I had a long, on again, off again twitter conversation with a well-educated, Muslim woman in Djakarta who told me she was not familiar with FGM.
There is so much denial by Muslims in modern, moderate Malaysia and Indonesia.

That Rebel idiot failed to note that the judge called FGM a despicable act, and that In no way, shape or form did he defer to Muslim sensitivities. He ruled that FGM has nothing to do with Interstate Commerce; making Interstate Commerce laws unconstitutional in that regard. And let’s be honest–are there any states that don’t have chi!d abuse laws on the books? That Rebel guy is engaged in telling the same kind of half truths that Muslims do. Want to blame someone? Blame the clueless prozecution.

“U.S. District Judge Bernard Friedman said Tuesday that Congress lacks the authority to outlaw the procedure, and insisted only states can make such a decision, the Detroit Free Press reports.”
“As despicable as [FGM] may be,” Friedman said, Congress “overstepped its bounds” by banning the practice.”

Law banning female genital mutilation ruled unconstitutional
U.S. District Judge Bernard Friedman ruled that Congress had no authority to enact a law that criminalizes female genital mutilation (FGM). “As despicable as [FGM] may be… [Congress] overstepped its bounds” by banning the procedure, the judge said.
—————
“But on Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Bernard Friedman found the federal ban unconstitutional, ruling that, among other reasons, female genital mutilation is a “local criminal activity” that must be regulated by the states, not Congress.
“There is nothing commercial or economic about FGM,” Friedman said.
Friedman said the government failed to show that the procedure is a commercial activity or interstate market that would be subject to federal law, such as the markets for illegal drugs and pornography
Friedman also rebutted the government’s suggestion that variances in state laws mean that those seeking female genital mutilation can “travel to refuge states where the practice is not prohibited.”
“No state offers refuge to those who harm children,” Friedman responded. He also noted that 27 states have passed laws that criminalize female genital mutilation. Moreover,since the procedure involves unlawful touching and penetration, it could also be prosecuted as criminal sexual conduct, the judge wrote..
————-
“For Friedman, a Reagan-appointee, the dismissals on the charges of FGM came down to the issue of federalism. In his opinion, Friedman wrote that “as despicable as this practice may be,” FGM is a crime that should fall under the jurisdiction of states ― not the federal government. He found that Congress acted unconstitutionally when it passed a federal law criminalizing FGM in 1996.
————–
“DETROIT — A federal judge dismissed some charges Tuesday against eight people — including two doctors — in the genital mutilation of nine girls at a suburban Detroit clinic, finding it’s up to states rather than Congress to regulate the practice.”
Just a Concerned Citizen says
And perhaps she even believes that she is telling the truth. As far as she and many (perhaps even the majority of) other women who have undergone the cutting are concerned, it wasn’t a “mutilation,” and it never crossed her nor their mind that any harm had been done to them.
Very few people who have experienced forced genital cutting as infants or children are able to process that the people who were supposed to have their best interests at heart screwed them and so many others over in the name of culture, religion and/or conformity.
PRCS says
Agree mostly. I did come away the impression, though, that she really was just in denial.
overman says
Everytime the subject of FGM comes up there’s always the great denial that it has anything to do with islam. Recently, on an episode of ‘The Good Doctor’ a female surgeon said no religion would ever sanction FGM. Their ignorance is beyond belief.
PRCS says
And their belief that the rest of us will buy into their delusion.
Kubra Jawher says
Do you know that female circumcision is an obligatory Islamic duty? Do you know there are more ahadeeth specific to female circumcision than male circumcision?
1) “When the (male) circumcised part meets the (female) circumcised part, bath becomes obligatory” (Ahmad, Tirmidhi)
2) The hadith related by Abdullah Ibn Umar who states that the Prophet instructed some Ansar (Medinan) women visiting him to ‘be circumcised’ (Mukhtassar zawaid musnad al bazzar, Ibn Hajar).
3) The hadith where the Prophet told Umm Atiyyah Al Ansariyyah, a lady who circumcised girls in Medina: “When you circumcise, cut plainly and do not cut severely, for it is beauty for the face and desirable for the husband” (Abu Dawud, Al Awsat of Tabarani and Tarikh Baghdad of Al Baghdadi).
4) Umm Al Muhajir said: “I was captured with some girls from Byzantium. (Caliph) Uthman offered us Islam, but only myself and one other girl accepted Islam. Uthman said: ‘Go and circumcise them and purify them” (Adab al Mufrad of Bukhari)
5) Umm Alqamah says that when the nieces of Ayisha’s brother were circumcised, ‘A’isha was asked: “Shall we call someone to amuse them?” “Yes” she replied (Adab Al Mufrad)
The evidence is clear that female circumcision is Islamic and obligatory. Why would Hazrat Ayisha have her nieces circumcised and Caliph Uthman order women who had embraced Islam to be circumcised if it were not obligatory? Our best scholars including Imam Shafi, Imam Hanbal, Ibn Taymiyyah and Sheikh Jaddul Haqq declared it to be obligatory for women. A good Muslimah follows the fitra of circumcising and does not fall for Zionist misinformation regarding our religious duties.
Besides, it’s a very simple procedure involving removal of the prepuce of the clitoris which is like the foreskin taken off from little boys at circumcision and benefits us in terms of genital hygiene and increasing sex pleasure. Even Western women are increasingly choosing to undergo it as a minor surgical procedure known as hoodectomy.
