Islamic Scholar Says Grooming Gangs ‘Have Nothing to Do With Islam.’ (Except They Do.)
2026-09-19
[PJMedia] Hey, this is a relief: the Moslem grooming gangs that raped and assaulted over 250,000 British girls actually have nothing to do with Islam. So all you "Islamophobes" need to sit down and shut up, because at last we have an Islamic voice speaking out loud and clear against these gangs, and not just any Moslem voice, either, but a leading Islamic scholar. There are still a few problems with this rosy scenario, but don’t worry: we’re really on our way now to our glorious multicultural future.

Geo News reported Sunday that "religious scholar Pir Muhammad Hassan Haseeb-ur-Rehman has condemned grooming gangs by the likes of Rochdale rapist Shabir Ahmed, saying those involved in such crimes have no connection with Islam and must face the strongest punishment available under the law."

Pir Hassan is touring Britannia, "where he addressed nearly 50 packed gatherings, the prominent holy man said Moslems must be among the first to condemn and report anyone involved in grooming, sexual exploitation, drugs, criminality or extremism, irrespective of the offender’s religion, ethnicity or family background."

That sounds great, and Pir Hassan Haseeb-ur-Rehman is not just some random Moslem believer. He is "associated with Eidgah Sharif in Rawalpindi, one of Pakistain’s prominent Sufi religious centres, and is widely known for addressing religious and spiritual gatherings in Pakistain and overseas. The centre has tens of thousands of followers in the UK."

Pir Hassan was unequivocal about the rape gangs, saying: "First and foremost, Moslems need to condemn grooming gangs. We strongly condemn them. They have absolutely no connection with the teachings of Islam." He added "that anyone involved in sexually exploiting children must be opposed and punished, regardless of whether they happen to be Moslem, Pak or from any other background."

This sounds great, and the holy man wasn’t finished. He continued: "If people from within our own community are involved in wrongdoing, they must be opposed. Remaining silent in the face of wrongdoing is, in effect, becoming complicit in it." He also said that "grooming and sexual abuse were ’against Islam, against humanity and against the law,’ stressing that Islamic teachings provided absolutely no justification for the exploitation or abuse of children."

Most of those involved in these gangs are Moslems, and so Pir Hassan said: "Grooming gangs, drug pushers, criminals and bandidos forces of Evil who happen to be Moslem have brought disrepute upon Moslems and our community. There is no doubt that Moslems enjoy freedom of religion here. Moslems should respond to those freedoms by becoming responsible, peaceful and law-abiding citizens. When this country has given you freedom of religion and made the necessities of a good life available to you, Moslems should reciprocate by living as good, peaceful and responsible citizens." Can’t argue with that.

Maybe Pir Muhammad Hassan Haseeb-ur-Rehman is right about this. But if he is, he should kindly explain why so many Moslems seem to have exactly the opposite idea. In La Belle France, a Moslem quoted Qur’an while raping his victim. A survivor of a Moslem rape gang in the UK has said that her rapists would quote the Qur’an to her, and believed their actions justified by Islam. Thus it came as no surprise when Moslem migrants colonists in La Belle France raped a girl and videoed the rape while praising Allah and invoking the Qur’an. In India, a Moslem gave a Qur’an and a prayer rug to the woman he was holding captive and repeatedly raping.
