Palestinian Propaganda led to Muslim-Jew marriage and divorce. One Survivor's Story!

 

Why one should always hesitate to believe a Muslim. One Survivor's Story!


Israeli woman whom media used as example of

how Jewish-Muslim couples could live together

reveals the shocking truth


Her husband was actually using her to get an Israeli ID card, and beat her.

Where could he have gotten the idea that beating his wife was acceptable?

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

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

Jewish Woman Reveals Truth About Marriage to Arab

Anash.org, November 12, 2024:

Dana, a young Jewish woman who married an Arab, appeared 12 years ago on TV broadcast denouncing her Judaism, “After my child’s birth, I started reading from the Koran.” Now, she came back to share the full truth of her experience.

The headline of the news piece was “The Women Who Converted to Islam and Moved to the Territories,” and it was an attempt to show how mixed Jewish-Muslim couples live happily ever after.

“As is often the case, the road to the territories is through the heart,” said interviewer Ohad Hamu in the Channel 12 TV broadcast 12 years ago, describing with pathos the story of a young Jewish woman who had fallen in love with an Arab, converted to Islam and moved in with him in Yericho.

“When I start praying, a stone falls from my heart. I start to breathe,” said Yael (a pseudonym), wearing a black veil that revealed only her eyes.

“Between me and G-d, I am a Muslim,” she declared, spreading out a rug on which to bow down for Muslim prayer. “After my child’s birth, I didn’t say ‘Shema Yisrael,’ but started reading from the Koran. That’s what finalized things for me, no doubt about it.”

Her Muslim husband, photographed at her side, shared the story of how they met. In another scene, she is photographed with her mother-in-law hugging and smiling, while the interviewer jokes about her daughter-in-law’s Arabic accent.

“They start a new life, exposed to prejudice, to racism as well as to hatred,” says the interviewer, referring to how they are viewed by her Jewish family and friends. “I am not a free person. I am afraid. I am afraid of the religious organizations and my family.”

It is only towards the end of the segment when the real motive behind the broadcast becomes clear. The husband’s lawyer talks about how the Israeli authorities are making it difficult for him to receive a blue Israeli ID card, and hoping the piece will pressure them.

Looking back at that interview 12 years ago, the Jewish woman featured in the clip, who’s real name is Dana, admitted the truth. “We did the interview so he could get a blue ID card,” she conceded. “They forced me to take a picture with the veil and the prayer rug. I did everything they told me, like a robot. That’s how I was there, like a zombie, doing what I was told without question.”

It’s been about four years since Dana left the destructive, violent relationship, but the rehabilitation process is ongoing. “My exit from there was a miracle,” she tells leading Israeli interviewer Yinon Magal, in the hope that her story will lead others to sever their relationships with Muslim partners.

“I want to inspire real hope,” she says. “I hear about what the female hostages went through in Gaza, and I understand them.”

Dana lived in Yericho for more than 10 years and bore five children to her Muslim husband before managing to escape, with the help of Yad L’Achim. Now, after the Simchas Torah massacre, she hopes that women in her previous situation will understand that they are being exploited and abused.

“The truth blew up in my face,” she says. “In that interview with Channel 12, I said that I was an example of how Jewish-Muslim couples could live together, but that was simply not true. It was an unhappy life.”

In an interview with Hadas Tzuri in Olam Katan, Dana revealed that she first met her Arab partner in Eilat, where she lived after completing her military service. “My father died when I was a child, and I didn’t have a father figure at home,” she recalled. “My mother did the best she could, but I wasn’t coping with the situation and so ran away from home. The Arab came into my life when I was particularly vulnerable, when I didn’t want to return home, but wanted someone to love and take care of me. He covered the cost of my rent and cigarettes, and showered me with gifts. He gave me everything I needed, but only until he no longer needed me.”

In what way did he no longer need you?

“As soon as he realized that being married to me wouldn’t get him the blue ID card, he changed completely,” she recalled. “I went through terrible things, being subjected to stone throwing, slapping and humiliation in front of the children. I didn’t have any say in our home. The truth is I could have died a long time ago. There was nothing that could have kept him from killing me. I am a walking miracle.”

Do all the women there live like that?

