A hidden world of exploitation by men working as "spiritual healers" has been uncovered by the BBC.

What is not in the article is that the problem is basically built into Islam since there are four reliable muslim male witnesses required in order to punish a rapist and when those witnesses are not available often the women is punished since she admitted with her rape allegations that she had extramarital sex.

    Just gonna say that what you just said about Islam is not true. At all. I could link sources but they’re in Arabic.

      but they’re in Arabic.

      That is not a blocker. Everyone has access to translation services, and lots of people can read Arabic or have friends who can read Arabic.
