A Brisbane mosque has made it very clear that Peter Dutton is not welcome after his 'deeply hurting' rhetoric, because a growing number of Muslim organizations distance themselves from the federal election grand.
Ali Kadri, a spokesperson for the Holland Park Mosque and a member of work, said that the language of the opposition leader about the Muslim community had called on the ban.
“His presence would be deep concerning our congregation,” Mr Kadri told Daily Mail Australia on Tuesday.
'In general we open our doors for all politicians, [but] Mr. Dutton has used deeply hurtful words when it comes to migrants, in particular the Muslim community. '
When asked which language was of particular importance, Mr Kadri said that Mr Dutton blamed the housing crisis for migrants and “made comments about trivializing Islamophobia.”
'In the housing debate, the focus is right to migrants, especially from Mr Dutton. It gives us the target, “he said.
'Give us respect immediately as any other Australian, consider us equal citizens.
'In his rhetoric unfortunately, [this] Doesn't come across. '

Mr Kadri had told the Courier Mail on Monday that the 'division of the opposition leader' visited the mosque 'inconsistent' with the values of the community.
The comments followed a statement by leaders from Al Madinah Masjid in West Sydney after a visit from Mr Dutton on Sunday, so that the meeting was not an approval of the liberal party.
Members had hoped that Mr Dutton would tackle earlier critical comments about some Muslim -Australians who would be made as immigration -Minister in 2016 during his time.
Mr Dutton said that the Fraser government 'made mistakes by bringing some people to Australia to Australia in the 1970s.
When he would go to whom he referred during a asking time debate, Mr Dutton pointed his finger on the Lebanese Muslim immigrants.
“The advice I have is that of the last 33 people accused of terrorist-related violations in this country, 22 of those people from the second and third generation are Lebanese-Muslim background,” he said.
Daily Mail Australia has contacted Mr Dutton's office for comment.
On Monday, reporters asked the opposition leader for his response to concern about his rhetoric and whether he had plans to publicly apologize.

“People must be able to live in our country, in our society, especially in the 21st century, peacefully and with freedom,” he said.
'I do not tolerate any attacks on mosques, not on churches, not on temples, not at any place of worship.
“People may have disagreements about religion, but in our country we respect the points of difference and we have to make sure that when they go to a place of worship, we can make them do freely.”
When asked again if he would apologize, Mr Dutton avoided the question.
“I have never discriminated against a criminal. I'm against them all, “he said.
'If someone commits an act of violence against someone and is based on religious, I am dead against that. There I have been in consistent all my career.
And it is not only Mr Dutton who was criticized last week during a visit to a mosque.
