Thousands of people praying in the street while an Islamic prayer is heard in the background – this is shown in a half-minute video that is being shared on Facebook and Twitter these days with claims that it was made in Paris. The video is shared and commented on in a negative context, that is, it is suggested that Islam is conquering Christian Europe, and some even rejoice, claiming that France deserved such a thing because of its colonial past. However, we are talking about a video that was made in Moscow. It is not known exactly when it was taken, but judging by the photos that can be found on the Internet, this is exactly how the streets around the Moscow Cathedral Mosque (on the video) look like when major Muslim holidays such as Eid al-Adha are celebrated.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recent weeks, a 30-second video has been circulating on social networks featuring several thousand people praying in the street while an Islamic prayer is heard in the background. It is claimed on social networks that the video was created in Paris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor those who don’t know, this is the capital of France\u201d, claims the post on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn Paris, there are more Muslims out in the streets to pray than the French\u201d, it is stated on Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The same video went viral in December of last year when it was shared on Twitter by Srpski Info Stab, claiming that only 50 percent of Christians remain in France, and that \u201cthe number of atheists and members of the Islamic religion is growing the most\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
