A country that is struggling to rein in their growing Muslim
population has recently implemented some mandatory changes to crack down
on Islamic terror and devout jihad in a way that some might find
“extreme,” but the world should follow their lead.
Since the 1994 election of President Emomali Rahmon,
Tajikistan’s government has made a massive effort to drive out devotion
to Allah and the jihad, subjugation, persecution, and oppression that
comes with it — and some might say it’s working.
The
Times of India
reports that federal police were dispatched to personally shave nearly
13,000 Muslim men’s beards, a symbol of their religious dedication to
Islam. The central Asian country forced men to line up for a quick
shave, and it’s assumed that many more will come forward before the
policy is completed.
President Emomali Rahmon is fighting Islamic governance in Tajikistan, a country with a Muslim population of 98 percent.
However, this required grooming wasn’t the only measure the
Muslim-majority’s leadership put in place. In fact, to prevent the
influence of barbaric Islamic customs from neighboring Afghanistan and
Pakistan, the country has been fighting Muslim culture with several
controversial ordinances within the last year, according to
Mad World News and
MSN.
- Last week, the parliament officially passed
legislation to ban Arabic-sounding names, encouraging citizens to give
their children Asian names instead.
- In the same week, the country outlawed legal marriages
between first cousins, a huge social and religious move, since around
half of all marriages between Muslims are first cousins.
- Last year, Islamic beards were banned, although only recently have they begun to crack down on offenders.
- The government is pressuring women to relinquish
hijabs, labeling wearers “prostitutes.” Law enforcement has successfully
convinced over 1,700 women and girls to leave behind the oppressive,
misogynistic custom.
- Restaurants are forced to serve alcohol and cannot legally
display “no alcohol” signs, arguing that such a policy violates the
rights of alcohol drinkers.
- Hajj, the yearly pilgrimage to Mecca, has been
outlawed for Muslims under the age of 35 to prevent young people from
being religiously influenced by such a dangerously devout Muslim
country.
- Authorities have closed independent mosques and are
encouraging imams to refrain from sermons that uplift Sharia law over
the country’s governance.
- To ensure a more secular, freer republic, the Supreme Court
banned the country’s only registered Islamic political party for
encouraging violence and sedition.
Although
shaving beards might not prevent Islamic terror, it is a symbolic step
in requiring Muslims to assimilate to and obey their country’s laws.
While most Muslims around the world will stop at nothing to destroy
all man-made governments and implement strict Sharia law, Tajikistan
teeters on the border of freedom and religiosity, and it remains
dependent upon Russia, regardless of their legal independence.
Tajikistan is a prime example of how dangerous Islam is to
Muslims themselves. Although the population is 98 percent Muslim, their
government is a struggling, young republic that gained independence
after the Soviet Union fell. Now, they’ve realized that if they do not
wish to transform into yet another 7th-century, Islamic wasteland, they
must physically deter their majority from becoming devout Islamists.
Although many Muslims and ignorant apologists will cry foul
about the compulsory legislation that widely targets Islamists, they
fail to acknowledge that without it, Muslims absolutely cannot coexist
with non-Muslims or even each other for that matter. Islam is such a
tyrannical, oppressive religion that its violent and compulsory commands
must be restricted, lest others fall victim to its requirements.
It is ignorant to think all cultures and religions are equal
and must therefore be given respect, legitimacy, and a place to
practice. What place would a cannibalistic, warring, human-sacrificing
tribe’s culture have in a country governed by democracy, personal
freedom, and equality? Why then should Islam — the religious example of a
man who had sex with a child, beheaded unbelievers, took their wives as
sex slaves, and modeled that the world should be forced through
violence and manipulation into obeying Sharia and worshiping Allah — be
tolerated by a culture that boasts that all have the right to life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?
