The Times calls Abdul Rauf’s violence “Dickensian,” but it is much more likely to emerge from the culture of violence created by the Qur’an and Sunnah. The holy book that commands adherents to “kill them wherever you find them” (Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, 9:5) and calls for disobedient women to be beaten (4:34) can easily create an atmosphere in which those learning it are slapped, punched or kicked for not memorizing it quickly enough.
“Imam jailed for 109 attacks on children in Koran class,” by Gabriella Swerling, The Times, July 3, 2018:
An imam who used “Dickensian”-style teaching methods at a mosque has been jailed for more than 100 attacks on young boys.
Abdul Rauf, 51, slapped, pushed or kicked the boys aged as young as nine while teaching them the Koran at a mosque in Rochdale, Greater Manchester.
The children were too scared to complain of their beatings and the offending was not revealed until one victim told a teacher at his school that he and another boy had been assaulted at the Dar-Ul-Munawar Ghamkol Sharif mosque.
Police were called in October last year and officers seized CCTV of the imam’s classes. They scoured more than 40 hours of tapes and discovered footage of 109 assaults….
St. Manuel II Palailogos says
Muhammad said to beat kids who don’t pray. So, this is just run of the mill Islam.

OK!
Muhammad said to beat kids who don’t pray!
Let’s introduce this method for ALL religions in Europe and America!
Seeing that Liberals think Muhammad is the Greatest, there shouldn’t be any problem of getting Prayer back into the schools.

If a parent sends a child, even for 10 minutes, into a situation with a person like this, what should they expect? That the child will learn goodness? Truth? Be treated well?
No. They should expect that the child will be corrupted by the obvious evil dwelling inside this person.
Parents, parents, parents….sigh. Why…why do you continue sending your innocent children, unable to protect themselves (that’s what PARENTS are for), into a den of vicious wolves to be corrupted by evil?
Because remember – the definition of evil is “the corruption of innocence”.

That is our point of view but keep in mind that Muslims have other moral values. For Muslims a respectable person is one who is very devoted, they do not care if a Muslim is a lazy man, who does not contribute anything to society … the only thing they care about is that a person prays a lot and does presence in the mosque shaking hands with his brothers of faith. If that person has a callus on his forehead from so much praying … much better.

A wonderful product of Islam which turns out barbaric monsters endlessly. melek-ric, I agree with your comment. Muslims, the best of people. Biggest lie ever. They are the worst imaginable people with few exceptions and , no doubt, they’d consider this thing one of their best products, because Islam’s morality is completely upside down. Evil is good, good is evil.. He’d certainly terrify children. He should be flogged within an inch of his life in exactly the way he beat up on children.

the prostration mark(the prayer bump ) described in Qur’an 48:29.
[Zubiba is the mark on the forehead that you get from doing a great deal of Islamic prayer, which entails bringing one’s forehead repeatedly down on the prayer mat or other prayer surface.
The more pronounced the zebibah, And the more pious the muslim, the more depraved he is, and liable to commit criminal acts
anyone notice the bruise on muslim’s forehead signifying a very religious muslim who prays five times a day banging his head in reverence]

Read page 50 of ‘The Little Green Book’ by the famous (infamous) Ayatollah Khomeini.
In yet another section of the book, he will tell you that it is ok to have sex with your wife’s dead body, as long as the body is still warm! Mmmmm ….
There is also a section of advice on how to sexually abuse animals such as sheep, cows, camels and so on. However, he should kill the animal after he has his orgasm. He should not sell the meat to the people in his own village, but selling the meat to a neighbouring village is reasonable, I guess when a wife is not available.
Child Abuse in islam
{A man can have sexual pleasure from a child as young as a baby. However, he should not penetrate vaginally, but sodomising the child is acceptable. If a man does penetrate and damage the child then, he should be responsible for her subsistence all her life. This girl will not count as one of his four permanent wives and the man will not be eligible to marry the girl’s sister… It is better for a girl to marry at such a time when she would begin menstruation at her husband’s house, rather than her father’s home. Any father marrying his daughter so young will have a permanent place in heaven. [“Tahrirolvasyleh”, fourth edition, Qom, Iran, 1990]

