FGM, or cutting, as it is also sometimes known, is the removal of the external female genitalia. The procedure has no health benefits, but can cause great harm and serious health complications for those who undergo the procedure. Besides causing severe pain, the practice has immediate and long-term consequences for the health of women and girls, including complications during childbirth, which could endanger the lives of both mother and child.
Through this animation, Al Jazeera takes the reader on a journey to understand how the cycle of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) continues: following a girl who undergoes FGM as she grows up and becomes a mother and chooses, like her mother and grandmother before her, to perform FGM on her baby daughter.

But why
Bokachoda gulo ka arom kora uchit
A baghoban save of girls 🙏
I am feeling really really bad thinking of girls who underwent this practice…… why do they even allow them to do this…… you better kill them
Islam culture 🐷🐷🐷🤣🤣🤣
potato its african
@@whydontyoustfu its sunnah in islam
Sadists
What dah hec is this!!
Those that make girls go through fgm ate satan worshipping sadists
Well, someone ask jakir nayek, he has better clarification
Where did this come from like what started this vile practice
Then what’s the problem to the West….. It’s our islamic culture don’t interfere in that
It’s not Islamic culture 😑
Your islamic culture is itself the problem.
Where did islamic culture came in you’re not a Muslim are you.Islam doesn’t have any culture not FGM is practiced in the religion
It is very cruel tradition. Ban Ban Ban the FGM
It’s very common in
Old times
But now people updated nah saying noo 🤦
There is positive for FGM too
POSITIVE FOR MGM too
It’s really a non-issue. It’s banned everywhere and the only thing to do now is enforce the bans. But ofc male circumcision is allowed to run rampant without any ban whatsoever.
Does Qatar legally allow female genital mutilation?
It’s shameful if india allows female genital mutation.
There should be banned by law.
I pray that nature keep on answering to your callings as you have cured my herpes virus with natural supplements Dr Madida. I am so happy for being well again with their herbal supplements.
Half information.Irrelevemt!
Its so barbaric and so horrible
Fgm like mother like daughter
Look morons you can’t ban female circumcision but keep male circumcision legal, you either ban both of them or make them both legal.
no one is for religious and medical reasons the second is just barbary
@@fancyturtle647 What about Islam? They think FGM is sunnah. And would religion justify FGM to you? No of course not but Islam and Rabbinic Judaism practice it and they are more familiar to you so you think its ok. And what “medical” reasons? Only like less than 1% or so in sane countries that dont circumcise actually need to be circumcised.
Herbal medicine can permanently eradicate herpes virus from the body system Dr Ayomede has the best herbal treatment
no
Al Jazeera secretly supports and believes in this barbaric practice! Muslim men see women as dirt and treat them as slaves!!
no?
This horrible and inhuman
It’s very shocking, and why people are so dumb even,
And the cycle continues is the worst sentence I have heard in this video, education and thinking correct practices is the only way people can get out of it
Wtf does FGM even do
What’s the reason? I just found out about this on housewives. Like.. religious? Sexual? I’m literally sick now that I looked this up🤦🏽♂️😢
Wow. It’s disgusting the things that we let them do to us just because they tell us it’s for our good.
Many are young girls. I heard as young as 6. They are brought by the parents. The young girls are told it will make them a woman. The young girls have no real understanding. It’s normal to their culture. They’re looked at as dirty if they don’t have fgm.
This is a horrible and unjust procedure that must stop.
I’m glad women have spoken up and are doing something.
@@centouri Can you shut up about that? This is a video about women’s problems, go comment this on something else about a man’s issues
@@i_have_no_idea889The only places where they cut females is in West Africa, Central Africa, the horn of Africa, the Mideast, and then there are only a few that do it elsewhere. Male circumcision is almost everywhere in Africa, each other muslim country, the Us, South Korea, and then there are the countries like Canada and Australia that have like 20% circumcision rate. Stop whining.
@@yourlocalyoutubecommenter but this is a video about women’s problems. If you wanna talk about male circumcision, go to a video about that. And btw, Somalia has a 98 percent rate
@@yourlocalyoutubecommenterIt’s completely different. Female genital mutilation is done with the intent of reducing or even eliminating female sexual desire. They’re not comparable.
