If she had been an infidel, they would have expected nothing better than prostitution from her. But if she was a Muslim, she was committing zina, a crime involving improper sexual relations, and was worthy of death.
“Customer, friends lynch, burn Lagos sex worker for keeping Quran in room,” by Deji Lambo, Punch, June 14, 2022:
The Lagos State Police Command has charged three suspects to court for allegedly beating a prostitute, Hannah Saliu, to death and setting her corpse ablaze for keeping the Holy Quran in her room.
PUNCH Metro gathered that one of the suspects patronised Saliu and after having sex with her, he reportedly paid her N1,000 for the service.
The customer was said to have left her room when she suddenly discovered that her N5,000 had gone missing.
She reportedly ran after the customer and accused him of stealing her money.
The accusation, however, degenerated into an argument.
The customer was said to have mobilised his friends to Saliu’s room to search for the missing money.
While searching the place, the friends reportedly found a Quran underneath her pillow.
A source said Saliu was questioned for possessing the Quran with the kind of job she was doing, adding that the customer and his friends, who became infuriated by the discovery, pounced on her, beat her up and set her ablaze.
The source said, “What happened was that the girl was a prostitute and a customer patronised her and after sleeping with her, the customer paid N1,000 for her service.
“But when the customer was leaving, he stole the prostitute’s N5,000 and after discovering that her money had gone missing, the prostitute chased him to ask for her money.
“The Northerners, who were with the customer that the girl accused of stealing her money, asked if she was sure that he stole her money. So, they decided to go and search her room where she attended to her customers.
“While searching the room, they found Quran under her pillow and started asking what she was using the Quran for as a prostitute. So, they started attacking her; they stabbed her, took her out and set her ablaze.
“The incident happened at Alaba Rago, where a lot of Northerners reside. The girl that was killed also came from the North. Their grouse was that she was not supposed to be carrying Quran because of the kind of work she was doing.”
A source identified the suspects as Abubakar Musa, Sarauta Monsur, and Surajo Yusuf….

The Koran has no objection to prostitution. Mohammed called it ‘temporary marriage’ and authorized it, then cancelled it, then authorized it again. When Mohammed died, ‘temporary marriage’ remained in effect because he did not cancel it a second time.
Prostitution is ‘halal’ and normative Islam, but just don’t call it that!

Mount Zion says
I have heard of temporary marriage , isn’t there a ceremony you have to undergo infront of an Imam ?
If you don’t temporarily marry here than I’m asking myself if you are still within Islamic law . That is a genuine question
Is a male allowed to visit a prostitute without temporary marriage ?

Besides temporary marriage, Muslims can also rape Infidels and keep sex slaves and still be considered “chaste”–all things that make patronizing prostitutes seem fine and upstanding in comparison.

Also true, Mortimer.
somehistory says
that’s just downright sleazy….to go to a prostitute, cheat her and then pretend to look for what he stole.
and then, to murder her because she engaged in the same thing in which he was engaging…not theft on her part…and that’s just not acceptable for mozlums. And their further actions: that’s downright demonic.
Doing the devil’s desire and fulfilling their own lustful desires to have sex and then carry out some murdering and desecration of a corpse. One “reaps as they sow” and their time will come.

Did a quick check and these animals beat her to death over one of them stealing $17 Aussie dollars.
The excuse of finding a quran in her room was probably just to try and justify their pathetic actions.
Sickening.
Mount Zion says
Maybe they themselves planted the Quran in her room to get away with having to pay back the stolen money .

Could be.
Infidel says
For me, the main news of this story is that jihad has gone has far as Lagos, the former capital which is in the Christian south of the country, not the muslim north. I wonder how long is it before Nigeria will become the next Afghanistan, and Boko Haram will form the next government?

Yes–scary stuff.
Mount Zion says
How pious of them to be enraged that a prostitute has a Quran under her pillow .
This piousness however doesn’t
have nothing to do with the fact that they themselves have Qurans in
theie homes and still visit prostitutes .
How incoherent , like everything else in Islam.
OLD GUY says
Mohammad the perfect man and self appointed prophet of god. He sounds more like just another crazy person who wants to rule the world.

Nigeria: Muslim customer and his friends murder prostitute for keeping Qur’an in her room
………………………..
This *poor woman*.
So patronizing a prostitute–let alone *murdering her* is fine–but a prostitute keeping a Qur’an? Now *that’s* Haram.
God, I hate Islam.
