UK Muslim stabs girlfriend: mother disapproved of his relationship with non-Muslim

Jun 23, 2016 4:54 pm By Robert Spencer

“Birmingham Crown Court was told that Raja stabbed Ms Queiroz, who was eight months pregnant, after being forced to choose between his conservative Muslim mother’s faith and the ‘love of his life’.”

He could have just broken up with her. Instead, he tried to kill her. He stabbed her 24 times. He lives, of course, in a religious and social environment in which killing is the proper response to a perceived sullying of the family’s honor. He holds to a religion that mandates beating women from whom one disobedience, and killing for all manner of infractions. And so it comes to this, in the marvelous multicultural UK.

Babur Karamat Raja

“Man jailed for stabbing pregnant girlfriend in street,” BBC, June 23, 2016 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

A man who tried to murder his pregnant girlfriend in a “horrifying” street attack has been jailed for 18 years.

Babur Karamat Raja, 41, repeatedly stabbed Natalie Queiroz in Sutton Coldfield town centre on 4 March.

A court heard the 40-year-old and her child were ultimately saved by the intervention of four passers-by.

Raja carried out the attack, his barrister said, because his mother “literally drove him mad” through her disapproval of the relationship.
‘Saved’ by breast implants

Birmingham Crown Court was told that Raja stabbed Ms Queiroz, who was eight months pregnant, after being forced to choose between his conservative Muslim mother’s faith and the “love of his life”.

The court heard that Ms Queiroz’s breast implants “were probably what saved her life” during the frenzied assault.

Prosecuting barrister Benjamin Aina QC also said that had Raja plunged his knife just 2mm further into the abdomen of his helpless victim “it would have killed the (unborn) baby”.

The court heard the child was born unharmed and was doing well.

Jane Humphryes QC said in mitigation that Raja’s family turmoil “tipped him over the edge”, leading to a temporary mental illness or “adjustment disorder”, leaving him with little memory of what he had done.

She said: “His mother had not been happy he was in a relationship with a white woman, and told him he must leave her or she would not be in contact.”

Ms Humphryes added: “This man of impeccable character is driven literally to distraction, forced by his own mother to choose between her and his chosen partner and their unborn baby.”

In a victim impact statement read to the court, Ms Queiroz said: “I am destroyed, I feel deceived and betrayed. I cry every single day.

She said there were “dark days”, adding: “I find it difficult not to be in constant fear.”…

With good reason.

    “Mental illness”? How many times have we heard this nonsense? Too many times!

    I prefer the Truth:

      excellent video —

      Islam itself, if one really follows the example of Muhammad, is a kind of collective mental illness. Muslims who are not very religious are generally sane, to the extent they are not Islamic. When they become orthodox Muslims who know and seek to follow Muhammad’s actions, however, they enter into a kind of deadly insanity.

      Muhammad says, “Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him.”

      He says those words in the most canonical hadith collection, LINK:Sahih al-Bukhari, 9.84.57.

      Much else in the core Islamic texts supports the death penalty for apostasy. All the schools of Islamic law support the death penalty for apostasy. Large, but varying percentages of Muslims globally support the death penalty for apostasy.

      Jun 24, 2016 at 3:45 pm

      This man was crazy on Islam all right, but that is not insane by the legal definition. I hope he spends the rest of his life in prison, and that the child is raised as a Christian and never meets any of his muslim relatives.

        What crossed my mind is that the mother of this child will think that she can change the Grandma’s mindset by saying this is your grandson/daughter, and go and visit her and think that surely Grandma will melt and be all loving etc….we have all seen this happen before….the baby will be left with Grandma for the day. for bonding purposes and Grandma might do something to the child???

    About 3 or so years ago an English girl was attacked and thrown into a canal in similar circumstances. The papers were full of it – “Is this the first white honour killing?” Add to that the national paedophile debacle. These muslims are simply utterly repulsive.

    • mortimer says

      Jun 24, 2016 at 9:41 am

      Honour killing, you say?

      No! It’s THEIR CULTURE!

      You can’t criticize their MISOGYNISTIC CULTURE or their VIGILANTE RELIGION because all religions are basically the same and teach the same things and are equal and who are we to judge human sacrifice?

      Fair play for the ancient Aztec Religion… fair play for human sacrifice cults!

      The obvious solution would appear to section all muslims, then.

    Make it illegal for a Muslim man to impregnate a non-Muslim woman ….. with the penalty being the same as that for rape if he does. Accept her words in testimony unless the Muslim man can produce four female witnesses who saw him have intercourse with the woman.

