Call for Xuzhou City Lady from Muslim World
Call for chained woman
of Xuzhou from Muslim World
In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Glory to God, Creator of all beings in the
universe. May God send blessings the prophets.
On January 28, 2022, the incident of a chain woman was exposed in
Feng County, Xuzhou, China. She was kidnapped, raped, abused, injured,
imprisoned, and used as a reproductive tool as far as she was chained. She lived a
very harsh life. Her tragic experience made every person with conscience feel
heartbroken. People were all shocked and indignant. They expressed their
sympathy and sent messages of support to the chained woman in various ways. At
present, the chained woman incident had spread all over the world, and drawn
the global attention. However, the chained woman's background hasn’t been figured
out so far. The harm she suffered hasn’t been compensated, and the persecutors
are still at large. Moreover, we would like to appeal to worldwide Muslims to support
the chained woman to be rescued as soon as possible on our behalf. May God have
mercy on her.
Islam means peace and submission. We believe in one God. We follow the
guidance of all the prophets of all nations and the teachings of the Qur'an. We
are devoted to achieve peace on the earth. Therefore, it is the duty of every
Muslim to persuade people to do good and not to commit sins. The Qur'an teaches
us: Help one other in righteousness and in warding off evil, but don’t help one
other to commit sin and transgression. (Quran 5:2)
Human beings are servants of God, and are born with freedom. We
oppose any form of human-to-human enslavement, so we can’t endure any tournament
and enslavement to our fellow human beings. In the face of injustice and
persecution, it is responsible for every Muslim to speak out for justice and
condemn any injustice on the earth.
The Qur'an says: “O mankind, indeed We have created you from male
and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another.” (Qur'an
49:13) According to the teachings of the Qur'an: Men and women are born
together. (Qur'an 3:195), men come from women, and women come from men. Men and
women have their own fortes, and there isn’t superior or inferior between these
two genders. Islam historically opposed son preference, and condemned any injustice
towards women. The Qur'an expressly asked men to be kind to women: Be kind to
them. (Qur'an 4:19) The Qur'an initiated giving women a right to own and
inherit property, and a right of choosing who they want to marry. Women, as independent
individuals, are never allowed to be private properties of men, and never
allowed to become commodities for sale. The Qur'an condemned the evil practice
of female infanticide in the times of ignorance, and revealed that all female
infants who are murdered will be avenged. And when baby girls, buried alive,
are asked, for what crime they were put to death. (Quran 81:8)
Prophet Muhammad taught us: “Be kind to women, because women are
your mothers, your aunts, your aunts, your sisters, and your daughters.” He
also said: “The kindest among you is the one who treats his wife best.”
"This world doesn't want me anymore!" "The home is
full of rapists!" "Let me go!" They are the crying and
accusations from the chained girl with sorrowful tears. As servants of God, we
felt deeply sad by witnessing her tragedy. We couldn’t tolerate a human being
hurts like that, and our faith told us not to be silent about it. What happened
to this chained girl is a disgrace to the mankind. If we didn’t stand up to
condemn this rascality for justice, we would feel disturbed, would shame our
faith, and would be ashamed of questions from God.
Therefore, we are appealing to everyone to respect women and treat
them nicely. We are also appealing to completely eradiate discrimination and
victimization against women. Unfortunately, there are so many tragedies
happening from then and now. According to statistics from 1986 to 1989, there
are 40000 women trafficked in Xuzhou alone. And according to newest report,
there are millions of people trafficked. Furthermore, there are Uygur and
Kazakh women being persecuted horribly in another way. But they are merely
known by Chinese.
We are strongly appealing to people to speak out in as many as ways
as they can to save these women who are suffering. No matters who they are.
They can be Uygur women, Chinese women or foreign women. Because they are our
mothers, our daughters and our sisters. We are strongly appealing to people to
pay attention to women’s rights, condemn and stop all kinds of victimization
against women. Until one day, every women can live in a safe environment,
aren’t afraid of being trafficked, raped and imprisoned. And They can live
their life with freedom and dignity.
Quran says: “ We have sent you ‘O Prophet’
only as a mercy for the whole world. ” (Quran 21:107) We are here to spread
mercy from God. We are accountable to have actual efforts to spread love from God.
Therefore, let’s pray to God for guiding Chinese to get rid of ignorance and
cruelty, for seeing truth, and enjoying peace from God. May God have mercy on
us. May God give us power. May God protect us from slavery. May God protect us
from chains of the wicked to enjoy a life with happiness, freedom and dignity.
Amin!
