The issue of female circumcision: a clear picture of intellectual dilemma that we as Muslim Umma nowadays experience; also has become an area of scientific falsification:

Some speaking with the name of medicine from which they are distant . Some near to medicine but lack scientificfacts and fundamental tools of giving fatwa’s . Some are women or others addicted with media and excitement . Some INGOs and other agencies have nothing to do but female circumcision – though not authorized neither possessing a solution!

But Solution already exists: Look at Islamic sources and in Muslim Scholars writings and interpretations .This paper as such is a scientific argument and a religious discussion – a message to face the current unjustified and unscientific global campaign to prohibit every and all forms of female circumcision, because, as they claim, every and all forms of female circumcision are genital mutilations!

Is that true?! Scientific?! Or Justified? !.

organs formation is the same in both male & female

At 8th –to- 10th week male & female reproductive organs are identical

After 12th week obvious differentiation between the 2 sexes

occurs.

Embryological similarities in the external genitalia:: * Scrotal skin of males is equivalent to Labia major in females. * Front part of male urethra is equivalent to the tissues of labia minora* The clitoris is equivalent to The head of the penis.* The male prepuce is equivalent to the clitorial hood .*
