Norway: Ministry of Children and Family Affairs helps Muslim migrants send children to abusive Quran schools abroad

May 28, 2020 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Education and Integration Minister Guri Melby blames Norway for the failure of Muslim migrants to assimilate: “We haven’t been good enough. The main rule for this not to happen is for families to be well integrated in Norway, well acquainted with Norwegian values and that the children to be familiar with their rights.” Yet “Norwegian migrant-background youths” are “being sent to Quran schools in Somalia and Kenya to prevent them from becoming ‘Norwegianised.'” Is that because of a failure of Norwegian authorities, or because some migrant populations have no intention of assimilating?

Now the Norwegian Ministry of Children and Family Affairs is doing just the opposite of assisting Muslim migrant children to assimilate: it is actually working with Muslim parents to have Muslim migrant children indoctrinated at abusive Quran schools abroad, often sending them to these schools against the childrens’ will, and even paying for their ticket.

The Norwegian authorities have in several cases actively assisted families in sending children to so-called Quran schools abroad, whose brutal pedagogical methods and reported abuse previously triggered national concerns and caught the attention of Prime Minister Erna Solberg, who called this practice illegal.

One would hope that Prime Minister Solberg will follow through on bringing these authorities to justice. But it was first reported that Muslim migrant children were being sent away to abusive Quran schools back in 2017. At that time, the Norwegian government “promised a crackdown on this practice, threatening to withdraw the at-risk children’s passports to prevent them from leaving.” What has been done since then? Now authorities are found to be assisting in the practice. It is also important to note that Solberg has been Prime Minister of Norway since 2013, so she has every reason to have been well aware of the practice.

This stunning story will likely continue to be ignored worldwide, as well as in Norway itself. Making matters even worse is the fact that less than five years ago, the Norwegian government seized five children from their parents’ custody for “alleged Christian indoctrination.”

Norway is rapidly being Islamized. The fertility rates of its native population are at an all-time low. Its Muslim population was near 9% three years ago, and an “increased number of Norwegians are choosing to become Muslim.” Muhammad is the most popular name in the capital of Oslo.

“Norwegian Authorities Helped Migrant Parents Send Children to ‘Quran Schools’ Abroad,” Sputnik International, May 26, 2020:

In a process euphemistically called “cultural rehabilitation”, migrant-background youths are sent to their ancestral countries to avoid being “Westernised”. Reports of torture and ideological brainwashing of the Islamist kind have emerged.

A 125-page report called “Not Just a Holiday” penned by a joint expert panel on behalf of the Norwegian Ministry of Children and Family Affairs has highlighted the role of authorities in the process of young people from migrant families being sent abroad, often against their will.

The expert group voiced criticism of how the authorities handle the problem. According to the report, the Norwegian authorities have in several cases actively assisted families in sending children to so-called Quran schools abroad, whose brutal pedagogical methods and reported abuse previously triggered national concerns and caught the attention of Prime Minister Erna Solberg, who called this practice illegal. Apart from failing to prevent this situation, the child welfare service even paid for the tickets in some cases, the report said.

“The job done is not good enough when it comes to preventing the children from being sent out of the country” researcher Anja Bredal of the think tank Nova told national broadcaster NRK. “We have seen that the child welfare service in some cases supported families who would send their children to Quran schools in Somalia. We are very critical of this. We recommend a strengthened effort, which requires honing the skills in child abduction cases”, Bredal added.

The expert panel interviewed young people who have been sent abroad against their will and obtained information from professionals, family members, and various services. Among other things, the report concluded that almost half of the victims later suffer psychological problems….

Education and Integration Minister Guri Melby pledged a new action plan to cope with the problem.

“We haven’t been good enough. The main rule for this not to happen is for families to be well integrated in Norway, well acquainted with Norwegian values and that the children to be familiar with their rights”, Melby said.

The report was ordered following a disclosure of Norwegian migrant-background youths being sent to Quran schools in Somalia and Kenya to prevent them from becoming “Norwegianised”…..

    What the hell has happened to that ‘viking’ spirit? Norway, Sweden, Finland take your pick, in 10 years they will be Islamic cultures. And the native people will stand around asking what happened.

      In a garden setting an organism that uses up resources, provides little fruit, and rapidly reproduces, soon overruns the garden. Of course, the amount of damage depends on the particular nature of the invading species, from little damage to severe.

      Islam’s ability to suppress economic advancement seems to be proportional to the population’s gullibility.

      Finland has nothing to do with Viking culture. I live there so I know. Also Finland is much more selective about whom is granted ‘asylum’ here. We have only 2.7% of the population who are Muslim. Sweden has over 24% and its total pop. is about twice that of Finland. Finland is not considered to be part of ‘Scandinavia’ (Denmark, Sweden and Norway) its origins are from the Fenno Ugric culture. So get your facts straight

        Well, I was going to mention that roughly 10% of the Finnish population is ethnically Swedish due to a previous incorporation of Finland into Sweden. I was also going to mention that ”Finland” is the Swedish name for Suomi, the Finnish name for Finland, but I guess I better not.

    Maybe I’m old school. I think children are under the control of their parents decision make until they are 18. I am NOT advocating for muslims who send their kids to a madrasa outside of their home country. Sending a child to an abusive madrasa should be reason enough to remove the child from the household. I’m against the PS mentality that allows this to happen.

      I generally agree–but abusing your children is not part of parental rights in a civilized nation.

    Integration Minister Guri Melby is a naïve, virtue-signalling Pollyanna. Muslims have no desire to assimilate. Islam assimilates KAFIRS into Islam.

    Muslims in Norway will continue to build no-go zones from which to attack and subjugate all of Norway.

    Norway should send these children abroad only if they promise never to return.

    A study has yet to be done to determine how many boys are raped in madrassah/Koran-memorization schools.

    If such a study is done, I am certain it will create a disgust and a revolution within Islam the world has not seen.

    It is obscene to let the mullahs getting away with raping boys in the madrassahs.

    • gravenimage says

      May 28, 2020 at 9:14 pm

      Mortimer, sadly I doubt that many Muslims would revolt if they knew their children would be beaten and raped in Madrasses. After all, many of their fathers–the very people sending them to these schools–suffered just the same.

    There is nothing in Muslim-majority countries that is better than the culture of Norway, except for the climate, perhaps. Norway is lowering its quality of life by importing a dysfunctional, misogynistic culture.

    • gravenimage says

      All grimly true, Mortimer.

    Like in many other countries Norway has said goodbye to truth and falsehood and replaced them with opinions, acceptable and unacceptable. To criticize the “religion” of Islam is unacceptable, and it is a mere coincidence that rapes and deadly terror are almost always committed by Muslims. You should not talk about that. If you do you will be suspected for having Breivik sympathies.

    The Norwegian authorities have no clue what Islam is. And they may not find out before it is too late

    More suicidal insanity.

    It’s a lot easier to train people to be killers if you start them at a young age. Islam doesn’t care if they ruin these children’s future or lives they want to use the children to do their dirty work. Islam is the culture of death and lies.
