Three Girls Die After FGM Rituals in Sierra Leone
Feb 2^nd, 2024 at 8:59pm

I was sickened, angered, and saddened to read THIS article today.

I simply can't believe that this sort of thing is still taking place
anywhere in the world in the 21st century.

At the least, Aminata Koroma, the executive secretary of the Forum
Against Harmful Practices (FAHP), an organisation working to end
FGM in Sierra Leone, said the girls’ parents and those who cut them
were in police custody.

In 2012 the UN passed a resolution to ban it, but it is still practised in
about 31 countries; current estimates show at least 200 million
women and girls have been subjected to FGM.

Quote:

Circumcision of girls and some doctors’ criticism thereof

Firstly:

Circumcision is not an inherited custom as some people claim, rather it is prescribed in Islam and the scholars are unanimously agreed that it is prescribed. Not a single Muslim scholar – as far as we know – has said that circumcision is not prescribed.

Secondly:

With regard to the criticism of circumcision by some doctors, and their claim that it is harmful both physically and psychologically,

This criticism of theirs is not valid. It is sufficient for us Muslims that something be proven to be from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), then we will follow it, and we are certain that it is beneficial and not harmful. If it were harmful, Allaah and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) would not have prescribed it for us.

In the answer to question no. 45528 we have mentioned some of the medical benefits of circumcision for women, quoting from some doctors.

Quote:

Medical benefits of female circumcision

Praise be to Allah.

Mentioning some of these benefits, Dr. Haamid al-Ghawaabi says:

The secretions of the labia minora accumulate in uncircumcised women and turn rancid, so they develop an unpleasant odour which may lead to infections of the vagina or urethra. I have seen many cases of sickness caused by the lack of circumcision.

Circumcision reduces excessive sensitivity of the clitoris which may cause it to increase in size to 3 centimeters when aroused, which is very annoying to the husband, especially at the time of intercourse.

Another benefit of circumcision is that it prevents stimulation of the clitoris which makes it grow large in such a manner that it causes pain.

Circumcision prevents spasms of the clitoris which are a kind of inflammation.

Circumcision reduces excessive sexual desire.

For us in the Muslim world female circumcision is, above all else, obedience to Islam, which means acting in accordance with the fitrah and following the Sunnah which encourages it.

If you object to FGM some dopey leftist might call you an Islamophobe

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.

What he seems to be saying is that children, girls, dying from Islamic inspired FMG is not as bad as children dying in a war zone if they're killed by Israelis. Huh

Nope, I've never once implied that, or voiced such an opinion here. He's putting words in my mouth.
