke out the blasphemy of Islamic punishment.
In some of his inflammatory speech, Mansuur appears in a video inside St. Thomas Hospital – directly across from the Parliament – he engages in procurement.
A sequence shows him entering the hospital through the underground entrance, then walking along the corridor and sitting in the office.
The staff described Beadpectacled Mansuur, a British national of Somali, who lived in north London with his wife and children, as modest and courteous. But his social media profile tells a different story.

He used Tiktok, Facebook and X to attract millions of followers through hate-filled videos and live streams.
On Friday, after MOS passed the evidence, the hospital said Mansour had been suspended before the investigation.
“I call for immediate decisive action to protect my clients,” said Yair Cohen, a lawyer representing the victim.
“Police seem to be able to arrest people quickly because there is much less social media activity.”
The National Secular Society says: “It is shocking that in the UK, Islamists call for the killing of so-called blasphemers or deaths of those who leave Islam. Police and anti-extremist authorities must take this threat seriously, while those who incite murder of those seen as crimes must face justice.
Mansuur said on a radio about the 32-year-old moderate Imam, “When he repents, he will be executed in the manner of Muslims being killed. If he refuses to repent, he will be captured, killed and thrown into the hole like a dog.
The death threat victim strongly denied insulting Islam and insisted that his comments on social media were tampered with. Metropolitan police said it had forwarded his complaint to the country where he was hiding.
The goal of “Fatwa” told MET in a statement that he feared he would suffer the same fate as French teacher Samuel Paty, who was beheaded near a school in Paris in 2020 after hatred campaigners accused him of showing students a cartoon of a prophet.

Hadi Matar was sentenced to 25 years in prison for the murder of Salman Rushdie on Friday. Photos here at Chautauqua County Courthouse for the sentencing in Mayville, New York on May 16, 2025.
Matar was on the FATWA issued by Iran’s Supreme Leader Ruhollah Khomeini in 1979 to Mr. Rushdie until his death in 1989
He said: “Mr. Mansuur…issued Fatwa to me, and my punishment for insulting the prophet is death… My life is at risk and I worry about my own safety.” In other videos, Mansuur defends children’s marriage, saying that girls under the age of 11 can get married in the case of their parents as long as they are virgins.
The death threat comes after the disturbing rise in the UK’s fight against major injuries. A government report last year explained that violence was facilitated through the “availability of online jihad propaganda.”
Experts say Islamists are radicalizing and then self-recovering the blasphemy “crime” in Britain.
The report was commissioned by the government’s anti-body tsar, including flash dots, including teachers RE showing students a Mohammed cartoon at a school in Bartley, West Yorkshire, who was forced to hide.
Iran’s spiritual leader Ayatollah Khomeini imposed Fatwa on British writer Salman Rushdie in 1989, his novel Satanic. Mr. Rushdie, 77, has been hiding for nearly a decade when he was turned a blind eye when an extremist attacked in New York in 2022. His attacker was sentenced to 25 years in jail last week.
Mansuur’s broadcast and release of videos in his Somali language seemed to save him from the authorities’ attention and thus pay to other Firebrand missionaries. He first accused the mild Imam (we did not name his safety) of blasphemy when he preached on an app called Clubhouse in 2022. He had hundreds of followers at the time. By March, when the video resurfaced on social media, it had already gained thousands of views.
Mansuur then joined other missionaries in the live broadcast of Tiktok and accused mild imams of blasphemy.
When the preacher’s photo appears on the screen, Mansour said: “Even if a repentant person repents, there is no way to stop the execution… His judgment is death… He will be executed.”
Salman Rushdie also suffered additional injuries in the 2022 attack, including liver damage and hand paralyzed due to nerve damage in the arm
The mild imam complained to the local police and received security advice. He said: “I was told to avoid mosques and areas with large populations. My life is in danger. I’m always scared. His followers use his video as Fatwa.
In a complaint to the Metropolis, he said: “Mr. Mansour…issued “Fatwa” to me, and my punishment for insulting the prophet is death. In the last month, the threat of death, violence, intimidation and harassment increased and intensified, which made me live in fear, feeling troubled, worried and anxious.
Mansour said in another live broadcast in Tiktok in June 2022 that the Sharia law’s death penalty for blasphemy must be blasphemed against Somali women who he accused of insulting the prophet. However, other spokespersons urged to restrain her from repentance.
The next month, Mansuur released another videotape, with Tiktok accused of blasphemy against an unidentified man. In the shocking video, the Somalia caption reads: “This dirty man insults our hearts [Prophet]. He is a pagan and his blood is halal. Then, Mansour said: “It takes action, it takes courage…everyone of you should come up with your abilities.”
Last night, campaigners accused Mansuur of inciting murder, but he told Mail on Sunday that his speech was “out of context”, adding that he never advocated violence.
He said on the mild Imam: “I am talking about a man who insulted the prophet Muhammad. I am giving advice to scholars. I did not say, do it. This is B *******.
“I haven’t broken the law yet…I just told us we’re going to put him in court. Anyone can take your words and twist it. My words are not against the law. ”
When asked why he accuses others of blasphemy and says their punishment is death, Mansour said he was just repeating Islamic law.
The National Secular Society said: “We are very concerned about the apparent lack of action by the authorities in the case. Extremists who promote Islamic punishment pose a serious threat to people’s lives due to so-called blasphemy.
“We can confirm that Mr. Mansour has withdrawn from duty before the investigation into the allegations of his conduct,” said the NHS Trust, which operates St Thomas.
