India: Muslim girl murdered by her father and brother

for being in a relationship with Hindu boy

AUG 10, 2023 11:00 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER

The Qur’an forbids Muslim men to marry “polytheistic” women: “Do not marry idolatresses until they believe, for indeed, a believing slave woman is better than an idolatress, even though she pleases you. And do not give your daughters in marriage to idolaters until they believe, for indeed, a believing slave is better than an idolater, even though he pleases you. These people invite you to the fire, and Allah invites you to the garden, and to forgiveness by his grace, and explains his signs to mankind so that perhaps they will remember.” (Qur’an 2:221)

20-year-old Afreen from Amethi killed by father and brother for being in a relationship

with a Hindu boy, body buried to hide the truth: Exclusive FIR details

by Siddhi Somani, OpIndia, August 8, 2023:

In a horrific case from Uttar Pradesh, a 20-year-old girl named Afreen was brutally beaten by her father and her brother for being in a relationship with a Hindu boy. The girl’s father identified as Niyamat Ullah, and her brother Haider Ali killed her and then buried her in a nearby piece of land.

As per the initial reports, the incident is said to have taken place on August 4 in the Tikawwar village of Amethi’s Piparpura region. The girl, studying in class 12, was in a relationship with a boy named Sarvesh Sharma. Her relationship with the boy was not acceptable at home and the girl was warned several times by her father and her brother.

The girl, however, was caught in the main market area of the village by Niyamat Ullah and Haider Ali while she had gone there to meet the boy. She was then beaten up by the father-son duo in the market, the video of which was shared on social media by one user.

The duo could be seen in the video dragging the girl and slapping her in the presence of other people in the market.

Reportedly, Amethi police took cognisance of the event and called everyone to the police station for inquiry. They were later sent home only after the girl’s mother was called to the police station.

According to the sources, the girl was then brutally beaten by her father and brother resulting in her death. She was later buried in a nearby piece of land on August 5. The neighbours, and other relatives of the family, were told that the girl was ill and that she died due to lack of treatment….

UK: Muslim beats teen daughter with iron bar because 

he thinks she’s meeting a boy, gets suspended sentence

‘Monster’ dad left daughter, 15, unconscious after battering her with a metal bar

and BITING her outside school

by Harrison Galliven and Nicole Wootton-Cane, 

Manchester Evening News, August 7, 2023:

A ‘monster’ father who beat his teenage daughter with a metal bar and left her unconscious in a horrific attack outside her school has avoided jail.

Delivery driver Hussein Alinzi, 59, battered the 15-year old on the morning of her English GCSE exam outside the south Manchester school. He accused her of turning up early to school to secretly meet a boy and berated her for wearing make-up.

The daughter had in fact been advised by teachers to arrive at the school early ahead of her exam – and the only reason she had make-up on was to cover up bruises Alinzi had inflicted on her in earlier beatings, Manchester Crown Court heard.

Following the attack outside the school gates, the youngster was found to have suffered 14 different types of injury – including facial bruising – and was also treated for a bite mark to her left temple. She briefly lost consciousness but came around and subsequently tried to sit the test. However she complained of feeling dizzy and nauseous and was taken out of the exam hall before being admitted to A&E.

She later filed a report to her teachers and then police telling how her father had previously maltreated and bullied her over a two year period, issuing threats including: “I will run you over,” and “I will kill you,” and “I hope you die.”

She also said he had prevented her from going to the park and was only allowed to have female family friends. It emerged she had only been wearing make-up to school on the advice of her mother to cover up bruises he had inflicted on her in earlier beatings.

Father-of-seven Alinzi, who has since had to move out of his family home in Fallowfield, faced jail after he admitted assault occasioning actual bodily harm but he was freed with an eight month prison sentence suspended for 18 months when his daughter said she still loved him.

In a statement the teenager, now 16, said: “I initially didn’t want to provide a statement or evidence as I did not want to cause further pain to my family. When my father was arrested, I felt safe that he was not here, but sad that he was not home.

”My Mum struggles to look after my younger brother and I felt guilty that I brought shame on my family. I love my Dad and I can see that his attitude has now changed. This has made me realise how people can actually change.

”Since he has not been living with us, I have become more independent. My brother needs to live with his Dad, and he needs him back. I actually feel happy as all this has changed him, it has made him realise what [he] can and can’t do.”

‘He pulled out a metal bar and struck her’

The attack occurred on June 22 last year after the daughter was advised by teachers to arrive early for her English exam.

