These councils represent nine different Muslim organizations. The Council was asked to include the Republican values of France in its books, reject Islam as a political movement and ban foreign influence.
Shams-Eddin Hafiz, vice-president of this council CFCM, said, “Not everyone agrees on this new charter, but Islam in France has come to a historic juncture and we Muslims have to face our responsibilities.”He told that eight years ago he used to think differently. In those days a Muslim fundamentalist Mohammed Merah attacked Toulouse.

Hafiz said, “Former President Sarkozy raised me to speak at five in the morning. I told him that his name might be Mohammed but he is a criminal. I did not want to make any connection between that crime and my religion. But today I do this. The Imams of France have a lot of work to do. “
