SEXUAL VIOLENCE

According to the National Crime Victimization Survey, which includes crimes that were not reported to the police, 232,960 women in the U.S. were raped or sexually assaulted in 2006. That's more than 600 women every day.6 Other estimates, such as those generated by the FBI, are much lower because they rely on data from law enforcement agencies. A significant number of crimes are never even reported for reasons that include the victim's feeling that nothing can/will be done and the personal nature of the incident.7

Women of Gaza

Women of Gaza were subjected to the 22 day Israeli military attack on Gaza that killed over 1400, including 192 women and over 400 children, and wounded more than 5,000 Palestinians. Women of Gaza waving white flags were killed by Israeli snipers. Women of Gaza standing at kitchen windows were blown apart by Israeli bombs made in the United States. Women of Gaza died in the streets when Israeli soldiers refused to allow emergency medical personnel to help them to hospitals. Women of Gaza watched the bodies of their children melt from white phosphorus wounds. Women of Gaza held their dying children in their arms. Women of Gaza found the bodies of the husbands and children in the rubble of their homes. Women of Gaza now wait for their wounded children to return from hospitals in Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Women of Gaza live in tents because their homes were destroyed in the bombings. Women of Gaza hold children who have nightmares about the bombings they have endured. Women of Gaza wake up from their nightmares about their lives in Gaza.

[Asja]

Assalamu allaicum wa raahmatulah wa barakatuhu

Jazzak Allah khair dear sister for this very good remainder. Alhadmulillah.

As Muslims, we sometimes forget how Islam is great reward from Allah to us and we forget to implement it in every part of our lifes. Suffering of woman from all around the world, especialy in the West between non Muslims is because woman have lost their honour and dignity and have been objected by thier bodies from the side of man, Astagfirullah.

But Alhadmulilah we have Islam and Allahs Deen is giving complete protection for Muslim woman. I pray to Allah that every Muslim can understand that Inshallah,and that we never look for other ways of protecting one woman, except what Islam is ordering us.

May Allah reward you once again dear sister,and may Allah guide us all.
