"confirmed Shibley that" what do Joseph and his family is their right to exercise freedom of religion and freedom of belief and conscience as I went to the officials of the Ministry of Religion, another request for authentication is also changing religion "Joseph," and members of his family and what did not work all the telephone calls and mass mailings with officials from the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Interior indictment was filed initially against the two ministries on procrastination and described their action as "illegal," said Shibley, "and the impact of this indictment made by the Public Prosecution and visited the Justice declined The Religious Affairs Ministry position and certificates were issued to change the religion of Joseph and his family all states recognize the state religion of the new followed by the internal change religion, speech and his family in the population registry and change their names Hebrew to Arab names. lawyer said Shibley "natural non-response to the Ministries of Interior and religions to recognize change the religion of the family Yusuf that there is no interest to do so as a Jewish family came Kqadamin renewed through the Agency for Jewish and spent their money and putting them in the Jewish settlement in Gaza and ultimately come of this family to change their religion, this thing does not serve Israel's interest is what made the Ministries of Interior and religions do not recognize Islam of Yusuf. " The Shibley, "The Israeli Supreme Court does not encourage this phenomenon, which is becoming increasingly in the Jewish sector as well as Israeli government officials and the movements of Israeli all are able to encourage this phenomenon, especially since Joseph was a rabbi religious and belongs to the Shas Party." explained Shibley that this phenomenon are growing in the middle Jewish saying that they have no statistics on the number of Jews who have declared for Islam, but said "that Joseph himself knows the number where there has connections with people who bring it to declare their Islam," said a while ago that I went to a Jewish girl to recognize the Islamic religion more and ask how the announced Islam and they have the desire to announce that is also converted to Islam.
