To
mutilate in the name of Jehovah or Allah: legitimization of male and
female circumcision.
Abu-Sahlieh SA.
Swiss Institute of Comparative Law, Lausanne.
Female circumcison is practised in Sudan, Somalia, Egypt and a
few other Arab and Muslim countries. It has triggered a passionate
public debate in the West. This debate has found somewhat of an
echo in the Arab and Muslim world, but some Muslim religious circles
such as Al-Azhar (Egypt), the most important Islamic centre in the
world, try to justify it on the basis of sunnah (that is, to conform
with the tradition of the prophet Mohammed). Male circumcision is
practised by all Muslims and Jews and also by some Christians in
Egypt, in the United States and Canada). For different reasons,
the debate on this topic is still taboo in Western and in Arab and
Muslim countries. The object of this study is to define the role
of Islamic law and Muslim religious leaders in female and male circumcision.
On purpose, it avoids any use of the word 'Islam', and concentrates
on the written sources of Islamic law and the opinions of contemporary
Arab authors, mostly of Egyptian origin. Juridical logic cannot
acknowledge the distinction between female and male circumcision,
both being the mutilation of healthy organs which is damaging to
the physical integrity of the child, whatever the underlying religious
motivations. Furthermore, both practices violate the Koran: 'Our
Lord, You did not create all this in vain' (3:191), and '[He] perfected
everything He created' (32:7). In our opinion, a god who demands
that his believers be mutilated and branded on their genitals the
same as cattle, is a god of questionable ethics. To mutilate children,
boys or girls, under the pretext that it is for their own good,
shows the influence of cynicism and fanaticism.
