Nigeria: Imam to marry 14-year-old girl he raped and impregnated

Mar 24, 2018 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Of course, this is not happening only Nigeria. Raping young girls is a common practice in many Muslim countries. Often it is considered an honorable gesture and results in the addition of the victim to the rapist’s harem. In Malaysia, a Muslim MP stated that even though rape is a crime, the rapist and the victim should both be “given a second chance to turn a new leaf” and that the victim “will have a husband at least.”

Throughout the Middle East, young girls are considered desirable “and men are able to satisfy their lusts legally through child marriages…..Cases of girls dying during childbirth are not unusual…. In another case, a 12-year-old girl was married to an 80-year-old man in Saudi Arabia.”

Turkey’s Directorate of Religious Affairs has also stated that marriage under Islamic law is permissible at the time of adolescence, which could be at the age of nine for girls.

Young girls in Islamic countries who are raped are often considered to be dirty, defiled and a dishonour to their families, leading sometimes to their being honour-killed by their own families.

Given these common realities about how females are treated in Islam, it becomes clearer that 14-year-old Fateemah Habeeb — despite her life being destroyed by her rapist — will be viewed by many of her coreligionists as fortunate, and the rapist imam will be viewed as honourable in marrying her.

Meantime, sanctimonious Westerners proclaim how insensitive it is to use the term “barbaric cultural practices” in referring to practices that are completely unacceptable in nations that respect human rights — such as child marriage, forced marriage, FGM, honour killing, rape, etc. Shame on them.

“Imam who allegedly impregnated 14-year-old girl plans to marry her,” by Simbiat Ayoola, Nigeria News, March 21, 2018:

According to a young humanitarian identified as Fateemah Habeeb, a 14-year-old girl was defiled by an Imam who is over 50 years old.

She explained that the Imam in question had bragged about defiling the girl with courage that nothing was going to happen to him. Habeeb who is an advocate for young Nigerian girls living in the North stated that she had decided to talk to the girl’s parents and bring justice to the Imam.

She revealed that the mother of the victim had been willing to get justice.

However, after the humanitarian called on people to help bring the case to the right people, she was told that the 14-year-old girl would be married off to the man.

She explained that the girl’s parents who said they no longer needed her help were afraid because their daughter was pregnant and they wanted to avoid gossip.

According to Habeeb, she tried everything in her power to help the family and explain that what they were doing was a crime.

The humanitarian, however, expressed her desire to continue to help the family and the 14-year-old girl. She also added that she would do everything in her power to bring justice for the Imam…..

    Of course, what is overlooked entirely is the human rights of the 14-year-old girl. This is the hideousness of Islam. The girl is a human sacrifice. Her only salvation will be if she is able to seek refugee status and flee the country.

    Another superb article by Christine Douglass-Williams who rightly calls out Jihadi Justin Trudeau for sanctimoniously telling we should not say ‘BARBARIC’, even when something like FORCED CHILD MARRIAGE is actually clearly ‘BARBARIC’.

    Rape followed by forced child marriage = BARBARIC.

      The typical barbarians, the northern tribes, would not allow this. They would likely kill the rapist. Barbarians usually had a sense of honor that Islam doesn’t have.

    And another life is ruined before it has had its chance. And the vile, filthy, putrid imam will continue business as usual, hiding behind the Koran. Perhaps he’s the one descended from apes and pigs.

    Kudos to the young humanitarian Fateemah.

    QUESTION FOR CHRISTINE (& ROBERT),

    VERY SINCERELY, HOW DO YOU CONTINUE YOUR BRILLIANT, DESPERATELY-VITAL WORK WITHOUT IT’S HIDEOUS, DEMONIC SUBJECT MATTER JUST EATING YOU ALIVE WITH HEARTBREAK, ANGER, DESPAIR, FURY, HOPELESSNESS, OR SUFFOCATING SADNESS? THOSE ARE MY OWN PERSONAL ROLLERCOASTER EMOTIONS. I FIND I’M ALMOST DROWNING IN DEVASTATION BETWEEN THIS COUNTRY’S CONTINUED DOWNWARD SPIRAL & THE INCREASING PROBLEMS WITH ISLAM IN OUR OWN COUNTRY. HOW DO YOU COPE & NOT LOSE HOPE? IT’S QUITE REMARKABLE… AS ARE YOU & THE SUPERIOR QUALITY OF THE WORK YOU DO!
    THANK YOU, CHRISTINE & ROBERT!

      Agree with GI. Facing evil constantly is a risk. You can tend to become like it – bitter.

      I’m hoping that both of these fine crusaders for freedom and truth expose themselves to not only the darkness, but also the light.

      Mastering the subject doesn’t hurt too. Once it is understood and defeated in your own mind, more than half the battle is won. Mrs Douglass-Williams and Mr Spencer have done that i believe. Now they strive to spread the truth.

      The risk for soldiers never goes away however, and all that fight against tyranny need our prayers and other support.

