Do muslim women get circumcised?

Question

Ive heard something once (not from a very reliable source thats why im asking here), that muslim women get their clitoris circumcised, so that they couldn't get any pleasure or orgasms. Is this true?

Answer 1

many women who are not circumcised can never achieve any pleasure or orgasms as well.

Answer 2

Unfortunately there are many especially African countries where female genital mutilation is practiced, and yes -- some of those practicing such are Moslem.  But no -- it is not particularly a Moslem practice.

Just a barbaric one...

Blessings!

Answer 3

Relatively few muslima are circumcised - though the prophet Mohammed certainly endorsed the practice.

The practice is not confined to Africa. It followed Islam to Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Indian subcontinent.

It was also practised among Muslims in the West until the practice became illegal in the 1990s.

Answer 4

There is female circumcism, practiced mostly in Africa, without the consent of the young lady.  More important, it is done without the services of a trained physician in a hospital setting.  Allegedly, broken beer bottles have been utilized in place of a scalpel, all under the guise of controlling female sexual desire.  In effect, it only causes excruciating pain,  and a lifetime of discomfort and anxiety, if lucky enough to survive  the ordeal.

It is my understanding the the United Nations World Health Organization is mounting a global effort to fight this barbaric practice.
