Raped women guilty if not modest

Religious Meddlers, Do-gooders

Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradaw continues the tradition of blaming a woman who has been raped if she's dressed 'immodestly.'

One question asked: "Are raped women punished in Islam?" A panel, headed by Mr al-Qaradawi, replied: "To be absolved from guilt, the raped woman must have shown some sort of good conduct . . . Islam addresses women to maintain their modesty, as not to open the door for evil.

The learned doctor also supports wife beating - just don't hit the sensitive (?) parts. And gay people should be burned or stoned.

'For her to be absolved from guilt, a raped woman must have shown good conduct'

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Raped women guilty if not modest. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
