Assalamu Alaikum,

I was wondering what are people's thoughts on the case of Fayhan Al-Ghamdi.


Plain evil act in religious disguise. Considering he is freed- than the system is rotten. My grandmother used to say: Even tigers don't eat their children. Yet sometimes we label some human as such: You animal!, forgetting what we are.

And with that in mind I have to be proud of myself for what I do to my daughters, I am sure I have done the right thing to them as a father, and inshallah I will continue to do so to the end.

Salaam Alaikum.

Thanks for sharing this, Abuayisha. Ninety days in prison is a horrifically short sentence for what he did... how can you slam a baby into the wall???

Saudi Arabia clearly isn't the only nation where the law is miscarried.

I believe that Lamaa and Sailor will spend eternity with God, and they will never again be abused by anyone. May their killers repent and turn to Him for forgiveness while they still can...

By the same token, any so-called Catholic (priest or not) who sexually abuses a child "cannot be" a real one, therefore in no way calls into question the culture, values or ethics of that religion. Hmmm.

I had to re-read that line a few times just to make sure I got it right.
God has the right to remain silent. For His advocates, however, each resigned shrug is a missed opportunity to win new converts.

Just sickening.  My stomach hurts from reading and I have no words.
Money as compensation for gross mistreatment of a child (or any living being, creation of God)?  A man such as this walking free.. free to do again such a heinous thing?  A person has to be demented(possessed of evil) to behave this way.
and what kind of justice allows a person like that to go free?

Salaam Alaikum, Abuayisha.

Thanks for sharing this. What is your opinion on the sentence imposed?

Is 4 months in prison and a $50,000 payoff a satisfactory penalty for torturing to death a five year old girl?
