I am an American of Muslim/Arbaic heritage. I have spent time in Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan. I have never heard of this f-ing practice before in my life

This genital mutiliation crap is an African cultural artifact-- drawn out of their ancient tribal practices.

This is not part of any Islamic tradition that I'm aware of. And having been with women from that part of the world ( in the Biblical sense), I can state this with some confidence.

It's pathetic that some here equate this to a religious practice.

So why don't Muslim clerics CONDEMN it? Can't they excommunicate (or whatever they call it) any African Muslim who condones this practice?
