Ahmed Bin Saad Al Qarni is reflecting standard Islamic belief. This is the rationale behind the wearing of the hijab: it is the woman’s responsibility, and solely her responsibility, to make sure that men are not tempted. The Qur’an says: “O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves of their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.” (33:59) The implication there is that if women do not cover themselves adequately with their outer garments, they may be abused, and that such abuse would be justified.
“Saudi preacher says women are to blame for rape as they are ‘the cause of harassment and adultery,'” by Darren Boyle, MailOnline, October 19, 2017 (thanks to Rowan):
A hard-line Saudi preacher has claimed women are to blame for their own rapes and are the ’cause of harassment and adultery’.
Ahmed Bin Saad Al Qarni delivered his abhorrent sermon on Twitter where he claimed ‘women instigate men to rape and assault them’.
In one video he posted online, Al Qarni claimed ‘look at the woman in this video, she made the men go mad. Don’t blame men.’
A controversial Saudi cleric has claimed women are to blame for rape and are committing adultery if they leave their homes while wearing perfume or even make up
According to StepFeed.com, the cleric said: ‘If he rapes her, she’ll come home crying over her dignity. I swear to God, women are the cause of harassment and adultery. Look at the woman in this video, she’s the one who stopped the man driving the vehicle, and she’s the one who got into the car with him.’
He continued: ‘A woman who leaves her house wearing make-up and perfume is an adulteress. A good woman who’s wearing a kitchen apron will never leave her house looking like that. Don’t blame men.’…

“O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves of their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.” Translated into modern “speak” it actually should read: “It is very important for the safety and well being of any female, from birth until death to keep them completely covered and wrapped in heavy black canvas. All muslim males are sex deviates, perverts and callous, cruel malicious rape artists who have no desire to even remotely try to control their deviant sexual urges.”
Their leader muhammud commands them to do so, which of course perfectly suits these scumbags.
Kessler says
But as you all know, wearing a hijab is all about individual liberty and freedom of choice. There is absolutely no element of oppression and fear – anyone suggesting that is a right-wing, islamophobic bigot.
Women power, yeah!!!!
Doh….
Jaladhi says
Of course this the age old Muslim canard- women encourage men to rape them! What bogus fake news that Muslims have peddled for last 1400 years. And that is why Muslim men want to keep Muslim women under wraps or tents!
The truth is Muslims have no concept of what is right and what wrong and can’t distinguish between good and evil. In fact what normal human being consider evil Muslims accept is good – rape and murder are considered good in Muslim vocabulary!
Jen says
The truth is Muslims have no concept of what is right and what wrong and can’t distinguish between good and evil.
That’s right because they don’t believe in the Golden Rule.
boakai ngombu says
they don’t believe the One Righteous God. instead their mind is twisted by the allah god of islam (unknowable; the best of all deceivers) which causes them to be devoid of conscience and the knowledge of good and evil
Ursus Arctos says
Sure they believe in The Golden Rule… he who has the gold makes the rules!
Angry Aussie says
This cleric is nor alone. There are a great many Facebook pages devoted to discussulion between Muslins and ex Muslims. The Muslim men for the most part reallt believe exactly what this cleric teaches. Ex Muslims however are the most vocal about the lunacy of Islam.
Egon Speneder says
The letter of the apostle James (in the Christian Bible) touches on the area of “lust” – “…each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. Then when lust is conceived, it gives birth to sin, and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death”! (James 1:14,15)
Obviously this fool hasn’t read the Christian Bible, nor is he aware that he himself has a depraved nature, which the Quran likes to exploit and have you kill for Allah’s sake. Take no responsibility for yourself but just let your sinful nature express itself in debauchery mayhem and murder just like that psychopathic pedophile that started the movement 1400 years ago!
religionofpeace says
Lefties, Pope , Dalai Lama will say the Muslim cleric is not true Muslim.
A wonderful world is kafir have the right to decide who is ‘true’ Muslim.
Jen says
I would love to hear what feminists or college students or the liberal left would say in response to this idiot’s statements. I bet they would say nothing…crickets…because they’re all on the same side. All united in an effort to destroy Western Civilization.
This guy needs his as* kicked.
Guest says
Here is the opinion of one: he is a pig who doesn’t care about women and probably raped a few for fun. I hope he dies

They rape children too, may all these Muslims die anyone else who does the same thing.

Agreed. Just wondering, considering he is the best or smartest among his crowd as to be elevated to a cleric, what adjective might describe the others?

”Al Qarni claimed ‘look at the woman in this video, she made the men go mad.”-
I guess that explains why a substantial proportion of of those who are employed in the political business of importing refugees, preferable Muslims, to the West are women – at least it is so in my part of the world. Fewer and fewer men go mad about women here and turn instead towards their own sex. If women don’t attract sufficient attention from European men anymore, maybe the women will settle for some unpleasant attention from other parts of the world? Or maybe they by their schemes want to provoke their own countrymen to jealousy?
Just a hunch since I can’t prove my theory, so please don’t verbally lynch me.