    • Baconator says

      Jun 24, 2016 at 12:20 am

      More often than not, that sort of impregnation is through RAPE. So it is illegal anyway.

      • Marty says

        Jun 24, 2016 at 5:28 am

        As so many cases have shown, muslim men can rape British women & children
        with impunity over decades.
        In Rotherham alone well over 1,400 girls were raped & prostituted, but barely a dozen men were prosecuted – & this after at least 15 years of the authorities pretending it was not happening.
        In the UK being branded “racist” or “islamophobic” is very serious.
        One English man was arrested in Rotherham for “hate speech” when he abused a gang
        of mohammedans who had his drunken 16 year old daughter alone with them in a slummy house.

    Robert Spencer’s perceptive comment: “He lives, of course, in a religious and social environment in which KILLING is the PROPER RESPONSE to a perceived sullying of the family’s HONOR. He holds to a religion that mandates BEATING women from whom one expects disobedience, and KILLING for all manner of infractions.”

    K.4.34 says “…but if they (women) return to obedience, seek not against them means (to punish them further).

    Ms Queiroz did not want to be a Muslim, so honor was to be restored by the SHEDDING OF BLOOD.

    In this way, we see that Muslims believe in human sacrifice.

    She actually had *chosen* to be with this creep? She was his *girlfriend* long enough to have a baby and now she feels *betrayed* and afraid.

    She may be the one who needs a psychologist to help her understand what a rotten idea she had to have had anything to do with him in the first place.
    His eyes are the eyes of a terrorist. His attorney was making stuff up. Thankfully, if he stays in prison the entire sentence, the baby won’t have to be around him.

    UK Muslim stabs girlfriend: mother disapproved of his relationship with non-Muslim
    ………………………..

    Thank God Natalie Queiroz and her baby survived! Kudos to the passers-by who intervened. I’m sure Ms. Queiroz is shaken and heartbroken–but at least she learned who this creep really was before he could start corrupting her child.

    I’m sure we can look for much, much more of this.

    • dumbledoresarmy says

      Jun 23, 2016 at 7:33 pm

      Ms Queiroz – whose surname and first name suggest that she is of either Portuguese or Brazilian Catholic background – should get herself and baby down to the nearest Catholic church she can find, post haste. And she should have that baby baptised, and try to find some serious practising Catholic godparents for it, and make sure it is fully and carefully instructed and enculturated within the Catholic Christian community.

      Her best ‘revenge’ upon her murderous Muslim ex is to affirm and practise her non-Islamic culture and faith and to bring up the baby within that culture and faith. I would also encourage her to find out about *non-Islamic* ancestral Indian culture and history, and teach her baby *that*. She could tell him or her about the heroism of people like the great warrior and leader Shivaji who fought against the Muslim invaders and imperialists. Raise the baby as a proud and free non-Islamic Indo-Briton. And then the long-ago non-Islamic forebears of Babur Karamat Raja would be rejoicing that, at long long last, their family line had emerged out of the darkness and emptiness of Islam, back up into the light.

    RoP calls it a faith based killing, Robert Spencer says “UK Muslim stabs girlfriend” but there is no indication of any Muslim involvement in the BBC report which both quote.

    Raja is a Hindu name and the mother’s objection was racial not religious since she didn’t want her son marrying a white woman.

    What have I missed?

    • ECAW says

      Jun 24, 2016 at 1:59 am

      Oh bollocks! Missed this bit:

      “Birmingham Crown Court was told that Raja stabbed Ms Queiroz, who was eight months pregnant, after being forced to choose between his conservative Muslim mother’s faith and the “love of his life”.

      I blame it on the temporary intoxication of learning of our escape from Europe!

    Cogito ergo sum, June 23, 5:17pm,

    I love your comment. Give em a taste of their own laws. I always get good chuckle when I read how King Charles 1 of Spain in 1526 declared the forced conversion of Muslims to be legal: “After all”, he said, “they had a choice. They could have chosen death”. After 800 years of Muslim oppression, the Christians finally realized that the Muslims only respect Muslim practices!!!

  16. citycat says

    Jun 24, 2016 at 4:12 am

    Politics not my bag man, but just a thought.
    This sort of crime by UK Muslims may be lessened soon, now that Engeland is leaving the EU, maybe France next, maybe another and another and another, making a community of friends that help each other out, and no longer suffer the constraints of the EU, and therefore also sort the restraints of YKW.
    Dream on citycat dream on. Been a long night, goodnight.

