Jump To Comment: 1"About a month ago the world media reported a shocking decision by a Saudi judge in which he refused to annul the marriage of an 8-year old girl to a 47-year old man. But to those who are already familiar with the so called Islamic laws of Saudi Arabia this ruling was merely the latest in the sequence of several such cases of human rights abuse in the name of the shariah. The question is: does the Islamic law really uphold child marriage? "
this is one of many pitiful problems reported in some of the bizarre news reports coming out from Saudi. Western ignorance of Wahhabism in the west fails to understand its anti-civilisation agenda. Wahhabism is a crusading, prosletising & blood-thirsty "denomination" of Islam.
Muhammad ibn Abd-al-Wahhab, an 18th century scholar advocated a return to the practices of the first three generations of Islamic history. he wanted to purge Islam of innovations and practices.