Oh, God–once again, Benedict is bizarrely blaming all of Western immigration policy on women, and claiming that these foolish policies are being pursued because women *want to be raped*. Just sick.

6 months in jail and 200 lashes for being alone with a man
http://anonhq.com/19-year-old-gang-rape-victim-received-200-lashes-6-months-jail-saudi-arabia/
A 19-year-old gang rape victim was sentenced to 200 lashes and to six months in jail for the crime of indecency and speaking to the press.
Saudi Arabia defended a controversial verdict sentencing a 19-year-old gang rape victim to 200 lashes and six months in jail. The Shi’ite Muslim woman had initially been sentenced to 90 lashes after being convicted of violating Saudi Arabia’s rigid Islamic Sharia law on segregation of the sexes.
The decision handed down by the Saudi General Court more than doubled her sentence last week. The court also roughly doubled the prison sentences for the seven men convicted of raping her, Saudi media said.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Oy, what a nightmarish concept of justice. Lord keep them.
gravenimage says
At least they didn’t stone the rape victim to death. I guess Saudi Arabia really is becoming more “moderate”…
God, I hate Islam.
MFritz says
And most Saudi women will happily agree with him. Without the consent of the female muslims islam as an ideology would have been DEAD for a VERY LONG TIME.
It would be a curious footnote in history books such as the Ba’al cult. Once BETTER religions had developed – more suitable for BOTH sexes – it became utterly obsolete.
Sarah says
Exactly, MFritz. I get so frustrated when I see Saudi women meekly complain about driving rights or some such.
None of that nonsense will ever change while that lot keep propping up the cesspool religion that they love so much. Get with the program and dump it.
Women make up half the goddamn population over there! I don’t care that the men are physically stronger than the women – how long do they think the whole thing will last if the women unite, fight back and flat out refuse to bow to these rules anymore?
They keep meekly asking their men to lift some of the rules of their subservience from them. They throw tantrums over what they say are their rights. And expect their men to, what? Suddenly agree?
FREAKING DISCARD THE DAMN RULES YOURSELVES. FIGHT FOR IT. TAKE IT AND OWN IT. The Arab world will fall apart overnight without the women of the population there to cook, clean, spread their legs, raise the kids and obediently scuttle around at the bidding of their male owners.

What do you expect from this 7th century death cult? Misogyny is it’s middle name. That’s how Muslims role. Men call the shots in Islam, and don’t you EVER forget it, ladies.
Benedict says
I don’t know where you live TFK, but in my part of the world it is definitely women who call the shots. Women have as a minimum become half men and a man three quarters of a woman. Is that preferable, you think?
One thing is for sure it: it it not such an emasculated culture that will kick the repulsive religion and political ideology called Islam out of Europe.
gravenimage says
Oh, good God–the idea that if you don’t want to be raped by Muslim men that this makes you “half men” is absurd.
And you ask whether circumstances in the West today are preferable to the horror of life under Islam–yes, *it is*.
Whatever problems the West has–and there are many, including fake “feminism”–it is still *much* better than Islam.
That you don’t think it is says little for your having any will to defend against a Muslim takeover.
LeftisruiningCanada says
A big problem in this regard is the complete lack of restraint against the sinful nature of men in Islam. Everything restrictive is directed towards the women. Nothing is ever the mans fault. Christ teaches that men and women should take care to respect each other in the way that the other most needs. Women are counciled to be modest and respectful in dress and behavior, so as not to shame themselves and stumble men into sinning, but nowhere, NOWHERE, is the mans responsibility to control himself diminished under any circumstances.
But with many Muslims all you hear are the little-boy like cries of “she made me do it”. Talk about big babies. Too bad these big babies have adult bodies with which they can rape, kill etc…..
George says
“Hard line”? You aren’t working for a masters in understatement now, Robert?
Wellington says
Just as no informed black should ever be a Muslim, considering Islam’s far more horrific role in black African slavery than that of the West’s (and the West, to its credit, realized what a wrong it was and took sundry measures to end it as well as profusely apologizing for it, contra the Islamic world, which to this very day has not openly acknowledged the great wrong black slavery, or any slavery, has been and thus has NEVER apologized for its role in the black slave trade, indeed a “trade” that still continues in the Islamic world to this very day in countries like Mauritania and Sudan), so should no woman voluntarily be a Muslim. Show me a black or a a female who, willingly and without coercion, is a Muslim and I will show you a fool of the first order. And a black female Muslim, willingly so, is a fool of the first order and then some.
Islam is ready made for men (and especially white men) who refuse to grow up. It is a religion rooted in profound (though often well disguised) misogyny, as testified to by this Saudi Arabian cleric. For that matter, as testified to by Muslims through the centuries, going the whole way back to Islam’s exceedingly warped founder, a fraud of the first order, who himself said that he had visited Hell and most of the dwellers there were women (Bukhari Hadith 3241) and who owned black slaves aplenty and referred to blacks by many derogatory names (e.g., “raisinheads——Bukhari Hadith 1:662). Mohammed also never had a single sexual desire denied him by Allah (how convenient), including for his own daughter-in-law, Zaynab, and nine-year old Aisha. This horrible miscreant of the sixth and seventh century also indicated on many occasions that women who do not cover themselves properly are therefore, in effect, sluts and deserving of rape. You can find such an “assessment” in numerous Islamic texts, for instance Sura 33:59 of the Koran which implicitly allows the rape of women who do not cover themselves properly. (OMG, this religion is so sick and I am so sick of ignoramuses and the outright malevolent making excuses for this bastardized excuse of a religion.)
All Muslims, no exception, are confused human beings, but blacks and women who, without coercion, embrace Islam are extra confused human beings. No exception to this rule. Not one damn one and I will take on anyone averring otherwise. I assert no one can refute me in this regard. Not one damn person. And as for that Saudi cleric who asserted the malevolent nonsense that he did about rape, if only Western women overwhelmingly would realize this is normative for Islam. And it has been for some 1400 years now——with no end in sight to this evil. So, you can see why, for this reason alone (and there are so many others) I despise Islam. You bet I do. Forever.
Lydia says
Oh sure, just for our mere existence, it’s all our fault that women are raped by sinful carnal men who can’t control their lusty desires and animal passions! So in their world, don’t be surprised if you are raped just for being born a woman, and not too much after being born from what many are saying!
More excuses for evil is all this is!
Wellington says
Evil and Islam, as I certainly sense you already know, Lydia, have much in common. Much.