Learning Islam says
the whole Muslim mind-set. Beating is not just for women, children, slaves and dhimmis: it’s a part of the very fabric of how Islamic society controls its members. “protecting the abuser” is but entirely consistent with the concept of the Islamic umma. Here is a very chilling modern source http://muttaqun.com/abuse.html.
Bukhari 3:509. Ocba ibn Al-Harith said: “When An-Nuaman or his son was brought in a state of drunkenness, Allah’s Apostle ordered everyone present in the house to beat him. I was one of those who beat him. We beat him with shoes and palm-leaf stalks.”
A mere thump of the type Muhammad and Abu Bakr were wont to give Ayesha did not count as a “beating”. Note that Abu Bakr saw nothing wrong with striking Ayesha after she had married Muhammad, and Muhammad had very little problem with it either.
An-Nasaai. The Prophet never beat any of his wives or servants; in fact, he did not strike any living being with his hand except in the cause of Allah or when the prohibitions of Allah had been violated, and he retaliated on behalf of Allah.
There is a level of violence that counts as real “beating” yet still has certain limits. Muslims proudly cite traditions like the following as evidence of serious compassion and moderation.
Bukhari 3:734. Abu Hurayra said that the Prophet said: “If somebody beats somebody then he should avoid the face.”
The types of rebellion that attract a beating are clearly defined.
Abu Dawud. As-Sabura said: “The Prophet said: Order your children to pray at the age of seven. And beat them if they do not do so by the age of ten.”
Bukhari 883. Nafi said, “Omar’s son used to beat his children for mistakes in diction.”
Beating was a widely-approved method of corporal punishment in the time of Muhammad, according to the hadith. There is no question according to the hadith that Muhammad’s final policy regarding wives and slave girls is that they were to be beaten (or worse). Here is further confirmation that beating was a standard practice,
Beatings approved by Muhammad or at least one companion who became a rightly-guided caliph:
• Beating for not doing prayer:
Narrated As-Saburah: The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: Command a boy to pray when he reaches the age of seven years. When he becomes ten years old, then beat him for prayer. (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book #2, Hadith #0494)
Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-‘As: The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) said: Command your children to pray when they become seven years old, and beat them for it (prayer) when they become ten years old; and arrange their beds (to sleep) separately. (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book #2, Hadith #0495)
• Beating for doing the wrong kind of prayer or wrong timing:
Malik’s Muwatta: Yahya related to me from Malik from Abdullah ibn Dinar from Abdullah ibn Umar that Umar ibn al-Khattab used to say, “Do not intend to do your prayer at either sunrise or sunset, for the horns of Shaytan rise with the rising of the sun and set with its setting.” Umar used to beat people for that kind of prayer. (Book #15, Hadith #15.10.49)
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from as-Sa’ib ibn Yazid that he saw Umar ibn al-Khattab beating al-Munkadir for praying after asr. (Book #15, Hadith #15.10.50)

Child abuse is rife in Islam.
gravenimage says
This, from Islam Q&A, the most widely read Islamic site in English:
“How do we smack children to make them pray?”
https://islamqa.info/en/127233
Note that in citing orthodox Islamic texts that “(lightly)” is added. It is nowhere in the original.
And then Imam chides the pious child abuser for just hitting his child for not praying, and advises him to beat the child if she is negligent with Wudu or otherwise does not “pray properly”.
God, I hate Islam.
Mark Spahn (West Seneca, NY) says
“Note that in citing orthodox Islamic texts that “(lightly)” is added. It is nowhere in the original.”
An original text that is quoted may include information within parentheses. If a parenthetical remark is added by the quoter, the convention is to use brackets, like “[lightly]”.
This link to Shaykh Muhammad Saalih a-Munajjid’s “Advice to the Islam-lorn” website cites seven fatwas (if I counted right). In none of them is the praying (or non-praying) child referred to as a “she”.
The word used here for striking the child is “smack”, which implies non-lethality, and one of the fatwas explicitly says, “It should not be a smack that causes injury, and it should not be a smack in the face for example, or a smack to a lethal site; rather he should be smacked on the shoulder or the hand and the like, which would not cause him to die.”
Isn’t this leniency anti-Islamic? A smart child will conclude that receiving a “smack” is a small price to pay for being free from the time-consuming chore of spreading out a mat and banging his head on it while reciting some jibber-jabber prayer in a foreign language. Instead, the defiant Muslim child will just take his smack and spend his time doing something else, like defiantly engaging in isbaal (rebuckling his knickerbockers below the knee); see

Learning islam says
Allah promotes pedophilia
Quran 65.4 “and those of your women as have passed the age of monthly courses, for them the ‘iddah (prescribed divorce period), if you have doubts (about their periods), is three months, and for those who have no courses [(i.e. They are still immature) their ‘iddah (prescribed period) is three months likewise, except in case of death] . And for those who are pregnant (whether they are divorced or their husbands are dead), their ‘iddah (prescribed period) is until they deliver (their burdens) (give birth) and whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to him, he will make his matter easy for him.”
Sura (65:4) lays down rules for divorce and sets the prescribed period for divorce. It clearly says, Muslim men can marry (and divorce) little girls who have not yet reached menstruation age. This means that Muslim men were allowed to marry baby girls. This is the eternal word of god. This is an eternal law of Allah. All Muslims must believe in this teaching. Otherwise, they are no longer Muslims but apostates of Islam.
Allah incites Muslim Jihadists to war for acquiring sex-slaves as booty
“All married women (are forbidden unto you) save those (captives) whom your right hands possess.” 4:24
You can have sex with slaves women captured in war (with whom you may rape or do whatever you like).
Muhammad established an appalling precedent for abuse of young girls which is continued to be nurtured by the Muslim faithful. For example, Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran gave a fatwa about Quran 65.4:
“A man can marry a girl younger than nine years of age, even if the girl is still a baby being breastfed. A man, however is prohibited from having intercourse with a girl younger than nine, other sexual acts such as foreplay, rubbing, kissing and sodomy is allowed. A man having intercourse with a girl younger than nine years of age has not committed a crime, but only an infraction, if the girl is not permanently damaged. If the girl, however, is permanently damaged, the man must provide for her all her life. But this girl will not count as one of the man’s four permanent wives. He also is not permitted to marry the girl’s sister.”
