Female genital mutilation has no known health benefits. On the contrary, it is known to be harmful to girls and women in many ways. First and foremost, it is painful and traumatic. The removal of or damage to healthy, normal genital tissue interferes with the natural functioning of the body and can cause several immediate and long-term health consequences. For example, FGM can cause excessive bleeding, swelling of genital tissue and problems urinating, and severe infections that can lead to shock and in some cases, death, as well as complications in childbirth and increased risk of perinatal deaths

And yet it prevails and indeed practiced and taught in Islam....bad news. This is what happens when men are allowed to be the religious experts and interpret how they see fit ....whatever fits their agenda that is
Instead of their God

And yet this was an Imam in America? At an important conference. Don't you think that this goes on in the USA? Three doctors have already been jailed for this practice so of course it happens in America
women do that by choice and actually Pay to have it done.