The trend for western men is MGTOW (men going their own way). It is an abandonment of the heterosexual norm of a man and woman in marriage, because the Sacrament of Marriage has given way to casual sexual liasons with no intent to create life, just have sexual pleasure. This has emasculated western men into hedonists, and made western women insufferable feminists, demanding equality in all areas of life, even on the battlefield. It has fatally weakened western society because it is destroying the family unit, the most elemental unit laying the foundation for a society.
A culture which kills its own future is not a culture at all, save, as Pope John Paul II stated, the Culture of Death. Pray the Rosary, if you know what’s good for you. And, you don’t.

It’s the silence of the western world’s feminists.
The silence of the lambs as they await slaughter on the altar of political correctness.

Why the heck can’t we get some of these clerics and a bunch of feminazis in the same room.
Islam would be nuked the next day. (Sarc cause anybody who hasn’t figured Islam out by now, is either never going to, or too dang spineless to.)
Lee says
It’s like blaming someone for being robbed because they left their possessions unattended.
I recall an anecdote being told of a thief who stole Einstein’s wallet when he left a cab and was entering a hotel.
Lee says
People started blaming the cab driver, the bellboy and Einstein himself for being careless which moved the physicist to make a comment on the situation ” Yes, we all are guilty except for the thief who actually stole my wallet ”
The story probably never happened but it shows the erroneous pattern of thinking identical with that of the cleric’s.
Rob says
Guess these “clerics” never stopped to think that when they say that all sexually abused women are responsible for that abuse they are ALSO saying that all men are testosterone-high, sex-mad, slavering beasts who have absolutely no control over their animalistic selves, saved only by all women being covered in tents! That doesn’t say much for the morals or enlightenment of the “cleric’s” society.
Karen says
Qasim Rashid wrote a recent article claiming that Islam may well be the solution to domestic violence the world has been seeking. He very exquisitely contorts Koran 4:34 from a verse instructing men to beat their wives into a 7th-century therapy session in anger management (his wording.)
To solidify his argument, he uses the usual tactic of language barrier, making the Koran mean whatever he wants it to mean. Says Qasim, “disobedient women” are not simply willful but are insidious destroyers of hearth and home, this full meaning only being evident via “Arabic lexicon”. Similarly, the word often translated as “chastise” may either mean “strike” or “heal”; so he decides it means “heal” based on Mohammad’s awesome example of, uh, non-violence. (Sorry, it’s well documented that he struck Aisha at least once, causing her pain.)
So, if language is our main barrier to implementing this solution, what would Qasim say about the many Arabic-speaking Imans who cite the Koran as approval for beatings that don’t leave marks or entitled, primitive brutes who rape their wives?
Susette says
Muslim men, especially in Saudi Arabia, are the weakest of all species. Their arrogance, misogyny, superiority and patriarchy are mere disguises for their real fear of losing their perceived power. They walk around in dresses, stink to high heaven, and are fat and ugly. No woman wants to have sex with them so they will find any reason to rape…including when women stand by a bottle of extra-VIRGIN olive oil. This would all be so humorous, if it weren’t so sadly true.
