COUNCIL OF ISLAMIC IDEOLOGY DECLARES WOMEN'S EXISTENCE ANTI-ISLAMIC
Islamabad
- Sharia Correspondent: The
Council of Islamic Ideology (CII) concluded their 192nd meeting on
Thursday with the ruling that women are un-Islamic and that their
mere existence contradicted Sharia and the will of Allah. As the
meeting concluded CII Chairman Maulana Muhammad Khan Shirani noted
that women by existing defied the laws of nature, and to protect
Islam and the Sharia women should be forced to stop existing as soon
as possible. The announcement comes a couple of days after CII’s
191st.
meeting where they dubbed laws related to minimum marriage age to be
un-Islamic.
After
declaring women to be un-Islamic, Shirani explained that there were
actually two kinds of women – haraam and makrooh.
“We can divide all women in the world into two distinct
categories: those who are haraam and those who are makrooh.
Now the difference between haraam and makrooh is that
the former is categorically forbidden while the latter is really
really disliked,” Shirani said.
He
further went on to explain how the women around the world can ensure
that they get promoted to being makrooh, from just being
downright haraam. “Any woman that exercises her will is
haraam, absolutely haraam, and is conspiring against
Islam and the Ummah, whereas those women who are totally
subservient can reach the status of being makrooh. Such is the
generosity of our ideology and such is the endeavour of Muslim men
like us who are the true torchbearers of gender equality,” the
CII chairman added.
Officials
told Khabaristan Today that the council members deliberated
over various historic references related to women and concluded that
each woman is a source of fitna and a perpetual enemy of
Islam. They also decided that by restricting them to their
subordinate, bordering on slave status, the momineen and the
mujahideen can ensure that Islam continues to be the religion
of peace, prosperity and gender equality.
Responding
to a question one of the officials said that international standards
of gender equality should not be used if they contradict Islam or the
constitution of Pakistan that had incorporated Islam and had given
sovereignty to Allah. “We don’t believe in western
ideals, and nothing that contradicts Islam should ever be paid heed.
In any case by giving women the higher status of being makrooh,
it’s us Muslims who have paved the way for true, Sharia
compliant feminism,” the official said.
The
CII meeting also advised the government that to protect Islam women’s
right to breathe should also be taken away from them. “Whether
a woman is allowed to breathe or not be left up to her husband or
male guardian, and no woman under any circumstance whatsoever should
be allowed to decide whether she can breathe or not,” Shirani
said.
