[7] <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">It is sometimes called &#8222;Sunna circumcision&#8220; because of the fact that it is the type that is usually performed by Muslims who believe that it is allowed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Type II: This type is known as clitoridectomy, the clitoris and the labia minora are partially or completely removed. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Type III: One of the most extreme types of FGC is the complete removal of the clitoris, both the labia minora and majora, and connecting the two sides of the vulva over the vagina by suturing with thread or other means so that they eventually heal together. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Only a small, pencil-sized hole is left to drain menstrual blood and urine. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">This is known as infibulation or pharaonic circumcision, referring to its origin.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Type IV: This type includes all other types of genital changes, such as piercing, piercing or cutting the clitoris and \/ or labia; <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Stretching the clitoris and \/ or labia; <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Burning the clitoris and surrounding area; <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Cutting, scratching (angurya cuts) or cutting (gishri cuts) the vagina or the surrounding tissue; <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">and the introduction of caustic substances or plants into the vagina. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Geographical spread<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Different types of FGC are practiced around the world, but it is most common in Sub-Saharan Africa; <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">in a volume that extends from Senegal to Somalia, as the map shows. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Circumcision also exists in the Middle East, North and South America, Indonesia and Malaysia. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Type III occurs exclusively in Somalia, Sudan and southern Egypt, and also in some regions of Mali and Nigeria.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">In some societies, such as Somalia, Eritrea and Ethiopia, we find type III FGC in almost all women. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The reasons range from considering that the woman is unclean if the clitoris is not completely removed, to ensuring that the women remain chaste until their marriage. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">This practice is a very old custom in these societies and members are afraid to refrain from doing it because they fear chastisement. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Women could not find anyone to marry them or even be accused of fornication. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Families could lose their honor if this tradition is not followed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">FGC was also common in North America and especially in the United States; <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">until 1950, types I, II and III were used to control women&#8217;s sexuality. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Clitoridectomy has been used for a variety of reasons. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">One of the main reasons was to reduce masturbation. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">In England, Isaac Baker Brown published a book on his success in preventing masturbation in women with clitoridectomy. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">He also claimed that it healed strange nervous disorders such as hysteria and epilepsy. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">[8] Much more masturbation solutions were offered, such as chastity belts, which were first used in the Middle Ages to ensure that wives remained chaste when their husbands were away. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">To prevent masturbation in boys, rings with spikes and even more drastic methods were used,<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">In one of the most classic books in pediatrics, Diseases of Infancy and Childhood, which was printed eleven times between 1897 and 1940, the author LEHolt advocated cauterization of the clitoris as well as cauterization of the vulva as a preventive measure against masturbation. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Masturbation was seen as the cause of many diseases, such as neuroses, disobedience and disrespect towards parents. [10] <\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">In the United States, an organization known as the Orificial Surgery Society was created that publishes journals that mention the various benefits of clitoridectomy, even for simple things like headaches.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">There are also many hygienic benefits attributed to clitoridotomy. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">CF McDonald stated in a 1958 paper entitled Circumcision of the Female [11]: \u201cIf men need circumcision for cleanliness and hygiene, why not women? <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">I may have operated on 40 patients who needed this treatment. \u201d <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The author said it heals &#8222;irritation, itching, excitability, masturbation, frequency and urgency&#8220;, and smegmaliths that cause &#8222;dyspareunia and frigidity&#8220;.<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Until recently, the clitoris was considered to be impure. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Even Sigmund Freud, one of the founders of modern psychology, said in one of his books, Sexuality and the Psychology of Love, that &#8222;eliminating clitoral sexuality is a necessary prerequisite for the development of femininity.&#8220;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Nowadays, many adults choose to volunteer for clitoridotomy because some doctors [12] and others [13] advocate clitoridotomy by claiming that it increases sexual enjoyment. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">They say that an oversized clitoris hood could hinder clitoral stimulation. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Some websites, such as Circlist, BMEzine, and geocities, even show testimonials from people who have undergone this process, as well as medical reports that praise these practices. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">They show that the majority of women reported increased sexual enjoyment after the procedure (87.5% in Rathman&#8217;s studies, 1959 [14] and 75% in Knowles&#8216;). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Footnotes:<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">[1] Some opponents of this practice use the term female genital mutilation, or FGM, but the term FGC is commonly used nowadays to avoid irritating social sensitivity. <\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">[2] What is Female Genital Mutilation? <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Amnesty International ..

This procedure is harmless and has no side effects on women and is comparable to male circumcision as mentioned earlier. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Some have even argued that this procedure has beneficial effects, as mentioned earlier, such as increased sexual enjoyment, preventing unpleasant odors resulting from the build-up of foul secretions under the foreskin, and reducing infections in the genitourinary tract and reproductive system. [2]<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">As far as the other types of FGC are concerned, there is no basis for this in Islam, but they are rather strictly forbidden, which is suggested by the hadith, which allows them but prohibits them from going to extremes. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Islamic law also protects the woman&#8217;s right to sexual enjoyment, which shows the fact that a woman has the right to divorce if her husband does not provide for her sexual satisfaction. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">As for those Muslims in certain parts of the world who practice that type of female genital mutilation if they grow in their understanding of Islam, they will also refrain from doing these disgusting acts. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">A clear example of this is that the various groups in Kenya that do not circumcise women are Muslims while it is a country<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">However, we must emphasize that the correct point of view is that there is no reliable text that directly encourages any form of female circumcision, and so the matter is left to other general texts that prohibit harm and those that do harm ask everything that is beneficial and beneficial to health. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">A foundation of Islamic law is that something that has not been specifically prohibited is permitted but is still subject to other indirect texts. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">This brings a lot of tolerance to religion, but it also allows dealing with new issues that time brings with it. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">If it is found that circumcision is useful for women or for society, then it would be necessary in Islam because all things that are useful for life <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">are recommended by religion. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">But if circumcision is found to be harmful, then it will be considered something absolutely forbidden, like Dr. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Abd al-Rahm\u00e2n b. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Hasan al-Nafisah, editor of the Contemporary Jurisprudence Research Journal in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, stated in his article entitled Female Circumcision &amp; Islam: \u201cIn Islamic law, the protection of the person &#8211; life and physical integrity &#8211; is a legal requirement. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Anything that endangers this legal requirement by harming the person is prohibited. \u201d[3] <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Editor of the Contemporary Jurisprudence Research Journal in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in his article entitled Female Circumcision &amp; Islam stated: \u201cIn Islamic law, the protection of the person &#8211; life and physical integrity &#8211; is a legal requirement. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Anything that endangers this legal requirement by harming the person is prohibited. \u201d[3] <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Editor of the Contemporary Jurisprudence Research Journal in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in his article entitled Female Circumcision &amp; Islam stated: \u201cIn Islamic law, the protection of the person &#8211; life and physical integrity &#8211; is a legal requirement. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Anything that endangers this legal requirement by harming the person is prohibited. \u201d[3]<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Footnotes: <\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">[1] Talkhees al-Habeer. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Hadeeth # 2140. <\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">[2] Female Circumcision: A Medical Perspective, Sitt al-Banaat Khalid. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">2003. <\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">[3] (http:\/\/islamtoday.com\/showme2.cfm?cat_id=2&amp;sub_cat_id=822).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Source: https:\/\/www.islamland.com\/deu\/articles\/beschneidung-von-frauen-im-islam<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(part 1 of 2): The History of Female Genital Cutting (FGC) and Its Types A common phenomenon that is unfortunately almost exclusively associated with Islam is the different forms of female circumcision or FGC [1].
