Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Islamic State: Caesarean births “a plot against the Muslims”

Mar 27, 2015 10:12 pm By Robert Spencer

Australia niqabThe Islamic State loves death, as they themselves cheerfully avow. They hate life. They love pain, they love suffering — when they are inflicting them upon those whom they consider the “enemies of Allah.” They are the world’s foremost evil force today, and are almost nothing except evil.

“Now ISIS clamps down on mothers having ‘un-Islamic’ Caesarean births,” by Robert Verkaik, MailOnline, March 27, 2015 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Islamic State is clamping down on Caesarean operations in the latest attack on what it perceives to be decadent Western practices.

Doctors working for ISIS have been ordered to charge 15,000 Syrian pounds for a Caesarean childbirth operation, the equivalent of two months salary for the average Syrian worker.

Under the harsh new rules enforced by the terror group, doctors who carry out the operations without charging the fee will now face unspecified punishments.

The Islamic State order stipulates that the new charges are aimed at deterring hospitals from carrying out routine Caesareans.

But the high fees will force women who can’t afford the operations to endure painful childbirth.

A written order published in the northern Syrian province of Deir az-Zor states: ‘in order to assist the believers from the sons of Islam who are working in the medical corps to support their brothers from the poor and others besides them from the Muslim populace, and with the desire to keep the course of medical work removed from arbitrary whim.’

It adds: ‘This is to be considered as tantamount to a written order and all who contravene it will be held accountable in the Dar al-Qaḍa [IS judiciary] with attendant consequence.’

There is growing opposition among Islamic clerics to Western trends in gynaecology developments and in particular to mothers who wish to have a pain-free childbirth sometimes referred to as ‘too posh to push’.

One scholar has recently claimed that the rise in Caesarean operations in the Middle East is part of a plot against Muslim mothers.

The wives of ISIS fighters like these will struggle to get pregnant again if they have a Caesarean, according to one cleric who calls the procedure a ‘plot against Muslims’

Sheikh Muhammad ibn Saalih al Uthaymeen has ruled that Muslim mothers shouldn’t need any decadent pain-relieving assistance in the delivery of their babies.

In his ruling published on an Islamic website he says: ‘I would like to take this opportunity to point out a phenomenon that has been mentioned to us, which is that many obstetricians, male and female, in the hospitals are too keen for birth to take place by surgical means, which is known as a Caesarean.

‘I am afraid that this may be a plot against the Muslims, because the more births take place in this manner, the more the skin of the abdomen is weakened and pregnancy becomes more dangerous for the woman, and she becomes unable to get pregnant.’

He adds: ‘Some of the people who work in private hospitals have told me that many women come to the hospitals and their specialists tell them that there is no alternative to a Caesarean, then they go to this private hospital and give birth naturally.’

Leaders of the Islamic State have tried to build a modern health service and have appealed to doctors from all over the world to travel to Syria and Iraq to join their medical teams.

Earlier this year the Islamic State announced the opening of the Faculty of Medicine in Raqqa, in northern Syria, where doctors are trained in just three years….

      ” They hate life, love pain and love suffering”

      Well When they get to Hell they should have no life but plenty of pain and suffering. Sure hope I’m able to see the surprise when they get to hell and find 72 of the devil’s angels waiting to rape them instead of paradise with 72 virgins. Of course I’ll be on the outside looking in.

    Although this technically may result in a few less muslims coming into the world, I couldn’t wish it on my worst enemy if, in fact, she needs a cesarean section. Only muslims could come up with this kind of inhumane stupidity!!!

    • Kathy Brown, Esq. says

      Mar 27, 2015 at 11:09 pm

      You say well RG.

      I worked as a labor and delivery nurse in my youth; when there is a CPD (‘cephalo-pelvic disproportion’, meaning that the baby’s head [‘cephalo’] is too big to pass through the mother’s pelvis [‘pelvic] ), well: Both mother and baby will die.

      And die horribly.

      It’s true that this will result in fewer muslims. But God forbid that the day ever comes when WE are like THEM, to rejoice in suffering and death. God forbid!

