A mosque has been referred to the charity watchdog after it's imam made misogynistic comments about women.
Mustafa Abu Rayyan was holding a panel discussion in Birmingham when he argued that a woman's 'number one' responsibility was to 'follow, obey and respect her husband'.
Adding that they have an 'obligation' to have sex with their husbands and should not strive to become 'career women'.
The event took place at Green Lane Masjid, a mosque and community centre, registered as a charity to help advance 'the Islamic faith for the public benefit'.
Following on from the highly controversial comments the National Secular Society referred the mosque to the Charity Commission, arguing: 'If charities can spout misogyny under the banner of advancing religion, charity law is in dire need of reform.'
