A number of Sri Lankan Muslim groups have called on the government to medicalise female circumcision.
The expansion of the Sharia continues, aided by the lies that non-Muslims are told. The goal is to institutionalize the Sharia everywhere, as stipulated in Islamic doctrine and law. The truth about female genital mutilation (FGM) is ably presented by “members of the All Ceylon Jamiyathul Ulama, All Ceylon YMMA Conference, Centre for Islamic Studies and United Religions Initiative,” who submitted to the Sri Lankan government:
We wish to categorically state that the practice of female circumcision is an obligatory Islamic duty, that it confers numerous benefits and is not Female Genital Mutilation. As such we condemn all moves to ban the practice of female circumcision by legislation and/ or by government bodies and urge that no moves be taken in this direction which we will regard as an unwarranted intrusion on and infringement of our religious duties guaranteed by the law and constitution of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka.
Societies are increasingly under pressure from Islamic lobbies that only grow when appeased. It’s a global drive. This demand for institutionalized FGM in Sri Lanka will likely be echoed in other countries, despite the fact that FGM can lead to permanent health problems, infertility and even death.
Sri Lanka is predominantly Buddhist (70.2%), followed by Hinduism (12.6), Islam (9.7%) and Catholicism (6.1%). Everywhere in the world, the House of War is challenged by the supremacist House of Islam.
“Muslim groups call for female circumcision to be medicalised”, Daily Mirror, September 7, 2018:
A number of Sri Lankan Muslim groups have called on the government to medicalise female circumcision.
In representations made to the Parliamentary Committee on Women and Gender, members of the All Ceylon Jamiyathul Ulama, All Ceylon YMMA Conference, Centre for Islamic Studies and United Religions Initiative urged the Health Ministry to withdraw a recent circular prohibiting medical professionals from carrying out female circumcision.
In their submission, the joint Muslim groups stated that the Muslim community is very concerned about moves to ban this obligatory Islamic duty on the grounds that it is Female Genital Mutilation (FGM).
“We wish to categorically state that the practice of female circumcision is an obligatory Islamic duty, that it confers numerous benefits and is not Female Genital Mutilation. As such we condemn all moves to ban the practice of female circumcision by legislation and/ or by government bodies and urge that no moves be taken in this direction which we will regard as an unwarranted intrusion on and infringement of our religious duties guaranteed by the law and constitution of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka”, the Muslim representatives said in their submission. “We also request the Ministry of Health to withdraw a recent circular it issued prohibiting medical practitioners from performing the procedure and to issue a fresh circular excluding Islamic female circumcision a.k.a hoodectomy from the definition of FGM”
Joint Spokesperson Noor Hazeema Haris said that although Muslims wholeheartedly support the abolition of traditional practices harmful to women and children such as FGM, in case it is shown to exist in Sri Lanka, the Islamic practice of female circumcision is vastly different. She pointed out that this religious obligation practiced by the Muslims of the country for centuries in keeping with the requirements of the Islamic faith is not FGM. This was evident from the Joint Ministry of Health (MOH) and WHO report on Violence and Health in Sri Lanka in 2008, which states categorically that FGM does not exist in Sri Lanka.
She pointed out that while countless Sri Lankan Muslim Women have undergone childbirth deliveries in Governmental and Private Hospitals over the past decades, not a single case has arisen where Muslim women have been shown to have undergone FGM. It is therefore very clear that Sri Lankan Muslim women have never experienced FGM.
She further pointed out that female circumcision practiced by Muslims is a very minor procedure similar to male circumcision where the prepuce of the clitoris is removed. This is the same as hoodectomy which is a legal cosmetic procedure chosen by women to improve genital hygiene and enhance their sex lives.
“It is something that is arranged and done by women. Those who say this is male oppression against women are mistaken. It is we who do it just like our mothers and grandmothers and countless generations of our women have done. We continue to practice it because we know it benefits us. Even educated Muslim women support it wholeheartedly”, she added……

FGM can’t be medicalized. It isn’t done for medical reasons.

Me thinks Islamic Supremists should have to undergo removing a good portion of their penis! And they’re reproduction parts.
This must not fly in a Buddist nation! STOP ISLAMIC OCCUPATION OF THE WORLD OF COUNTRIES WHERE THEY DO NOT BELONG!
STOP ISLAMIC SUPREMISTS IN THEIR TRACKS!

