Progressive Islam in Asia > The astonishing stupidity of Queers for Palestine; Iranian stripper girl disappears under 'psychological treatment'; Iraq's to lower marriage age to 9 for girls; Kurds jailed for mourning Amini; Bangladesh demands 'Jizya' tax from Hindus

 

Islamic countries in Asia are becoming more hardline, Sharia-friendly by the day. Afghanistan's Taliban, Iran's Revolutionary government, Iraq's ultra right Islamic government, and now Bangladesh is finding its way to strict Islam. Islam, unfortunately, is like sin, it's progressive. Europe beware.


Afghanistan: Taliban publicly flog two men

on charges of having same-sex relations


The “Queers For Palestine” balloon still will never land.


Taliban Publicly Flogs Two Men In Paktika

Afghanistan International, November 5, 2024:

The Taliban’s Supreme Court announced that it had flogged two men in the Khoshamand district of Paktika province on charges of having same-sex relations.

The court said on Tuesday that it had sentenced the men with 36 lashes in public.

The Taliban’s Supreme Court announced in a statement that the flogging sentences were carried out on Monday, November 4, by the group’s primary court in Khoshamand district of Paktika province.

The Taliban have sentenced them to one year and eight months in prison.

Earlier, this court had announced the execution of a flogging sentence against a man in Maidan Wardak on charges of having sexual relations with another man….

And yet, QfP are out on the streets of the world demonstrating in support of Islam. Or, perhaps they do not know that Palestinians are Muslims? Or, perhaps they do not know that Muslims are Islamic? Or, perhaps they are just plain dumb a a post?





In devout Muslim countries, anyone who defies Sharia is considered mentally ill and needs to be heavily treated with psychotic drugs. China has a similar program from which graduates brains are rendered virtually unusable.

This poor young girl has more guts than brains, but is in desperate need of our prayers.



Iran: Woman who stripped to protest hijab laws is

‘experiencing psychological challenges

and is receiving treatment’


In the West, authorities like to pretend that jihadis are mentally ill. In Iran, authorities like to pretend that women who dislike the Sharia restrictions they must live under are mentally ill. This woman, Ahoo Daryaei, could very easily be killed. Iran’s Islamic regime was struggling, but then the Biden-Harris regime propped it up with $10 billion, and so it has no worries now.


Student who stripped on campus undergoing treatment, Iran minister says

Iran International, November 6, 2024:

The female university student who shed her clothing on Saturday in an apparent protest over Islamic dress code enforcement was not expelled and is now undergoing treatment, an Iranian minister said on Wednesday without providing details.

“Investigations revealed that she is experiencing family and psychological challenges and is currently receiving treatment with her family’s support,” science minister Hossein Simaei Sarraf said.

Sarraf provided no additional details about the woman’s medical diagnosis, the reasons for her treatment or where it is taking place.

Footage widely circulated on Saturday showing the woman in her underwear at Tehran’s Azad University, with officers eventually forcibly detaining her. A university official later said that the student was sent to a police station due to “severe psychological distress.”

The incident ignited an online backlash, with many viewing it as a familiar tactic by authorities to delegitimize female protesters by portraying them as mentally unstable.

Meanwhile, government spokesperson Fatemeh Mohajerani denied reports of any harsh confrontation, saying during a Wednesday press briefing: “The situation was handled very well. There was no harsh confrontation, and she was transferred via social emergency services,” she told reporters….

Iraq to lower ‘age of consent’ for girls to nine

at behest of Shia Muslim parties


Iraq to lower the ‘age of consent’ for girls to nine

by Lilia Sebouai, Telegraph, November 7, 2024:

Iraq is poised to slash the legal age of consent from 18 to to nine, allowing men to marry young children.

The proposed legal change also deprives women of rights to divorce, child custody and inheritance.

Iraq’s parliament, which is dominated by a coalition of conservative Shia Muslim parties, is preparing to vote through an amendment that would overturn the country’s “personal status law”….

