Pakistan Human Rights Commission: Hindus and Christians “have been complaining of forced conversions”

May 9, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Islamic tolerance. The Qur’an says “There is no compulsion in religion” (2:256). However, what constitutes “compulsion” is in the eye of the beholder. The institutionalized subjugation of the dhimma, with its regular humiliation and harassment, from which one can be freed for the simple price of converting to Islam, is not considered compulsion. Remember Steve Centanni and Olaf Wiig, the journalists who were kidnapped and forced to convert to Islam — even though their conversions were obviously coerced, their captors made them say that they were converting freely, and the captors probably believed that themselves. After all, the journos could have chosen to be killed instead.

“Pakistan is ‘hell’ for Hindus and Christians, heartbreaking report surfaced,” by Shivani Gite, NewsTrackLive, May 8, 2020:

Islamabad: Many religious minorities including Hindus and Christians in Pakistan faced forced religious conversion and persecution in the year 2019. According to the Pakistan Human Rights Commission (HRCP), religious minorities have been unable to take religion or their freedom under the law of the country. The report titled ‘Human Rights Status in 2019’ states that, ‘Both Hindu and Christian communities in Sindh and Punjab have been complaining of forced conversions and forced conversions of girls under 14 in Punjab and Was forced to marry [sic].

In Sindh, the families of two Hindu girls claimed that they were abducted for marriage and forcibly converted. The Islamabad High Court said in its judgment that the girls were not minors during the marriage and were asked to return to the husband’s house. According to the report, the top court in January set up a commission to implement the 2014 ruling to protect the rights of minorities and promote a culture of religious and social tolerance. In order to protect the minorities from forced conversions, the 22-member parliamentary committee was finally informed in November and tasked to make laws against forced conversions.

In the cases of kidnapping and forced conversions among Hindus, there has been a dispute whether the girls involved in this married with their consent or they were forced….

    Muslims are stupid if they think they can force anyone to be one of them. Oh sure, “I’ll just hop up and down yelling Allah Allah and stick my butt in the air all day long but in reality I don’t believe any of this crap.” I swear, you have to be mental to believe in a “god” that says go out and rape and kill and torture.

      But if any of these Christians or Hindus try to leave Islam they will be murdered.

    Even the courts in Pakistan do not have the courage to rule against the forced islamic conversion brigade. The judges fear for their lives and rule in favor of the mullahs saying girls cannot be proved as minors. Does that mean it is okay to force adults to convert? Many of these minors after rape and conversion are not allowed to be interviews alone. They are not allowed to meet their families. They are not taken into custody and provided protection that they need to speak freely. They are accompanied to court by a huge menacing crowd of men. All these feminists and liberals screaming islamophobic in the West need to hang their heads in shame for not speaking about the plight of these young girls. Their innocence is lost too soon and in the most cruel way possible.

      Too true.
      Once, just once, I’d like to hear the femonazi’s in the west stand up on their hind legs and defend these victims of institutionalized rape and forced conversion.

        I believe in equal rights for women, and I condemn kidnapping, rape, and forced conversions.

      TruthSeeker, most courts in Pakistan agree with forced conversions.

    This is further proof that Islam so terribly lacks any good solid logical arguments that are based on reason or even common sense to hold hat religion up that the imams incite and use a number of other Muslims to use force to gain “convert’s to Islam ” This alone exposes the very weakness of the foundation of Islam.

    So much,so that the followers of Islam need to use duress and fear of violence to obtain “converts ” to Islam.

    And the authorities aid the Muslim thugs here.

      because the authorities are muslims.

    Two things:-

    1. What sort of agenda should anyone expect from a ‘Human Rights Commission’ in a muslim country?
    2. Forced conversions, along with all the other aggressive supremacist strategies, have been the mainstay of islamic imperialism from the beginnings of this ‘religion’, since world political domination – and that alone – has been the only real goal of islam from the start. So who do the Pakistan authorities think they’re kidding?.

    This is only one muslim majority country. What about all the others we never get to hear about? Forced conversions, paying the Jizah tax, leave the country or death, What a religion of peace!!

    Convert or die that’s the islamic motto. Islam the religion of death, rape and child marriage coming to your neighborhood. The sad part of this is that its being helped by our christian leadership and politician’s who think that islam is made-up of moderate muslims, there is no such thing. You only have to look at the Muslim/islamic lead countries around the world to see the violence, inhumanity and discrimination that the population has to live under. Stop the islamic migration into the non-muslim countries.
