Fatwa gegen Ehrenmorde (11. August 2007)

Und auch hier werden wieder deutliche Signale gesetzt: Sayyed Muhammad Hussein Fadlullah, oberster geistlicher der Hisbollah, spricht sich mit seiner Fatwa gegen Ehrenmorde aus:

“A vicious phenomenon, that of the so called “crimes of honour”, is on the rise in more than one country in the Arab and Muslim worlds, especially in Palestine, Jordan and Lebanon. Some men tend to kill their daughters, sisters, wives and female relatives, under the pretext that they had committed acts that harm chastity and honour.While on the contrary, those men are not enraged when their male relatives commit such acts. As if chastity is a duty that is should be observed by the woman only.In fact, “honor crimes” are based on the male tribal mentality that is still controlling the minds of many people, and not on a sense of honour or dignity.I view “the crime of honour” as a repulsive act, condemned and prohibited by religion. It is also a full crime whose perpetrator must be punished without any commutations. That is because these crimes are committed without any sound evidence from the juristic point of view and are mostly based on suspicions. Hence, the man, whether he was the husband, father, brother, or the male relative does not have the authority to take the law into one’s own hands or to punish the woman, which should be the authority of the just judicial power. Those who commit such crimes must be punished in this life. This crime is also considered a one of the Kabair (severe sins) whose perpetrator deserves to enter Hellfire in the afterlife.“

Ich meine, für Muslime ist das nichts neues. Vielleicht werden einige Islamkritiker erkennen, dass der Islam solche Taten nicht toleriert und auch nicht billigt - überhaupt gar nicht seinen Ursprung im Islam haben, wie eine Studie vom BKA dies belegt. Ehrenmorde sind kein orientalisches Problem, sondern auch in Lateinamerika (Brasilien) oder Italien.