The governing coalition says the move aligns with a strict interpretation of Islamic law and is intended to protect young girls from “immoral relationships”….

Iraq already has high rates of child marriage. According to the United Nations Children’s Fund (Unicef), some 28 per cent of women in Iraq are married by 18.

This is because of a loophole in the personal status law which allows religious leaders, instead of the courts, to officiate thousands of marriages each year – including those involving girls as young as 15, with permission from the father.

These unregistered marriages are widespread in economically poor, ultra-conservative Shia communities in Iraq.

But because the nuptials are not recognised by law, the girls and any children they have are denied a plethora of rights.

For example, hospitals can refuse women admitted for childbirth without a marriage certificate.

The amendment would legitimise these religious marriages, putting young girls at increased risk of sexual and physical violence, as well as being denied access to education and employment…




Iran: Three Kurdish men get prison for mourning woman who was killed for wearing improper hijab


The goal of such actions is always to terrorize the population into submission.

“Make ready for them all that you can of force and of warhorses, so that by them you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy…” (Qur’an 8:60)


Three Kurdish Men Sentenced to Prison in Iran for Mourning Mahsa Amini

Iran Wire, November 5, 2024 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Three Kurdish men from Oshnavieh have been sentenced to 16 months in prison each for participating in protests marking the second anniversary of Mahsa Amini’s death.

According to the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, Branch 101 of Oshnavieh Criminal Court 2 convicted Diako Azizi (34), Loqman Zangi (52), and his son Siamand Zangi (22) on charges of “association and collaboration with the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan. ”

The court handed down the sentences on October 26.

The men were initially detained on September 4, part of a wider crackdown on Kurdish citizens ahead of Amini’s death anniversary….




Bangladesh: Muslim groups demand

jizya payment from Hindus


Islamic apologists in the West like to insist that the Qur’anic stipulation that Muslims must collect the jizya from subjugated non-Muslims is outmoded and has no modern applicability. They don’t seem to have gotten the message in Bangladesh.

Non-Muslims paying for the upkeep of Muslims is a Qur’anic dictate:

“Fight against those do not believe in Allah or the last day, and do not forbid what Allah and his messenger have forbidden, and do not follow the religion of truth, even if they are among the people of the book, until they pay the jizya with willing submission and feel themselves subdued.” (Qur’an 9:29).

The caliph Umar said the jizya payments from the dhimmis were the source of the Muslims’ livelihood:

“Narrated Juwairiya bin Qudama at-Tamimi: We said to `Umar bin Al-Khattab, ‘O Chief of the believers! Advise us.’ He said, ‘I advise you to fulfill Allah’s Convention (made with the Dhimmis) as it is the convention of your Prophet and the source of the livelihood of your dependents (i.e. the taxes from the Dhimmis.)’” (Bukhari 4.53.388)

Bangladesh restricts Durga Puja celebrations, organisers asked to pay ‘jizya’ tax, maintain silence during Namaaz

Mint, October 3, 2024:

Durga Puja celebrations (celebrating the Hindu goddess Durga) got off to a rocky start in Bangladesh with the interim government and various Muslim bodies denying permission in several areas. The organising committees were also reportedly asked to maintain silence during Namaaz offerings and pay ₹5 lakh (nearly 6,000 USD) each as ‘jizya’. The developments came in the wake of multiple reports of idol vandalism and looting across the country.

According to the Daily Star report in late September, several Durga Puja committees have received threat letters asking them to pay ৳ 5,00,000 (nearly 600 USD) if they wished to celebrate the festival. Several Hindu temples in the Dakop area of Khulna had also filed a police complaint after receiving threat letters.

Meanwhile the Dhaka Tribune reported last month that the Muhammad Yunus-led interim government had advised Puja committess to keep their musical instruments and sound systems switched off during azaan and namaaz. The statement was reportedly made by Home Affairs Adviser Lt Gen (retd) Md Jahangir Alam Chowdhury after a law and order meeting….
