In the name of “Islamic morality,” authorities have “warned textbook publishers not to print any diagram or sketch in biology textbooks that show human figures ‘sans clothes.’”
Pakistan has been emboldened under its Prime Minister Imran Khan, who is committed to moving his country (and the whole world in fact) toward even stricter observance of Sharia law. Although Pakistan is infamous for its cruel blasphemy laws, Khan has still captured the support of the United Nations, with support from the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, in exporting the “Islamophobia” subterfuge everywhere. Within his own country, he is indoctrinating the younger generation to apply Islamic doctrine to science now. The mullahs of Pakistan are supervising content in biology books. Any images that portray the human body in a way that compromises “Islamic morality” is being flagged.
“Mullahs are supervising biology books. Imran Khan govt has put Pakistan in reverse gear,” by Pervez Hoodbhoy, The Print, June 20, 2021:
Implementation of the PTI’s Single National Curriculum has started in Islamabad’s schools and for students the human body is to become a dark mystery, darker than ever before. Religious scholars appointed as members of the SNC Committee are supervising the content of schoolbooks in all subjects including science. In the name of Islamic morality they have warned textbook publishers not to print any diagram or sketch in biology textbooks that show human figures “sans clothes”.
For the teaching of biology this surpasses existing de facto prohibitions on teaching evolution, the foundational principle of biological sciences. Illustrations are crucial to explain the digestive system (with both entrance and exit points) and human reproduction, as well as the mammary gland. Diagrams, sketches and human skeletal forms cannot be draped. Excluding these from schoolbooks reduces the teaching of biology to a farce.
Inhibitions about the human body, of course, have been around for much longer than SNC. It’s just that henceforth there will be still more. I have looked at a few biology textbooks published in past years by the Punjab and Sindh Textbook Boards and could not find meaningful accounts of mammalian organs and processes needed to sustain life on earth.
In one book from 1996 I did find a diagrammatised rabbit. But with essential parts fuzzed out, it is difficult to figure out whether it was male or female or the equipment that rabbits need to reproduce themselves. That someone should think an un-fuzzed diagram of this little animal would titillate students or stimulate promiscuous behaviour stumps me.
When enforced, clerical interpretations of modesty — translated as sharm-o-haya — cause people to suffer grievously. For example, ex-senator Maulana Gul Naseeb Khan, former provincial secretary of the MMA, roundly condemned diagnostic devices that can look inside women’s bodies because, “We think that men could derive sexual pleasure from women’s bodies while conducting ECG or ultrasound”….

Jihad Jeopardy — Muslim for $100
A. Non-Muslims are converted, those who refuse are slaves, and those who refuse slavery are killed.
Q. How does a country become 99% Muslim?
Prince Eugene says
To all patriots,
Never ever give up your guns.
Happy 4th of July!
Savvy Kafir says
Agreed! The way things are going, this would be an especially bad time for anyone to give up their guns. Things are likely to get a lot worse before they get better.
Savvy Kafir says
It’s too bad the millions of Muslim-adoring “liberals” and “progressives” throughout the West are totally ignorant of how that works.
Raja says
That is the recipe for 100 % “peace”. The world leaders are striving very hard towards that.
mike says
so does Pakistan have any medical schools?
here’s the book to teach students with no illustrations
Remind me to never employ a Muslim doctor
suppress Muslims to advance
James Lincoln says
mike,
I am a licensed US physician, board certified in two specialties.
You are correct, stay away from muslim physicians…
gregbeetham says
Zakir Naik is an example of an Islamic ‘medical doctor’ but I don’t know if he does any doctoring these days since he seems to proclaim Islamic bilge on stage to gullible audiences mostly and that’s probably a good thing, or the lesser of two bad things, but whatever, I wouldn’t let him treat my dog let alone a human.

They are just sick people..
Infidel says
Wonder how they do surgeries? Do they have a fully clothed person on the operating table, and start dissecting him/her w/ the clothes on? When they do C-sections, do they cut the salwar before getting to the belly?
Why don’t they ban people having sex nude? At least they can go extinct quick and solve the issue of climate change in their country

Since Islam seems to have a history of rape & destruction, we imagine this isn’t going to change their behavior.

‘In the name of “Islamic morality,” authorities have “warned textbook publishers not to print any diagram or sketch in biology textbooks that show human figures ‘sans clothes.’”’
Wonderful idea! Take Islam back another 500 years! A few centuries won’t make a difference.
Raja says
Pakistan is devil’s own country. The authorities want to control everything, reminiscent of a fascist nation.
Even their morality is screwed like their beloved religion. Why should an evil religion be addressed a religion at all?
Bikinis not Burkas says
How do devout Muslims cure medical conditions?
They bash their heads on the ground multiple times a day while preying to a stone statue (Allah) and a fat white dwarf (Muhammad)
The perfect man, NOT, defective DNA.
Muhammad was WHITE!

Pakistan: Textbook publishers must observe ‘Islamic morality,’ not print pics showing human figures ‘sans clothes’
…………..
This is Islam–teaching anatomy is immoral, but teaching oppression, rape, and murder is perfectly Halal.
God, I hate Islam.