Mr Wayne Jackson, prosecuting, said: ”The defendant drove her to school and arrived at the gates at 7.30am only to find they were closed. The defendant then began to shout at his daughter and accused her of wanting to come to school early, so she could meet a boy. He then shouted at her for wearing make-up when in fact her mother asked her to cover up her facial bruises with make-up following previous incidents.

“He then pulled out a metal bar, measuring 30cm in length, from underneath the car seat and struck his daughter a number of times to the arm and head whilst continuing to shout at her. The metal rod was kept under his car seat for protection, as he was a delivery driver.

‘He then paused the assault, before driving down the road and hitting her again. There was also evidence of him biting her on her left temple.”

In her initial report to teachers the girl said her father had assaulted her with a metal bar causing her several bruises to her arm, back and face. She said she ‘couldn’t take it anymore’, and that ‘it had been going on for a long time.” The report also showed that she had bruises all over her body in the past and that she was scared to go home and that psychological abuse was ”commonplace” in her house….

I wonder what other kind o abuse was taking place in that home. The father seems to be acting as though insanely jealous. Or, was it just another case of Islamic hysteria?

Alinzi, of Wellington Road, Old Moat, was also ordered to complete 80 hours of unpaid work and 25 rehabilitation activity days….

And note that the daughter didn’t want to testify, because doing so would bring shame on the family. Her father’s behavior wouldn’t bring shame on the family, but her testifying would. Why? Because this kind of treatment of women is sanctioned in Islam.

The Qur’an teaches that men are superior to women and should beat those from whom they “fear disobedience”: “Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because Allah has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them.” — Qur’an 4:34

Muhammad’s child bride, Aisha, says in a hadith that Muhammad “struck me on the chest which caused me pain, and then said: ‘Did you think that Allah and His Apostle would deal unjustly with you?’” — Sahih Muslim 2127

An another hadith states: “Rifa`a divorced his wife whereupon `AbdurRahman bin Az-Zubair Al-Qurazi married her. `Aisha said that the lady (came), wearing a green veil (and complained to her (Aisha) of her husband and showed her a green spot on her skin caused by beating). It was the habit of ladies to support each other, so when Allah’s Messenger came, Aisha said, ‘I have not seen any woman suffering as much as the believing women. Look! Her skin is greener than her clothes!’” — Sahih Bukhari 7.77.5825

Meanwhile, imagine if all the circumstances of this case were exactly the same, except that Hussein Alinzi was a native Englishman and a non-Muslim. Do you think he would have gotten such a lenient sentence? Neither do I.

Germany: Afghan Muslim migrant pays $7,000 for 13-year-old bride

Process: Migrant paid 6,500 euros for the bride – she is only 13!

translated from “Prozess: Migrant zahlte 6500 Euro für Braut – sie ist erst 13!,” 

Exxpress, August 8, 2023:

There are scenes like in a bazaar in Kabul that took place in the middle of Germany. Adana Q. (26), an illiterate farmer from Afghanistan, was determined to marry a girl. The fact that the chosen one was only 13 years old and that she was closely related to him did not bother him. Apparently, the future father-in-law had no problem selling his underage child to a man. Without batting an eyelid, he pocketed a dowry of 6,500 euros.

After the deal, the migrant threw a round and celebrated a party with his buddies in the asylum center. But the groom had reckoned without his future wife. The girl, who arrived in the West in contrast to Adnan Q., refused the forced marriage. With the corresponding consequences: the displaced Afghan repeatedly ambushed him and threatened him. He even caught the teenager after school with a drawn knife and hit the teenager.

His public defender: “He sees himself as a victim" 

The failed forced wedding now has a judicial aftermath. Adnan Q., who came with the great wave of refugees in 2015 and works as a cleaner, has to face criminal charges for coercion and threats. At the same time, there is a dispute about the return of the 6,500 euro dowry. “Do you think women can be bought? If you shell out money, you can marry a woman?” the judge asked him. Answer: “In Afghanistan they do it that way, and here, too. I’m not the only one.”

The Afghan’s public defender: “He sees himself as a victim. He feels used and taken advantage of.”

Then it became too much for the judge: “You have no right to get the money back, because according to German law you should never do something like that. Then the money is just gone.” The court has adjourned, the verdict will follow shortly.

“In Afghanistan they do it that way, and here, too. I’m not the only one.”

Oh, I’m sure.

Islamic tradition records that Muhammad consummated his marriage with (i.e., raped) Aisha when she was nine, and the resultant fact that child marriage is accepted in wide swaths of the Islamic world. Child marriage has abundant attestation in Islamic tradition and law.