Sri Lanka: Muslim groups say “female circumcision is an obligatory Islamic duty,” condemn moves to ban it
……………………
God, I hate Islam. And Sri Lanka is not even Muslim-majority.
Garry says
What a sick society! This medieval ideology needs to embrace the 21st century. When will they open their eyes?
Garfield says
Jim Jones cult members drank the kool aid rather than wake up. Cult members rarely wake up…
But they extra don’t when they feel like they benefit from being in the cult.
Like other cults, Islam thrives on secrecy and lies. The more facts about it that are exposed, the more likely any of them will open their eyes and reject it.
The less acceptance of them trying to intimidate and push sharia law and the less cowering the better. Otherwize, they think their cult works great for them, don’t they?
So we have to tell everyone we know to read this site, and challenge people when they try to call us racist or whatever else for pointing out facts about a dangerous ideology based on hate.
It’s hard to do…But I’m getting to where I don’t want to be friends with people too stupid to listen and think. Offend people if you have to. There needs to be a USA left for the next generation. One where y
we can speak freely, where there is separation of church and state, freedom of and freedom from religion. Speak up.
Garfield says
How long till western women start cheering for this and defending the practice??????
Have you heard ANY feminists speak against this? Susan Sarandon? Rosie O Donell? Hillary? Beyonce, maybe? How about Alyssa Milano?
If the left takes up this cause and starts saying there’s some kind of health benefit…. then it will be clear they are actually crazy and not merely ignorant.

Allah is so thick and stupid that Allah can’t even design human bodies correctly according to Iz-lam. Allah should have learned about what inbreeding does.
sandra bo says
Best response yet!
Richard Kruse says
Maybe Allah was inbred too, so he never thought to pass this on to his, err, “massenger.”

Dear Christine,
Thank-you for your good work in exposing this most atrocious of Islamic customs.
I have just posted this same comment under your article about authorities in the UK taking action.
If the government was serious, there would be annual examinations of girls in all schools. When one was found to be mutilated, the father and mother get deported.
Or, when a girl is found to be mutilated, the head of the penis of the father, just the top inch, should be removed without anesthetic. He also would then feel no pleasure from the sexual act. If the father is not available, the next oldest male family member should be shortened in his place.
What marvelous opportunities would be created for family sharing in this famous Islamic custom. Implement that and the problem would disappear instantly.
Malcolm Jackson says
Spot on Bear Tom. Should be written in to British Law.

Sounds more like brain enlargement should be on the medical to-do list for these people ….

If the claim by those Muslim groups is true that “female circumcision is an obligatory Islamic duty.” This should be enough to prove that Islam is actually is a religion of misogyny . What’s more, this further exposes that Islam is a most cruel brutal malice-filled and heartless misogynist religion of earth.
Furthermore this heinous Islamic practice is inappropriately termed “female circumcision” The term “female genital mutilation ” is much more fitting for that hideous Islamic action of misogyny This savage Islamic custom of misogyny has been exposed in the book by Brigitte Gabriel which is entitled THEY MUST BE STOPPED. For on page 178 it reveals to the reader that “One of the most devastating practices to young girls of the Islamic world is female genital mutilation. Young girls have their clitoris removed without anesthesia…”
Indeed, they must be stopped !
Brenda says
If female circumcision is obligatory then instead of cutting off only the foreskin in male circumcision they should cut off 1 testicle.
The awful truth says
Sri Lanka has areas that are exclusively Muslim and they are taking over, especially in cities like Kandy. They have access to unlimited funds from the Middle East at a level that the local government has no access to, politicians can be bought. In this light Burma is doing its best to immunise itself from a historical Muslim threat – yes they chased away Muslim colonists in the past. What can be done? I thank JihadWatch.
Vicky King says
Why do you think states, like Florida, with high populations of muslims, are illegally taking firearms rights from law abiding citizens? Even with republican majorities in all government branches, they intend on allowing islam to continue changing society and will not stand for a citizenry able to defend themselves against it.
Richard Kruse says
Banning FGM will put that old hag with razor blade and the dirty fingernails right out of business.
Marie Willcox says
most these rules are mans doing Not god’s, they butcher their women and little girls in the name of Allah, its not Allah is man’s sick rule, like covering their face so no other looks at her while their men look and grope most other women who are not Muslim,
This barbaric behaviour should be banned now, I would check every child and every woman, if they have been done then put the perpetrators in jail for 10 years
