Muslim prisoners in the UK ‘refuse to take part in rehabilitation programmes.’
Previously, Muslim prisoners refused to take part in Sex Offender Treatment Programmes because it involved talking about offences against women, but now some are refusing to take part in all rehabilitation sessions where they have to ‘open up’ in front of other cons.
A little more explanation:
One Muslim prisoner, Abu Dira, a maximum security prisoner at HMP Long Lartin in Worcestershire, said this week: “Muslims cannot speak about their past crimes in a group setting.
“It is an established concept within the Sharia that a Muslim must not speak about the Haraam – prohibited things – and certainly should not advertise past mistakes to their peers.”
He says that it is clear from the words of Islamic prophet Muhammad, called a Hadith, that it was wrong to talk about past crimes.
He said: “This is clearly supported by Hadith – If you keep your evil away from the people, Allah will record this as a charitable act from yourself for yourself, so corruption is not to be spread amongst Muslims.”
A religious ward against treatment of psych disorders and violent social dysfunction. Total disaster. Nihilism. This isn’t about Western information vs. Islamic information; these guys need to learn skills and practice using them to make it less likely that they do the crimes again.