Turkey’s directorate of religious affairs (Diyanet) said in January 2018 that under Islamic law, girls as young as nine can marry.

“Islam has no age barrier in marriage and Muslims have no apology for those who refuse to accept this” — Ishaq Akintola, professor of Islamic Eschatology and Director of Muslim Rights Concern, Nigeria

“There is no minimum marriage age for either men or women in Islamic law. The law in many countries permits girls to marry only from the age of 18. This is arbitrary legislation, not Islamic law.” — Dr. Abd Al-Hamid Al-‘Ubeidi, Iraqi expert on Islamic law

There is no minimum age for marriage and that girls can be married “even if they are in the cradle.” — Dr. Salih bin Fawzan, prominent cleric and member of Saudi Arabia’s highest religious council

“Islam does not forbid marriage of young children.” — Pakistan’s Council of Islamic Ideology

Hadiths that Muslims consider authentic record that Muhammad’s favorite wife, Aisha, was six when Muhammad wedded her and nine when he consummated the marriage:

“The Prophet wrote the (marriage contract) with Aisha while she was six years old and consummated his marriage with her while she was nine years old and she remained with him for nine years (i.e. till his death)” (Bukhari 7.62.88).

Another tradition has Aisha herself recount the scene:

The Prophet engaged me when I was a girl of six (years). We went to Medina and stayed at the home of Bani-al-Harith bin Khazraj. Then I got ill and my hair fell down. Later on my hair grew (again) and my mother, Um Ruman, came to me while I was playing in a swing with some of my girl friends. She called me, and I went to her, not knowing what she wanted to do to me. She caught me by the hand and made me stand at the door of the house. I was breathless then, and when my breathing became all right, she took some water and rubbed my face and head with it. Then she took me into the house. There in the house I saw some Ansari women who said, “Best wishes and Allah’s Blessing and a good luck.” Then she entrusted me to them and they prepared me (for the marriage). Unexpectedly Allah’s Apostle came to me in the forenoon and my mother handed me over to him, and at that time I was a girl of nine years of age. (Bukhari 5.58.234).

Muhammad was at this time fifty-four years old.

Marrying young girls was not all that unusual for its time, but because in Islam Muhammad is the supreme example of conduct (cf. Qur’an 33:21), he is considered exemplary in this unto today. And so in April 2011, the Bangladesh Mufti Fazlul Haque Amini declared that those trying to pass a law banning child marriage in that country were putting Muhammad in a bad light: “Banning child marriage will cause challenging the marriage of the holy prophet of Islam, [putting] the moral character of the prophet into controversy and challenge.” He added a threat: “Islam permits child marriage and it will not be tolerated if any ruler will ever try to touch this issue in the name of giving more rights to women.” The Mufti said that 200,000 jihadists were ready to sacrifice their lives for any law restricting child marriage.

Likewise the influential website Islamonline.com in December 2010 justified child marriage by invoking not only Muhammad’s example, but the Qur’an as well:

The Noble Qur’an has also mentioned the waiting period [i.e. for a divorced wife to remarry] for the wife who has not yet menstruated, saying: “And those who no longer expect menstruation among your women, if you doubt, then their period is three months, and [also for] those who have not menstruated” [Qur’an 65:4]. Since this is not negated later, we can take from this verse that it is permissible to have sexual intercourse with a prepubescent girl. The Qur’an is not like the books of jurisprudence which mention what the implications of things are, even if they are prohibited. It is true that the prophet entered into a marriage contract with A’isha when she was six years old, however he did not have sex with her until she was nine years old, according to al-Bukhari.

Other countries make Muhammad’s example the basis of their laws regarding the legal marriageable age for girls. Article 1041 of the Civil Code of the Islamic Republic of Iran states that girls can be engaged before the age of nine, and married at nine: “Marriage before puberty (nine full lunar years for girls) is prohibited. Marriage contracted before reaching puberty with the permission of the guardian is valid provided that the interests of the ward are duly observed.”

According to Amir Taheri in The Spirit of Allah: Khomeini and the Islamic Revolution (pp. 90-91), Iran’s Ayatollah Khomeini himself married a ten-year-old girl when he was twenty-eight. Khomeini called marriage to a prepubescent girl “a divine blessing,” and advised the faithful to give their own daughters away accordingly: “Do your best to ensure that your daughters do not see their first blood in your house.” When he took power in Iran, he lowered the legal marriageable age of girls to nine, in accord with Muhammad’s example.
