Do you remember Algerian sheikh Walid Mahsas, who became famous in the world for a video showing a cat on his shoulder while he was praying?
After the spread of a composite image of him in a hospital bed, incorrect news about him was circulated on social media again.
Where it was abuzz with a video that its publishers claimed was of the Algerian sheikh in a restaurant dancing with two women.
It becomes clear that the person appearing in the video is not the Algerian Sheikh at all, and there is also no great similarity between them.
The video clip is old and published since January 2022 on TikTok with hashtags related to Pakistan, according to Misbar, an Arab news-checking and fact-finding platform.
Recall that a cat crept into A mosque in Algeria On the evening of April 4, I went directly to where his sheikh was leading the worshipers behind him in Tarawih prayers, according to a video that spread quickly on social media.
The Imam dealt kindly and in a better way with the cat that tried to pet him for a moment, at a time when he was reciting verses from the Holy Quran, then it climbed onto his shoulder, and then left him at a moment almost a second before he bowed.
