XenoFish Posted December 4, 2016 #3 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Brave woman. I wonder what would happen if all Saudi women did that? Of course the response to her bravery is religious stupidity at it's finest. I hope the best for her. Maybe the world will grow up one day. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For an example. the 200,000 protesting against a christian governor regarding alleged insult of the prophet and implementing the blasphemy law. thats a big difference to protesting a mosque being built.

Syarifatul Adibah, who is the Senior Programme Officer at Sisters in Islam, a local women’s rights group, insists that female circumcision isn’t once mentioned in the Quran. Instead she points to its popularity as a stemming from an increasingly conservative interpretation of Islam. “Previously it was a cultural practice but now because of Islamisation, people just relate everything to Islam. And when you link something to religion, people here follow it blindly, they don’t enquire,” she explained. The practice is not banned in Malaysia, although public hospitals are prevented from performing the surgery. More concerning however is that in 2009 the Fatwa Committee of Malaysia’s National Council of Islamic Religious Affairs ruled that female circumcision was obligatory for all Muslim women, unless it was harmful. link Female circumcision is 'ritualistic' and based on personal choices ... freedom and all that ... the option is not withheld from those that seeks it due to personal beliefs ... ~ 5 minutes ago, AdealJustice said: The Rise of Islamism and Single-Party Rule in Malaysia By David Martin Jones | Honorary Reader - University of Queensland | Aug 02, 2016 link This one though takes your cake ... your 'expert' here is applying Middle Eastern theoretic Principles and misplacing his logic here to South East Asia ... suffice to say I don't agree with his opinions in lumping a single flavor of Muslim and Islam in every 'ism' pot and plot ... Malaysia does things moderately and through 'integration' ... we embrace our differences ... as long as its according to the Golden Rule we tend to be easy going with it ... ~ 5 minutes ago, AdealJustice said: As for my misplaced Indonesia link.

You are peering at it with biased lens ... you have already pre judged and decided even before you looked to understand the situation ... its not Islam here ... its a political power of a party that base its influence on the religion of its supporters ... this Governor challenged the leaders this political party and the supporters canvassed the displeasure through numbers ... that the numbers are overwhelmingly Muslim is because Indonesia is the most populous Muslim country in the world ... And its not 'gaining' popularity ... Islam has been here in the region going back a thousand years or so ... the problem is the militant version and for that we blame the Western Warhawks for manufacturing them on a daily basis ... much alike what you are doing ... you draw the lines for aggression confrontation, you get a aggressive confrontation ... you wanna wipe them out, they will want to wipe you out first ... and so it goes ... on and on and on ... ~ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