    I was shocked to see the Emirate of Birmingham vote Leave in yesterday’s Brexit referendum. Now, this young Moslem guy made a big mistake going for an Infidel girlfriend. A one night stand or a rape woulda been legit, but a kuffar girlfriend was over the top. I wonder if this Infidel girlfriend stabber voted Leave.

    It looks like all Muslim killings around the world are made by sick people with some mental illness, well – maybe so… Would be better if Trump would build a 10 meter high wall around these crazy muslim countries as we in the west do not need Islam and Sharia… Off course there are good and peace full muslim people that respect us but you never know what they do keep in their minds…

    As I understand muslim ideology , peace will come on earth when every non -muslim will have been killed . So , be patient, Mr . Spencer , we are getting near every day . That’s is the meaning of Islam , religion of peace.

    For love , well, I think the muslim boyfriend tried to be compassionate with his ex-girlfriend . By stabbing her , he try to make her acting no more as an infidel and so be sinful . When you stop to be an infidel , you stop to do sins. So after that , it gives the girlfriend a chance to go , one day , to Paradise. Otherwise , in the wrong way , the christian way , she never could make it , you see. After all, this man was just helping every ont to make the earth a better place to live , every one being muzzllim and help everyone to win Allah ‘s Paradise. It is a question of view point .

      Carmel,
      I believe Islamic theology says peace will come when Islamic law rules (not when every non-Muslim is dead). Thus Islamic theology divides the world into Dar-al-Islam (the land of submission), and Dar-al-Harb (the land of war). Christians and Jews, and sometimes other religious groups as well, can live in the land of submission, provided they accept status as inferiors under Islamic law. Inferior status as Muhammad established it is so onerous that non-Muslims gradually convert to Islam. Islamic law thus means slow-motion forced conversion. In theory, conversion under threat of death is not permitted in Islam, yet the earliest Muslim biography of Muhammad shows him not intervening when a Muslim threatens to cut off a non-Muslim’s head if he does not immediately convert to Islam.

      quotingislam.blogspot.com/2011/06/muhammad-permitted-threat-of-beheading.html

      Islamic theology also affirms that judgment day will not come until Muslims will fight with Jews and kill them, and the very trees and stones will call out to Muslims, “O Muslim, there is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him.” See:

      http://quotingislam.blogspot.com/2011/06/muhammad-says-that-one-day-very-trees.html

    I’m starting to see mothers and women may have more influence in Islam than I first thought .

    At once , Muhammad had lost his first wife, his mother , his father, his grand father and there was not too much people around him to bring him financial support as he used to have with Khadija and Muhammad wealthy family .

    So , wife of the day , suggest to Muhammad he should look over the idea of marying the daughter of his best supporter,his first convert , first convert of all times to islam : Abu Bak’r. This man was rich so in difficult times, he would help his dear friend, the Messanger of Allah .

    Muhammad went over the idea for a couple of days and lucky enough received a message from Allah to marry Aicha , 6 years old at the time . Since Abu Bak’r couldn,t say no to Allah’s prophet , he gave him his daughter.

    Muhammad did it but on a suggestion of his wife. Isn’t marvelous ? Islam is the true religions, Allah is ….

  22. eduardo odraude says

    Jun 24, 2016 at 10:28 am

    Muhammad permits a threat of beheading to force a conversion to Islam

    On page 547 (814 in the Arabic) of the earliest Muslim biography of Muhammad:

    [Muhammad] said: “Woe to you Abu Sufyan, isn’t it time that you recognize that I am God’s apostle?” [Sufyan] answered, “As to that I still have some doubt.” [Ibn Abbas] said to [Sufyan], “Submit and testify that there is no God but Allah and that Muhammad is the apostle of God before you lose your head,” so [Sufyan] did so.

  23. Carolyne says

    Jun 24, 2016 at 10:36 am

    Sure. “Impeccable character” for a Muslim, maybe. That’s what they do. That’s who they are.
    Since Britain will no longer be a member of the EU, maybe they can get out from under the thumb of those old wizened gnomes in Brussels and made decisions, such as deporting criminal Muslims, for the good of their own country.

    Ms. Queiroz (I don,t think she to be descendant of Eca de Queiroz)instead of feeling destroyed, deceived and betrayed should feel now rebuilded and elated for getting rid of such a monster and safe and sound
    from his claws. There are eyes who fell in love with sleeps

  25. Mark says

    Jun 25, 2016 at 9:23 pm

    Evil is a choice, not a mental illness.

    Muslims in choosing islam choose evil – they of course call it holy.
