Honor killing in India: Muslim family beheads daughter's boyfriend

The couple had fled in order to get married, but the girl’s family lured them back.

This is an Islamic phenomenon, and can only be stopped if it is confronted as such. Muslims commit 91 percent of honor killings worldwide. A manual of Islamic law certified as a reliable guide to Sunni orthodoxy by Al-Azhar University, the most respected authority in Sunni Islam, says that “retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.” However, “not subject to retaliation” is “a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or offspring’s offspring.” (‘Umdat al-Salik o1.1-2). In other words, someone who kills his child incurs no legal penalty under Islamic law.

The Palestinian Authority gives pardons or suspended sentences for honor murders. Iraqi women have asked for tougher sentences for Islamic honor murderers, who get off lightly now. Syria in 2009 scrapped a law limiting the length of sentences for honor killings, but “the new law says a man can still benefit from extenuating circumstances in crimes of passion or honour ‘provided he serves a prison term of no less than two years in the case of killing.’” And in 2003 the Jordanian Parliament voted down on Islamic grounds a provision designed to stiffen penalties for honor killings. Al-Jazeera reported that “Islamists and conservatives said the laws violated religious traditions and would destroy families and values.”

“Bulandshahr: Honor killing takes life of Muslim boy,” by Urvashi Singhal for Parda Phash, February 6 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Bulandshahr: Despite the laws passed by the government, cases of honor killing are not ready to stop in the country. Every now and then, we hear 2-3 cases related to honor killing. As per reports, another incident has been reported from Bulandshahr where a Muslim boy was killed by the family members of a Muslim girl because the two of them were in love with each other. Also, the girl has gone missing.

Reports suggest that the girl had fled with the boy in order to get married because they knew that their family members would never accept their relation. However, when the girl’s parents came to know about it, they contacted their daughter and asked her to come back with the boy.

The parents comforted their daughter by saying that once she is back, they would let her marry the boy she was in love with. However, they defied her trust by killing the boy at the time of marriage.

The boy was beheaded by the members of the girl’s family. As of now, the police is interrogating into the matter.

India: Muslim attempted jihad mass murder attack on mosque because tourists were entering it in skimpy clothes

Skimpy-clothed’ tourists triggered Jama Masjid attack,” by Vijay V Singh for TNN, February 7 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
MUMBAI: Indian Mujahideen (IM) terrorist Yasin Bhatkal organized the attack on Delhi’s Jama Masjid in 2010 as he was upset with tourists entering the mosque in skimpy clothes. This is what Yasin told the National Investigation Agency (NIA) following his arrest from the India-Nepal border last year.
Yasin had not discussed the plan with IM chief Riyaz Bhatkal before the attack, the NIA interrogation report to the Centre said.
Two terrorists on a bike opened shot at tourists at Jama Masjid on September 19, 2010, and Yasin parked an explosive-laden car near the mosque to ensure maximum damage. But the timer on the bomb failed, saving hundreds of lives. Two Taiwanese tourists were injured in the firing.
IM founder Riyaz Bhatkal had apparently instructed Yasin to target prominent places in Delhi on the anniversary of Batla House encounter and also sent terror operatives including Waqqas and Asadullah Akhtar alias Tabrez to help Yasin.
Yasin arranged a rented accommodation for the two at Shastri Park in Delhi and himself lived at Shaheen Bagh. He told NIA that he along with an accomplice Qaiser alias Chhotoo visited Jama Masjid on July 15, 2009 and was incensed to find some Russian woman tourists dancing in “objectionable clothes” in the rain
inside the mosque. They were “reduced to tears” by the scene, Yasin claimed, adding he hatched the Jama Masjid attack “to teach the tourists a lesson”.
Yasin procured weapons from Delhi and bought 20 kg potassium nitrate and other chemicals from Anand Parbat area; with the chemicals, he made the bombs at his hideout, he told investigators. Yasin stole a bike from Gandhi Nagar to be used by Waqqas and Tabrez and also picked up a Maruti car from the same area. He tried to steal another car but dropped the plan after its alarm went off, he told NIA.
Yasin and his associates decided to target Gate 3 of Jama Masjid as most tourists entered from there. Accordingly, he parked the bomb-laden car near the gate and walked away towards Lal Qila bus stand where his accomplice Irshad waited for him in a car, NIA officers said, adding they drove back to Shaheen Bagh. The two shooters also returned to their hideout after the firing. The two hung a white handkerchief outside their home to indicate to Yasin who visited the spot the next day that the operation was successful.
It was only three days later that Yasin informed Riyaz about the attack and the IM founder apparently got angry with him for targeting a Muslim-dominated area after keeping him in dark.

India: Court rules against Muslim organization that sought ban of anti-terror film

That sounds like something that every Muslim individual and group that professes to reject jihad terrorism should support, but instead, a “leading Muslim organization,” Jamiatul Ulema-e-Maharashtra went to court to try to get its release stopped. This was even after they succeeded in getting the filmmakers to remove portions they found objectionable. They failed in court, but it is unlikely that we have heard the last of this story. The film opens tomorrow. Grab some popcorn.
“Court nod for anti-terrorism film release,” by Mohammed Wajihuddin for TNN, February 7:
MUMBAI: Granting relief to the makers of Ya Rab: Jihad Against Terrorism, the Bombay high court on Thursday did not stay its release on February 7.
Hearing a petition filed by a leading Muslim organization Jamiatul Ulema-e-Maharashtra, A division bench of Chief Justice Mohit Shah and Justice M S Sanklecha The HC said that the petitioner, Jamiatul Ulema-e-Maharashtra, can inform it at next hearing on February 13, if it feels that the film has objectionable scenes even after the disclaimer and fresh censor certificate obtained after deleting the objectionable portions.
“We had appealed against the film’s release on a wide perception as reflected in a section of Urdu press that it would create trouble and inflame communal passions. But the HC heeded to the disclaimer and claims made by the filmmaker that the objectionable scenes and dialogues have been removed. We will see if these changes have been made in the final prints. If my client is not satisfied, we will appeal to the court to stop its screening,” said advocate Afroz Siddiqui, who represented the petitioner, a Muslim organization. The film has become a matter of intense debate in the community ever since a group of community leaders watched it at a private screening last week. They had also petitioned political leaders and senior policemen seeking their intervention to stop its release before Jamiatul Ulema-e-Maharashtra moved court.
