Mazen Al-Sersawi, a prominent Egyptian Salafist cleric has suggested Islam allows men to have sex with their illegitimate daughters and marry them.

He cited prominent Muslim scholar Imam Al-Shafi'i as saying because illegitimate daughters are not officially attributed to their fathers, they can be married to them. He makes the claims in a video which has gone viral and he has been widely criticized for the comments. In the video, Al-Sersawi said Imam Al-Shafi'i is known for saying men may marry their own daughters that are born out of wedlock.
Al-Sersawi, who teaches at the prestigious Egypt's Al-Azhar University, claims Al-Shafi'I says a girl born in an adulterous relationship is 'not really his daughter'. Because an illegitimate daughter does not carry her father's name, 'she is not his daughter according to Sharia. She is not officially attributed to him'.
What's your say on this?
Morally this is wrong. How can someone married his daughter born out of wedlock? Most of this cleric are misleading please.

ReplyDeleteIf a man has a daughter out of wedlock, will the girl not Carry his D.N.A, as long as she carry the D N A of the man ,he is not permitted to marry her.

I think you could have seek for the truth as a learned person and not insult. This man has spoken lies and cannot be used as standard
DeletePlease, not a Muslim but this statement is wrong both Islamically and morally. I never believed someone can make such claims and morally think it's correct.
ReplyDeleteSurat an nisa'i 22 to 23 has cleared it. It's very explanatory without ambiguity.u don't need anyone to interpret
