School principal threatens family
Muslim Man Rapes 6-y/o Christian Girl at School
International Christian Concern, November 15, 2024:
Earlier this month, a 6-year-old girl was raped by a Muslim security guard at her school in Lahore, Pakistan.
The girl is from Faisla town B Block and attends a local private school, according to an International Christian Concern (ICC) staffer. Her family and members of the local Christian community said the staff member, named Husnain, sexually assaulted her because of her family’s Christian faith.
When the girl returned home from school that day in late October, her family noticed blood stains on her clothes and bruises on her body. The girl shared what had happened and identified the school’s security guard, Husnain, as the attacker. She said that he had covered her mouth to silence her during the assault.
The girl’s mother and father met with the school’s principal, who initially told them the girl had fallen. When the parents shared what their daughter had told them, the principal threatened them, saying they would face problems if they took any action.
=====================
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
Islamic Republic of Iran: Woman arrested for not
wearing hijab while being attacked by man on street
The Qur’an says: “O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves of their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.” (33:59) The implication there is that if women do not cover themselves adequately with their outer garments, they may be abused, and that such abuse would be justified.
Woman arrested for not wearing a hijab while being attacked by a man on street
by Gergana Krasteva, Metro, November 13, 2024 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
A woman has been detained for not wearing a hijab while being harassed by a man in Iran’s capital of Tehran.
Footage circulating on X and seen by Metro shows a motorcyclist ambushing the victim on a street in the middle of the day.
She has been identified as Roshanak Molaei Alishah, a Turkish woman from Tabriz in the East Azerbaijan Province.
In a CCTV video, the 25-year-old is seen trying to push off her attacker from his bike, shouting at him and berating him for his actions.
What it also shows is that she was not wearing a head covering made mandatory as part of the Islamic Republic’s draconian laws dictating the lives of women and girls in the country.
Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, a Norway-based Kurdish NGO, revealed that Roshanak has since been detained by security forces, and her fate remains unknown.
She was previously also arrested and imprisoned for participating in the protests for the ‘Woman, Life, Freedom’ movement following the killing in custody of 22-year-old Mahsa (Jina) Amini.
Separately, the Center for Human Rights in Iran said that the victim was detained on November 3 after posting the video in which she confronted her harasser.
In the days to follow the video has been deleted while her account suspended….
