Report: Islamic Legislators In Egypt Allegedly Move To Allow Husbands To Have Sex With Dead Wives

Women’s groups are justifiably worried about the domination of Islamic parties in Egypt and the move to rollback on the hard-won rights of women in that country. Now, according to the Daily Mail and various other news sites, legislators are pushing not only to lower the age for marriage for girls but to protect “farewell intercourse” where a husband can have sex with his dead wife up to six hours after she died. If true, both pedophilia and necrophilia would be divinely ordained, according to Islamic clerics in the country. It is not clear if this is a hoax with some people in Egypt reportedly denying the report while others continue to report the story. [Update: A new article is contesting the truth of the necrophilia part of the story]


One law would legalize the marriage of girls starting from the age of 14.

The concept of “farewell intercourse” is traced back in the stories to Moroccan cleric Zamzami Abdul Bari who spoke on the issue in May 2011. He insisted that an Islamic marriage remains valid even after death — though in what passes for feminism among radical clerics, he added that a wife could also have sex with a husband up to six hours after death.

Islamic legislators are also moving to rollback on various rights for women, including the right of women to secure a contested divorce.

The “farewell intercourse” proposal obviously will attract most of the attention this week. However, the real concern should focus on the attack on women’s rights. Women made great strides under the prior regime — offering Arab women an island of opportunity in the Middle East. As one of the largest nations in the region, Egypt has the potential of destroying basic rights of millions of women. The terrible irony of the “Arab Spring” is that Egypt (like other countries like Libya) has seen citizens immediately using their newfound rights to seek the denial of rights in others. The fate of millions of women are now in danger from falling to the imposition of harsh Sharia law and religious edicts.

  1. mespo,

    I suspected as much simply from the headline.

    It is nice, however, to know that I can still be surprised by the depths of depravity capable by humans.

  2. What Mespo said. Sex with a corpse must be alot of fun. Would this law lead to honor killings in order to have sex with the victim?

  3. Do they all want to go to Allah so they can have 76 virgins. The virgins might not be accommodating. 76 against 1?

  4. Why must people always turn protest movements into creepy sex? Its the necrosexual revolution.

  5. And in the US, McCain tweets that he is headed to the floor to discuss the “ludicrous partisan imaginary war on women”. Big vote up today on the Violence Against Women Act.

  6. AN,

    Not bad for a resettlement of American Slaves to produce rubber etc….. The history of this country is vast….. If memory serves me…. I think a number of folks register ships there as it’s easier to do business…. Less restrictions….and piracy is still big business as well….

  7. I wonder if the dead woman had sex with someone other than her husband she would be stoned to death for infidelity.

  13. Sorry, my Dogalogue machine which translate growl, grrr and bark into human lingo wont allow the S — word but it will spell out the word poop.

  14. When the Egyptians were in the streets at El Tahir Square a lot of Europeans were rolling their eyes and muttering. Many Americans on the other hand saw this as a Spring. You know the phrases: Spring Forward, Spring is here. Well, this French guy who hangs at our dog pack track was saying that “those people” were not ready for colonialism much less combining tribalism into democracy. He called it Springtime For Hitler in Germany. He said that there was some old hippie movie in America that used that phrase. He says its Autumn for Poland and France. I dont know how some movie could explain anything, but he predicted that these folks would be employing democracy to instill the dark ages. He says that American Exceptionalism is not too Exceptional now. I dont know what he meant by that one either. All I know is that if they tried that crap over here that Nancy Grace would be all over them like stink on…..

  15. A. Y. –

    I’ve often suspected that most males are programmed to mate with anything that wiggles.

    Apparently for some, wiggling isn’t even a prerequisite.

    I’m guessing – with our “can’t we all just get along?” warp-speed melting pot mentality – these cases will soon be coming to a courthouse near you.

    And me.

  16. Wow, that really is sick. The world continues to surprise me with the stinking depths to which humanity can sink.

  18. To answer the question all must be asking: Yes, these are crazy people.