“The majority do,” she said. “The situation for all the women is bad, and there is no one to help them.”…

Does Islam Hate Girls? > Certainly, the Taliban Does

 

Afghanistan: Divorced child brides forced to return to former husbands


Islamic tradition records that Muhammad consummated his marriage with (i.e., raped) Aisha when she was nine, and the resultant fact that child marriage and the sexualization of children are taken for granted in wide swaths of the Islamic world.

“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. Nowadays in the West there are elaborate efforts to deny all this. An Islamic scholar/apologist named Joshua Little has constructed an elaborate argument from close study of the chains of transmitters (isnads) of various traditions about Aisha, claiming that those traditions, despite appearing in Sahih Bukhari, the hadith collection Muslims consider most reliable, are actually inauthentic. Little’s argument, however, is absurd and self-contradictory. He acknowledges that the hadiths are late and unreliable from a historical standpoint, and even admits that the chains of transmitters, like the stories themselves, were freely forged. Then he bases his whole argument for the traditions being inauthentic even on Islamic grounds on the basis of the isnads that he just admitted could be forged. He claims to be able to determine the age of various traditions by how they were forged, but here is argument is so conjectural and subjective as to be essentially worthless.

Little is also a standard-issue lemming academic. He denounces people he calls “Islamophobes” for making much of Muhammad’s marriage to Aisha. He ignores the primary reason why anyone cares about this: not because, as he claims, “Islamophobes” contend that Muhammad’s example forces Muslims to condone child marriage, but because all too many Islamic authorities do condone child marriage. 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.

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




Divorced Afghan child brides forced to return to former husbands

under Taliban rule

Jerusalem Post, September 29, 2024:

The Taliban is attempting to force divorced child brides to return to their adult former husbands, despite the girls having been granted divorce by the Afghan government, the BBC reported on Sunday, citing the case of Bibi Nazdana.

Nazdana, who has now fled Afghanistan with her brother, spent two years pursuing a divorce which the Taliban claimed is invalid based on the terror group’s interpretation of Sharia law. Her case is reportedly one of tens of thousands.

At seven years old, Nazdana had been promised to a farmer in an attempt to reconcile feuding families. She petitioned the Afghan courts, who ruled in her favor, ending her marriage, the BBC said….

After her former husband appealed to the courts in 2021, demanding the divorce be revoked, the Taliban disallowed Nazdana from representing herself – insisting that it violated Sharia law. Instead, the Taliban had Nazdana’s brother Shams represent her, according to the BBC.

“They told us if we didn’t comply,” said Shams to the BBC, “they would hand my sister over to him (Hekmatullah) by force.”

Despite her brother’s representation, the Taliban-led court ruled in favor of Nazdana’s former husband – a registered member of the terror group….

“I have knocked on many doors asking for help, including the UN, but no one has heard my voice,” she told the BBC. “Where is the support? Don’t I deserve freedom as a woman?”…

Frankly, I'm surprised the BBC would even tell your story. Please pray for this girl and the thousands like her in Afghanistan.

Dad kidnaps 2 y/o daughter in Amsterdam, takes her to India 8 years ago. Mom still trying to get her back.

 

Did it even once occur to the dad to do what was the best thing for the child? Or, was his motive completely selfish?

Separating a child from its Mother is child abuse. The Indian government should not support him in his abuse.

Singapore man frames wife but can't stop talking about it

 

Singapore man sentenced to almost 4 years

for drug possession in scheme to frame wife

Aug. 30 (UPI) -- A Singapore man has been sentenced to 46 months in prison for possessing cannabis he acquired to set up his wife for a potential death sentence that would enable him to get around the city-state's strict divorce requirements and escape from the marriage.

However, 37-year-old Tan Xianglong, was caught on dashcam tampering with her car in October before off-camera gaining access and hiding 1.1 pounds of drugs inside, sufficient to get her the death penalty under Singapore's tough drug trafficking law.

So, I'm wondering why he wasn't charged with attempted manslaughter?

The court heard he had earlier told his then-girlfriend in a social media chat message that he had come up with the "perfect crime" to frame his estranged wife from whom he separated in 2022, a year after they tied the knot.

But unbeknownst to Tan, less than half of the block of cannabis he had purchased from a chat forum on the social media platform Telegram -- weighing it himself to be sure it was at least 1.1 pounds -- was the real thing. Most of it was made up of filler.

"He understood that the involved party would be wrongly arrested and charged with a serious crime if his plan succeeded," the prosecution wrote in court documents.