      • RG says

        Mar 27, 2015 at 11:40 pm

        Agreed! Although I do not oppose the death penalty in cases of heinous crimes, and I hate the islamic deceivers that are destroying our world, I do nonetheless believe that all men (and women) should have the right to live in the free exercise of their conscience before God – even if that god is a stone or a piece of wood. That’s what Christianity teaches us – that God will ultimately judge. The only line that I draw in the sand is when that “god” (or demon) becomes a threat to me and my family’s existence – and islam most certainly has become a demonic force which threatens the existence of the entire world as we know it!

        • RG says

          Mar 27, 2015 at 11:53 pm

          P.S. I am told that my older brother was a breech baby. I never learned the actual details of my brother’s birth, but I can only imagine my mother required a cesarean. I suppose they could have ruled me out (5 years later) if she had been denied the necessary procedures to save her and the baby!

        • Kathy Brown, Esq. says

          Mar 28, 2015 at 12:22 am

          You are quite, quite right RG.

          What you’re describing-our country in danger, our families, etc.-is the description of ‘just war’. And that we must fight.

          In like manner: The death penalty is, again, a matter of law.

          Both just war, and the death penalty, bear NO resemblance to the muslim hordes killing, killing, killing, 24/7, for the very love of it. When the Judeo-Christian West goes to war, it’s done with regret but with resolve. The muslims? It’s exactly the opposite. That’s because ‘allah’ is SATAN.

          They must be eradicated. There is nothing-absolutely nothing-but that to be done with them. While they draw breath, they create suffering misery and evil.

      • Shane says

        Mar 28, 2015 at 9:28 am

        I do thank God that Muslims kill so many other Muslims, but this treatment of women is despicable and cruel. Why any Western woman would convert to Islam is a mystery to me.

      • John Stefan Obeda says

        Mar 28, 2015 at 8:35 pm

        King David of Israel had it right: “The sorrows of those who run after another god shall multiply. . . ” (Psalm 16 ESV) The painful result of those (including Islamists) who worship false gods is more and more sorrow. And the devil rejoices and his followers keep killing and making life even more painful for even their own pagan people. Blessed are those who learn about the heavenly Father Who sent His Son to be their Saviour. Then they love life and worship the Truth (the Lord Jesus) and they live in joy and peace.

    A woman’s body needs time to mature sexually.
    Maybe there would not be such a great need for Caesarean operations in the first place if they would just stop following Muhammad’s example and just leave those pre-pubescent 9 year old girls alone.

    • Shane says

      Mar 28, 2015 at 9:29 am

      Muslims are busy raping girls and women all over Europe and the gutless liberal leaders do nothing to stop it. I guess these liberal jerks believe that Western women deserve to be raped and brutalized.

    • St. Croix says

      Mar 28, 2015 at 10:41 pm

      You’ve got that right Jay Boo. Some women don’t stop growing until 18 or even 20. Is there any aspect of womanhood not perverted by these devils? And young girls running away to join their ranks? It’s mind-blowing to me that any female would not seek any occasion to escape their ranks, not run towards the tyranny.

      I don’t even know if they shave their legs or even trim the crotch area.

        When the British (many moons ago) were looking to arrest Haj Amin al-Husseini in Jerusalem he escaped from under their noses from al-Aksa, doublebodybagged & wearing a kopdoek {cloth for the head). So … you never know who is inside the doublebodybag and what else he/she has under the bags. Think of suicide vests, etc.

        Re shaving.

        If they are really, really pious muslimahs they’re supposed to depilate every inch of themselves from the neck to the toes, every twenty days.

        Allah doesn’t like armpit hair or pubic hair, seemingly.

        (And not only on women; men, too, though they have to grow lots of chin hair – the beards – are supposed to depilate their *bodies* – arms, legs, armpits, crotch, back, legs, etc – every *forty* days.

        Or so Australian journalist Jacqueline Brooks was told, by a bunch of very devout Hezbollah wives whom she interviewed in a posh hotel in Beirut, sometime in the late 1980s or early 1990s (before 1994, when her book “Nine Parts of Desire”, about Islam and women, was published).

        These particular jihad tarts – the Hezbollah wives – were lounging about en deshabille in their ladies-only quarters, and she had ample opportunity to see that their bodies were, as she put it , “hairless as Barbie dolls”.

        In other words: mature women are required by the sunnah of Islam to mimick a prepubescent girl.

