Loading ...I am extremely pissed-off after reading an article published in The Guardian by Declan Walsh today!
You would be too… at the insensitivity… the height of illiteracy… at such preposterous traditions that, for centuries, have marred the lives of so many… women and young girls in particular!
When will we evolve and shed off these inhuman, man-made laws that give no importance to the lives and the will of a person? Where innocence is lost by sheer brutality in a tit-for-tat settlement. Women are being raped, exchanged, enslaved, killed for the sake of resolving decades old tribal feuds whose history and origin are as ridiculous as their eventual means of resolve! Young girls … ages ranging from barely months to around 15 years are flung from one side to the other as if their value is nothing more than that of a barter trade comodity.
Why has humanity died in these people and why is there nothing being done to stop this?

Illiteracy is probably the root cause of our failure …. there is so much to be done just if our ruling class gets done with judicial drama …. I was ill for a few days and had to sit in front of tv for 4 days ….I got sick n tired of all this … does not mean that I am against restoring judges, I am all for it … but its just dragging on for too long to make our nerves burst ..

WE talk about islam
& doing all unislamic things.
ARE WE BECOMING MUNAFIQEEN?
why our religious parties are not giving any statements against this?
