Circumcision is obligatory in Islam (
e4.3) by order of Mohamed (see

Chapter: Regarding circumcision
Narrated Umm Atiyyah al-Ansariyyah:
A woman used to perform circumcision in Medina. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to her: Do not cut severely as that is better for a woman and more desirable for a husband. Abu Dawud said: It has been transmitted by 'Ubaid Allah b. 'Amr from 'Abd al-Malik to the same effect through a different chain. Abu Dawud said: It is not a strong tradition. It has been transmitted in mursal form (missing the link of the Companions) Abu Dawud said: Muhammad b. Hasan is obscure, and this tradition is weak. - Sahih:Abu Dawud:5271 (islam)
-If Mohamed recognizes that it is better for the woman, why don't he ban it?
- How could he know it's better for the husband, is it because of the tedious work of opening the infibulated wife on the night of the wedding (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_genital_mutilation#Type_III)?
- Do you how what infibulation means?
- Is it about closing shut a woman vagina with a sowing kit, so she is guaranteed to be a virgin?
- Is it done at 6 years all?
- Is it prevalent in Somalia and not that uncommon in Egypt?
- Will you verify as Allah command you to do when an unbeliever tell you something?
Chapter: What Has Been Related: When The Two Circumcised Organs Meet, Ghusl Is Required.
Aishah narrated:
"When the circumcised meets the circumcised, then indeed Ghusl is required. Myself and Allah's Messenger did that, so we performed Ghusl." - Sahih:Tirmidhi:108 (islam)
Circumcision is obligatory (0: for both men and women. For men it consists of removing the prepuce from the penis, and for women, removing the prepuce (Ar. bazr) of the clitoris (n:
not the clitoris itself, as some mistakenly assert).
(A: Hanbalis hold that circumcision of women is not obligatory but sunna, whileHanafis consider it a mere courtesy to the husband.) - Fiqh:Umdat:e4.3 (islam)
