Thread: next time you defend clerics, think again.
Here's what a Lahore maulvi who performed my nikkah did. Lied to the courts about my right of divorce on my marriage document despite 800 witnesses on my wedding day. Alleged I had no right. Divorce attempts dragged on
During this time, an Islamabad maulvi performed a nikkah ceremony for my still-husband and his mistress while forging my consent on their marriage documents, a criminal act. This was concealed from me while I continued to struggle to get my right of divorce
Finally 2.5 yrs later, I was forced to file for khula. My basic rights denied to me despite my right of divorce on my nikkah papers, despite my ex remarrying. Never got my paltry haq meher either. All bcs I have ovaries & live in Pk. Thank you, maulvis. https://wwww.aljazeera.com/amp/indepth/features/women-pakistan-struggle-divorced-dignity-190306231602365.html
Don't you dare say #NotAllMaulvis
Seriously, telling me NoT aLl MauLViS aRe bAd is the same as saying #NotAllMen 🤦🏻‍♀️

ENOUGH ARE AWFUL FOR IT TO BE A VALID PROBLEM.

ENOUGH self-styled clerics are pervy, child molesting, domestic violence-promoting, lying, hypocritical jerks. They get paid. They are answerable.