The penalty for trafficking cannabis in Singapore, defined as selling, smuggling or attempting to smuggle 1.1 pounds or more and just a half ounce for heroin, is a mandatory death sentence and it is imposed on a frequent basis with three people executed in a little more than a week in summer 2023.

After receiving an automated tampering notification from her car, Tan's wife viewed the footage and made a harassment complaint to the police but ended up getting arrested herself after officers checking out the vehicle found 11 packages of drugs hidden between the rear passenger seats.

However, suspicion quickly fell on Tan who was arrested shortly afterward.

Online logs from his social media accounts presented by the court, show Tan telling his girlfriend he had "spent quite a bit on this" and he was pretty sure there would not be a "link back" to him.

Tan and his wife married in 2021 and separated a year later but by 2023 Tan was in debt and irked at his wife for "not contributing much" to the marriage.

He wanted out but was unable to file for divorce because Singapore mandates that couples must wait three years before they can legally end their marriage.

Tan initially hired a private investigator to gather evidence on his wife for grounds for divorce due to adultery but when that was unsuccessful he hatched the plan to frame her for drugs, believing his wife's criminal record -- or worse -- would exempt their case from the waiting period.

The court dismissed mitigation arguments from Tan's counsel that their client was suffering from depression at the time he committed the offenses because medical reports found no sign of a mental health condition.

After admitting to a single charge of cannabis possession, the court sentenced Tan to three years and 10 months, taking into account an additional count of illegal planting of evidence in the sentencing.

I think he got off too easy!

Islam > Gulf State Princess Triple Talaqs her cheating husband - Will it stand?

 

Dubai princess appears to divorce husband

in mysterious Instagram post

The daughter of Dubai’s ruler has apparently divorced her husband, according to a mysterious announcement made on her Instagram page.


Sheikha Mahrah bint Mohammed Al Maktoum, 30, is one of the youngest daughters of Dubai’s ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, who also serves as the vice-president and prime minister of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). There are six royal families in the UAE but the Maktoum house is one of the most high-profile as Dubai has grown into a global city. The Maktoums are one of the richest royal families in the world.

Wednesday post from Sheikha Mahrah’s verified Instagram account claims that her husband has been “occupied with other companions.”

“I hereby declare our divorce. I divorce you, I divorce you, and I Divorce You. Take care. Your ex-wife,” the post reads.

Sheikha Mahrah appears to be invoking a controversial Islamic custom known as triple talaq, in which a spouse can instantly divorce their partner by declaring it three times. The practice is banned in many countries, including India, where lawmakers argued it was discriminatory towards women. Opponents of the ban say it unfairly targets Muslims.

Typically, it is husbands who invoke the triple talaq to divorce their wives. Its use by Sheikha Mahrah may provoke debate among Islamic jurists as to its legitimacy.

Sheikha Mahrah married Sheikh Mana Bin Mohammed Al Maktoum, who is also a member of the Dubai royal family, in a lavish ceremony in June 2023. Shortly after, Sheikha Mahrah gave birth to their daughter, who was born in May this year.

Sheikha Mahrah appears to have removed all photos of her husband from her Instagram page. There are also no pictures of the Dubai princess on Sheikh Mana’s Instagram account.

There has been no public comment on the apparent divorce from Sheikha Mahrah’s husband or her father. The Dubai government has also not made any comment on the situation.

Some have speculated that Sheikha Mahrah’s Instagram account was hacked, but the post remains up a day after it was posted.

This is far from the first time the Dubai royal family has been embroiled in a mysterious family dispute. In 2020, a U.K. court ruled in a fact-finding judgment that Dubai ruler Sheikh Mohammed was responsible for the abduction and forced return of two of his daughters who fled Dubai.

In 2000, Sheikha Mahrah’s older half-sister Sheikha Shamsa bint Mohammed Al Maktoum fled their family’s U.K. estate in Surrey but was later abducted by agents of her father and forcibly returned to Dubai, where she remains in captivity. Sheikha Shamsa has not been seen in public since, 24 years later.

Sheikha Shamsa’s full sister Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum made two unsuccessful attempts to flee her father in 2002 and 2018. She was imprisoned in Dubai for three years after the first escape attempt. In 2018, she attempted to flee again on the yacht Nostromo, but the ship was intercepted and she was returned to Dubai.

A #FreeLatifa campaign ended in 2021 after Sheikha Latifa was photographed in public places that year.
