Moroccans and "marital rape" .. "social good" under religious cover

Away from the incidents of sexual harassment and rape attempts that have been greatly accounted for with the interest and frustration of Moroccan public opinion, especially after the "bus girl" incident, which knew the attempt by young teenagers to rape the young woman Zainab collectively in a humiliating way inside a public transport bus, activists and actors of another issue no less important and controversy, which isMarital rape.

In this case, the husband remains the accused, as in cases he intends to “coercion the wife on sexual intercourse without her desire, in a way in which the threat or violence is used”, according to identical definitions that are not different from reality, as one of the interrogations says in a previous poll of the street’s opinion that I accomplished.Hespress: “The man’s briefing for his wife without her consent is disgraceful and unacceptable.”.

Another Moroccan young woman believes that the matter has become a phenomenon in Moroccan society, which is stated: “She expresses the fading of love between the spouses after marriage, and turning it into hatred.” He added that the result “creates a problem with the woman who deals with her husband with caution and fear”;While you see that the treatment of the phenomenon remains through awareness campaigns "should affect the man's awareness of the first place".

Women campaign

Marital rape was the focus of controversy and protesting a number of civil activists, who came to the street recently, in solidarity with the "bus girl", in parallel with a campaign on social media platforms launched by "Alternative Movement for Individual Freedoms" known as "Mali", underThe slogan "Male justice..To punish rapist criminals..

The campaign, which was launched under the mark of "the culture of rape", believes that "marital rape is not a marital duty, but a crime", that "thousands of women in Morocco are raging daily", which is the campaign that sparked controversy and conflicting comments, including a comment that says: "The community has madeFrom it a legitimate rape..The woman thinks herself without value, but some animals are better than her.While some see that the matter is related to "my husband's taunting, not a marital rape".

Religious debate

Activist and researcher in the religious affairs, Mohamed Rafiki, wrote an exciting “post”, considering that it is linked to marital rape with religion and the culture of Moroccan society, saying: “The rape that falls on the matrimonial mattress is carried out with a social cover and a religious legitimacy”, pointing out that such a culture is not a bid forMakkorian societies are backward, but the calamity and catastrophe when they are granted the cover of religion, and they become a religion and a law that must be complied with it..

He described the head of the "Al -Mizan" center, which is "the eye of rape", adding that "a codified rape unfortunately with jurisprudence and heritage, and no legal penalty for him, and above that he enjoys a good amount of social acceptance", as he put it..

He added: “Then the woman’s response becomes the response of her husband and she is not satisfied and is not a religious matter, compliance and obedience to God and His Messenger, and dedication to the fact that the man alone who desires, who desires and who moves his animal hormones, and the woman is only a container that contains and receives”.

A wrong understanding of religion

Jawad Mabrouki, the writer and psychiatrist, considered in a statement to Hespress that the most prominent causes of marital rape remain the male culture prevailing in the name of religion and by the wrong understanding of him, explaining that there are religious texts and societal beliefs "that make the man in the rank of strength and sees himself that he has the right to plow the woman and herAvailable to him all the time..While the woman sees herself as young and followed by the wrath of the angels if she does not meet her husband's sexual desires..

Congratulations to the absence of sexual culture in society, “The man does not know that the women’s formation of women is very different from it.” He explained by saying: “The nomads remains a sexual prepared always unlike the woman who needs to be prepared.Present at the female at the time. ”.

The psychiatrist added that, despite the criminalization of marital violence and rape, “However, the man also thinks that he has the right to violate his wife in the sexual relations with the justification that she is in his ownership, which is what brings us to an insult to the woman who in turn, insulting herself by submitting to that taunting and rape, justified that I love my husband.”.Before mentioning in this context the issue of marriage of minors, who described him as rape, "It is unreasonable to marry a minor girl who does not understand sexual life or marital life and is forced to marry a man who grows up.".

Mabrouki offered another causes that are no less important than the rest of the causes of marital rape, which is pornographic films, stressing that the biggest danger in it is that it is not related to reality but rather fictional and depends on acting and the woman’s things.“Pointing out that the man when he watches these films“ tries to apply them, and some of them are difficult to penetrate from the anus, and when his wife refuses to resort to violence and rape without her desire, ”according to the writer and psychiatrist’s expression.

Criticism of my human rights

Human Rights Watch, through the Women's Rights Department, had contacted the Chairman of the House of Advisors, Hakim Benchemash, responding to Bill No. 103-13 regarding fighting violence against women, which the government ratified in March last year, considering that it is "very limitedIn terms of the nature of the crimes committed against one of the spouses, which can result in penalties..

The international organization stopped in this when marital rape, which said that the draft law did not address it, stressing that the United Nations recommends that laws explicitly state that “sexual violence against an intimate partner (what is usually known as marital rape) is a form of family violence”And calling for the necessity of adding this recommendation to the revised draft law.
