Fathwa, - Female genital mutilation and the Koran

Question:
Are female genital mutilation and honor killing 2 practices that are
in any way advocated, condoned, or tolerated by Islam and the Koran?
Answer:
In the name of Allah Most Merciful Most Compassionate
I pray you are well and in the best of health and iman.
Absolutely not. As for female genital mutilation if the girl knew who
did this to her, she could sue that person for damages even if it was
after she had grown up.
As for honor killing, this must go through the courts, the Sacred Law
doesn't give individuals the right to kill someone like this and if
they do so, then they have committed a major sin and should be taken
to court for it. And Allah alone gives success.
