On April 21st 2015 Eurasia.net reported in a story entitled "Georgia's Child Brides: Opting for Marriage over School" where Nikkah was blamed for allowing the rise in what is described as female children (under the age of 18) being forced into marriage under the guidance if religious men conducting Nikkah ceremonies that are not recognized by the State. A similar story was later published in by the same news source the next day titled "Kyrgyzstan Sees Rise in Child Brides", once again the reporting attacked Sharia Law and Nikkah as a social problem oppressing Muslim girls, placing them in violent abusive relationships and destroying their educational and vocational ambitions.
Comment
Both of these articles, as well as many others written in the past, represent a growing trend to isolate Islamic culture and Sharia Law as a brutal and cruel influence tormenting the lives of women who would otherwise have had happy and productive futures. The implication that Liberal Secular culture holds some salvation for women and girls and would secure their rights is a gross misrepresentation of the truth. Child abuse, trafficking in girls, female slavery and domestic violence are all increasing problems spiraling out of control in not only in Russia and the former Soviet States but the world over. Ironically the same news source only recently published a story entitled "'We Want a Voice': Women Fight for Their Rights in the Former USSR" on the 8th of March 2015, which exposed the great dissatisfaction that women of the region's most established democracy have with their political status. A quote from the article states; "...for the average Soviet woman (secular/democratic) emancipation meant a life of drudgery; bearing the "double burden" of home-making and child-rearing alongside work outside the home.......in a country beset by rampant shortages and widespread abuses.......
Today, almost 25 years after the fall of the USSR, many problems faced by women across the post-Soviet states have a familiar ring in the west." So it is clear that Sharia Law is by no means to blame for the origin of the misery and hardships faces by women in the Caucuses. The truth is that the problem of girls being forced in marriage has nothing to do with Sharia Law and more to do with economic injustices that create the needs of families to "sell" their daughter off into marriage before they are capable of carrying out the duties of being a wife.
The absence of a true Islamic political system that delivers the educational and social system is the real issue to be addressed. The Khilafah "Caliphate" of the past never had a problem of women being forced into marriage as there were real powers available to secure the laws of Allah (swt) and the Sunnah of the Prophet (saw) that forbade such practices. The State promotion of the high moral values of women being an honour to be guarded and respected created male citizens that were mature in their understanding of what it means to be a man responsible for protecting the rights of the dependents in his charge in a loving and secure family unit. Islamic Sharia does not validate a nikkah where women do not have their consent so linking forced marriage to Islam is a gross fabrication of the reality. Sharia Law actually promotes the happiness of the man and women in marriage as is proven in the Ayat of Quran in Surah 30 verse 21;
((وَمِنْ ءَايَٰتِهِۦٓ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُم مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَٰجًا لِّتَسْكُنُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهَا وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُم مَّوَدَّةً وَرَحْمَةً ۚ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَءَايَٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ))
"And of His signs is that He created for you mates from among yourselves, so that you may find tranquility in them; and He planted love and compassion between you. In this are signs for people who reflect."

Hizb ut Tahrir in the Wilayah of Pakistan held demonstrations across Pakistan against National Action Plan. Participants held banners and placards declaring "Instead of Stopping the Raymond Davis Network, National Action Plan is Persecuting Ulema and the Islam-Loving People" and "America's Raymond Davis Network is the Cause of Insecurity in Pakistan".
The Raheel-Nawaz Regime used the Peshawar school massacre as an excuse to target Ulema and Islam loving people in order to put an end to Jihad in Afghanistan and call of implementing Islam in Pakistan. Masters of Raheel-Nawaz regime sitting in Washington are scared of the return of Islam as they have seen that how Muslims across the globe act swiftly on every issue regarding Islam and its Ummah and the Muslims of Pakistan are always in forefront. So they have ordered their agents, traitors in the political and military leadership, to follow, terrorize, detain, abduct or even kill every soul which dared to challenge American Raj in Pakistan and want to wage Jihad against it in Afghanistan.
Hizb wants to make it clear that the source of instability, bomb blasts and killing is the presence of America which is no doubt is the enemy of Pakistan and unless its footprints in the form of C.I.A. and Raymond Davis network are not erased, people of Pakistan won't be able live a peaceful life. Through bomb blasts and killing, America wants to establish that its war against Islam is actually our war and Raheel-Nawaz regime is actively supporting its plan in achieving this objective.
Protestors demanded from the sincere officers of the armed forces that they must extend support for the establishment of Khilafah "Caliphate", the shield which will uproot every sign of American presence from Pakistan and Afghanistan. And this is the only plan, establishment of Khilafah "Caliphate" upon the method of the Prophethood, which will bring peace and stability in this region.

Turkey seeks to improve women's status in politics - Through the Means of Secular Capitalism which Humiliated Women. Meryem Göka, vice chair of Turkey's incumbent AK Party women branch, which has more than four million members, was one of the women rights experts gathered at the European Parliament to discuss the political participation and rights of women in Europe and the Muslim world. "We are working on women's issues and aim to raise women's standards and make them more visible in politics," Göka said. "We want them (women) to be more effectively represented in the (upcoming June) elections," she added. "At least one third of the Member of Parliament candidates should be women," she said.

Comment:
In 2011, the number of female deputy candidates was 268 in total from all four parties, but for the upcoming June elections the number has nearly doubled to 528 with the AK Party including 99 women, the HDP has listed 268, the CHP 103 and the MHP has listed 58 female deputy candidates. Especially well-known names who were all victims of the February 28 postmodern coup like lawyer Fatma Benli, Dr. Leyla Şahin Usta and Ravza Kavakçı, are among the most prominent figures on the AK Party's candidates list. Also the HDP (pro-Kurdish Peoples' Democratic Party) can trump with a famous February 28 name, Hüda Kaya.
Turkey promises to raise standards of women through making them more visible in politics - the secular democratic capitalist politics imposed on the women of this Ummah after the removal of the Islamic ruling, the Khilafah "Caliphate". However; all the humiliation that women endured during these last 90 years of capitalist secular democratic ruling were caused by the very same man-made system. Who can talk better about this than the new prominent candidates of AKP and HDP? Especially, if they want to make efforts for the rights and living standards of women in Turkey, they should also see clearly that removing the hijab ban in public, granting women more political rights and similar may have changed the general picture of appearance in Turkey but have not contributed in any way to the well-being of the majority of Turkey's women. Increased rates of violence against women, femicides, increased levels of prostitution, as well as more women working under unacceptable conditions in bad paid jobs, and more, are not only discussed in Turkey but across the world. Every democratic secular state has the same illnesses in the same increasing levels. So the root of the problem is surely not a lack of women in politics, but the way of politics that abuses women in order to prolong this capitalist system's existence. As long this failed, corrupt, man-made system is not removed from its roots there will not change anything for the women neither in Turkey nor anywhere else in the Muslim world. This system has to be replaced by Islam as it was defined by the Lord of The Worlds, where politics is made according the Qur'an and Sunnah, and where women are an important part of ensuring the God given rights and duties for the women, the men and the children and the whole Islamic State. Only than women's rights and status will flourish again as it did in the past under the rule of the Islamic Khilafah "Caliphate" State.
