Pictured above, Sadiq Khan and Suliman Gani, the radical imam at the Labour mayoral candidate’s local Tooting Islamic Centre. Gani is a known wrong ‘un, and is on the record describing women as “subservient” to men, condemning homosexuality and demanding “justice” for an al-Qaeda terrorist. Yet he is very close to Sadiq, as these personal emails obtained by Guido reveal. 

In 2013, Khan wrote to Imam Gani to wish him a happy Eid:

From: KHAN, Sadiq
To: Suliman Gani

Dear Imam Gani
Asalaam O Alaikum
I would like to send my warmest wishes to you and your family for Eid-Ul-Fitr.

Gani replied the following morning with a friendly warning about why Khan should still be fasting:

From: Suliman Gani
To: KHAN, Sadiq

The irony is that Muslims who follow the God given commands rather than made decisions will be fasting tomorrow as the news has just come from South Africa that the only place that could possibly sight the moon in all of Africa/Asia/Europe could not sight it in clear weather – not even with binoculars and telescopes!!

Khan then replied to the radical imam minutes later apologising for failing to attend prayers at the Tooting Islamic Centre, before asking him about a moon-sighting, a Ramadan fasting convention:

From: KHAN, Sadiq
To: Suliman Gani

Assalam O Alaikum,
Sorry I missed Isha at TIC last night but assumed there had been a sighting?

Until now Khan hasn’t commented on his closeness to Gani, a very unsavoury character indeed…