    This is a manifestation of anti-life.
    Sexless Allah- gotta keep them souls coming
    This latest evil from Islam is beyond the pale.
    You don’t need a weather man to know it is a waste of human life.
    Not to Allah, the sub-human sexless vampiric entity that exists invisibly, or else as a permeator through the group mind of the keepers of magical secrets, over in the East, with grins of arrogant confidence that infer that they are superbluffing on a wing and a prayer, or else truly believe that they are the Top Dog Specials.
    Fighting evil with evil- perhaps the presence of evil may thus swell, ask the warlords, is there a way before it becomes Armageddon?
    The Islamic effuse is low-level stuff, and widespread.
    Something higher, concentrated, cohesive, undivided, has got to happen, be created, gathered, straight away, or it looks like civil war.
    The creeping beast will not stop.
    Islam is mad
    Islam needs a shrink

    The reason the women(?) need caesareans is probably due to the fact they are only children.So…if no op,mother and child may die,so where’s the logic in their reasoning? What can you expect from a peoples who worship a moon god,utter idiots.

      I think it’s just that the photo is slightly washed out. It’s dust [dirt] rather than snow.

    Satan goes back a long way before Islam
    In comparison, spiritually, figuratively, his story wise, street gangwise, Allah is a spoilt brat newbie on a permanent narcissistic label, and is in no way as evolved as Satan, according to folklore and maybe even rumour
    And anyway, what’s Satan done that compares in any way to the atrocities in the name of Allah who is with questionable origin?

    • Joseph says

      Mar 29, 2015 at 6:50 pm

      And just who do you think was talking to Mo when he was visited?
      Why do you think that parts of the Kornholeran are taken from the Holy Bible(badly I might add)?
      Why do you think that their book is PURE hate?
      Who do you think wants man’s praise, by force if needed?
      Which book promises Earthly things?
      Which book calls their god “the great deceiver” & “the great destroyer”
      THERE IS MORE, A LOT MORE!!!!
      Satan’s greatest pleasure is to deceive man in disobeying GOD.What better way than to start his own religion.
      The best lie is the one closest to the truth and Jizzslam is a damn good lie.

    End result?
    I wonder
    The result of the end?
    You know there is a natural edge to the expanding spilt drop of ink on the blotting paper
    The Koran was written by men with voices in their heads, they must have had some bad gear in those days, i guess, unless it was something else
    I wonder, cos i don’t know what to think, if this is such a time wherein the surface tension of Islam breaks
    Maybe even too the Allah entity, loosing, in its death throes, all the the evils the minds of men can conjure up

  14. jayell says

    Mar 28, 2015 at 8:06 am

    Let’s see if I can remember some of the more recent islamic idiocies – celebrating birthdays is unislamic and sinful; supporting a football (soccer) team is un Islamic and sinful;……and what else? Now caesarean births are unislamic and sinful! They’re making it up as they go along.

    Everything that is normal and logical has to be opposite to Islam. Voting is unislamic, for example. Democracy is unislamic. Caesarean is unislamic. Polio drops are unislamic. Singing national anthem of any country is unislamic. Mixing with infidels is unislamic. I wonder how they breathe the same air polluted by non-muslims! Isn’t it unislamic?

  16. Lioness says

    Mar 28, 2015 at 10:54 am

    If Caesarean sections are un-Islamic, what about other life-saving western, decadent surgeries, like appendix or gall bladder removal? Surely those were invented in the west to undermine Islam.

    • St. Croix says

    I think the car they’re leaning on must be un-Islamic and the rifles they’re holding un-Islamic. These two items alone were invented after Mo and Alla and MO were invented and Alla hates everything modern and Western. Not to mention the computers, mobile phones and anything invented by Westerners and also modern. My oh my what would Mo and Alla say about that! Naughty muslims. Wanting to live in the 500’s BUT like using modern technology. Stupid hypocrites.

    Well, it may not be as bad as I thought.

    15,000 Syrian Pounds = US$79.39. Can’t imagine walking into obstetrician’s office in the US for less than $80 (without insurance)!

    At least ISIS-care amputations are probably still free, although the anesthesia is likely a surcharge.

    ISIS medicine is probably a lot like the Far Side’s version of equine veterinary medicine.
