Muslims on social media have called for the boycott of Marks and Spencer toilet paper because they can see the ‘Arabic word for God on it.’
This started after a man recorded a video where he can be heard urging Muslim ‘brothers and sisters’ not to buy the toilet tissue which has a symbol he says looks like the Allah symbol.
He said in the video:
Recently I bought toilet tissue from Marks & Spencer and when I opened one of them, it has the name of Allah, as you can see.
So please brothers and sisters, prevent yourselves from buying this particular toilet tissue, or try boycott Marks & Spencers, because every toilet tissue has the name of Allah on it.
Thank you very much, please share this video.
Muslims quickly began commenting on the video while calling out M&S.
One person said: ‘Shame on M&S. I never expected M&S to go so low morally. I support a full Boycott of M&S.’
Another said: “#boycottmarksandspencer!”
As the video went viral and more Muslims expressed outrage, Marks and Spencer responded by denying that the inscription on their tissue is the Arabic symbol for Allah. The statement released by the company on Twitter said the pattern is ‘categorically of an aloe vera leaf’.