        There is a beautiful prayer in Jewish tradition. I came across an English translation in Chaim Potok’s novel “My Name is Asher Lev”.

        it is from the ‘Krias Shema” and it runs like this – “In the Name of the Lord, the G-d of Israel: May Michael be at my right hand, Gabriel at my left, before me, Raphael, behind me, Uriel, and above my head the divine presence of G-d, Amen and Amen”.

        Transpose that into the third person and pray it on behalf of Robert Spencer and all others who are out there on the front lines, whether they be Christian, Jewish, atheist or anything else. “Michael be at his (Robert’s) right hand, Gabriel at his left…”.

          Was always partial to an Aaronic blessing:

          “The Lord bless you and keep you;
          the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you;
          the Lord lift up his face upon you….and give you peace.”

          May the Lord also bless all those who trust in Him, and bring into His house all those who do not.

          LeftisruiningCanada and Dumbledore’s Army, I think the way you avoid becoming bitter is to remember not just the horrors you are fighting against, but all the truly wonderful things you are fighting *for*.

          Enjoying and savoring and really appreciating those things helps, too. I always try to remember what I am grateful for.

          Very true GI. A little light goes a long way. Know what you fight for, and fight, but also know that the war is not yours to win. It is already won.

          And it is a narrow path for sure, for is it not all too easy to find oneself saying ” I thank thee, (Lord), that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.”?

    The poor girl in the above pic looks like a hostage, you can see it in her eyes. Too often kids in islamic culture, especially girls, are treated like property to be sexually exploited and enslaved. This is no longer some far away problem that we can ignore, islam is thriving in our own back yard. Reliable news sources say that possibly a million children in Britain have been exploited by sex abuse gangs, and we know who’s doing most if not all of it. And this is how it’s getting in the whole of Europe, muslims raping our kids, our culture, and our resources to the point of ruin. Wasn’t it the ancient god Moloch that certain people sacrificed their kids to? That’s what’s happening today in Britain and throughout Europe, our children are getting sacrificed to satiate islam’s devil god. Our ruling elite are so afraid of offending this demon and his worshipers they have decided our kids are worth far less. I’ve said it before but it bears repeating, when a nation betrays their own children like this then they are doomed. You can not sink any lower than forsaking your own kids to sexual debasement and slavery. FGM, forced marriages, and child rape, are becoming an accepted practice in the West because islam and their leftist allies have deemed it so. And who goes to jail or fined for all this, the rapists and their western allies? NO, we do, those who dare to speak against it. Britain and much of Europe is going totalitarian for islam’s subversive intentions and evil practices. This is a war, and our children are its biggest casualties.

    This is a national crisis for practically every western nation!

    Stop muslim immigration!

    Muslims are the ones causing this crime epidemic and terrorizing innocent people. They are the ones raping our kids and culture for their politically motivated religion. We have a right to defend against a political and societal takeover from any kind of hostile force. Anyone that aids islamic jihad, whether it be violent or cultural, is an enemy of the state, plain and simple. At a minimum we must remove them from power, even though they deserve far worse.

    I would really like to know the name of the clown who first published the idea that all cultures are the same (probably an anthropologist or a clique of them). This “meme” (i.e. intellectual fad or craze) is polluting our society. No one questions it, no one brings evidence that it’s true or false. The liberals take it as an article of faith. It’s just a superstition, not a reality.

    I want the originators of this meme named and hung in effigy and disgraced for all history.

    It should be noted that the Nigerian Constitution does not establish a minimum age of marriage. The Child Rights Act, which was passed in 2003, sets the age of marriage at 18 years-old. However, only 23 of Nigeria’s 36 states have adopted this act. As a result, in some areas of the country the minimum age of marriage can be as low as 12 years-old.

    Imams are the enforcers of sharia; they overtly chose Islam as their vehicle to control people and act out their perverted inclinations. Imams are the SS of Islam, the higher up their hierarchy the more criminal and sinister. They have chosen to commit global cultural destruction, genocide, mass rape and cause economic catastrophe. Their time is ticking down, they will not win; it is only a question of how much destruction and death they will wrought before they are tried and convicted in a world court specially set up for them, a Nuremberg trial of Islamofascism.

    Islam, The Religion of peace allows a man to have sex with a child, how wonderful.

    The Supreme Leader in Iran, Khomeini, says “I spit on the soul of any man who says Islam is a religion of peace. Khomeini, the commander in chief, is the only one who can declare war. He appoints the judiciary, is the head of state radio and TV, and is the Supreme commander over the ISLAMIC, revolutionary guard. Khomeini appoints 6 of the 12 council of Guardians–the group that oversees the activities of Parliament.

    Power over 2,000 clerics, who are more powerful in some respects over the President’s Ministers

    Islam IS a religion. ha ha ha ha ha

    A cult of filthy men is more like it.

    If Justine does not think Islam is barbaric perhaps he should go live in an Islamic country and stop trying to Islamize Canada. Go and watch your children laugh and play outside like normal children.

      It would be better for all concerned if Justine were to stay in perpetuity on his sugar Khan’s island serving him drinks and whatever else Khan daddy wants.

      The rest of us can get along with preserving Canada as it should be.