‘Heartbreaking.’
IGNORANT AF!!!!!!
Lol this is true equality.
Wtf
All done in the crazy name of religion youre nice and clean now sorry that youre gonna suffer excruciating pain for the rest of your life and that youll be mentally screwed for the rest of your life
Quite hypocritical how the use mary and not Fathima or aisha.. Ridiculous aljazeera
Dude stop being an idiot.Mary is also a name in Islam
Why don’t the men demand this change,,? Because all they think about is gratification of their punishment. Sick sick sick culture
You realize males’ genitals are also cut in the same places as fgm right? But it has far less publicity than the FGm there as its “normal”
Men have been going through this year’s and years. Why isn’t it called male mutilation?
Shh Feminism 🤫
Islamic world practice this evil act.
How did Islam came in It occurs in Africa.
Parents need to be better role models for their daughters by not doing fgm,monkey see monkey do
darrrrreeellll
And there’s people saying we have to respect all cultures… no tf we don’t
There are cannibalistic cultures too.They are crude and should be changed but they are doing it from centuries so they aren’t gonna change
Same with mgm
Allahu Akbar. It’s prescribed in Islam. Islam is the best religion for women.These people are misleading.
Thus it is clear that female circumcision is prescribed in Islam, and that it is one of the Sunnahs of the fitrah and it has a good effect of moderating the individual’s behaviour. As for the opinions of doctors who say that female circumcision is harmful, these are individual opinions which are not derived from any agreed scientific basis, and they do not form an established scientific opinion. …”
Fatwa of Dar al-Ifta’ al-Misriyyah (1986)
Circumcise but do not go too far, for thus it is better for appearance and gives more pleasure to the husband”. This is the female circumcision which is desirable in Islam. Other forms such as that known among us as the Pharaonic are mutilations and mutilations are categorically forbidden.”
The Mufti of Sudan (1939) – cited in ‘Male and female circumcision: Religious, medical, social and legal debate‘ by Sami A. Aldeeb Abu-Sahlieh
Islam has allowed WOMEN CIRCUMCISION . Muhammed has even praised it.The Bukhari Sharif hadiths considers female circumcision as one of the acts of fitra (human acts inspired by God) like the removal of pubic hair, trimming the moustache, removing armpit hair and shortening nails.
Fgm is deadly no to fgm
Mummy did fgm on me so now ill do it to my daughter too talk about monkey see monkey do
meanwhile in the US…
😱😡🤬🤬
Which religion do this bro… that’s disgusting
Its so sick,these poor girls,its just pure barbarism,plain and simple its child abuse no to fgm forever
I mean we chemically castrate prisoners not much different.
Islam 🤢
It is written in the Hadiths to do this for those who didn’t know
Islam is the biggest practicing religion of this thing but still the girl is named marry are you for real BS Al jazeera
They r not mothers they r monsters and wicked
Sick custom its just sick,people who perform it belong in a mental home
That’s why UNIFORM CIVIL CODE is extremely essential 😡😡😡
Abey ch*** kya bol raha hai 😂
Confused Generation….how about boy’s who are cut and what’s the different to that of girls?
No to fgm,no to the heartbreak and misery that fgm carries
This is mostly practiced by muzlims across the world to stop women from having the pleasure during the act of baby making. It started with questioning the chastity of women in izlam. Al Jazeera conveniently skipped this information and instead named the main character as Mary a non muzlim (which of course is not at all needed in such videos). Al Jazeera is media version of al qaeda conveniently white washes the crimes done by peaceful community across the world/
But what are they cutting? Parts? What Parts? This is horrible, but the video did not really give much information.
Hey not my problem if it exists here lmao goodluck.
MGM is just as wrong.
“But happens to men too 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 and it’s much worse”.
Shut up. I agree MGM is wrong but we’re not talking about that now. Shut and cope.
@@kirin-6202 You really got into an aneuryism just because he said mgm was wrong.
Ayoooo W tf
This is utterly ridiculous.why do only men have right to enjoy the intercourse while woman has to suffer this amount of pain😣
20% of worldwide males are circumcised. They suffer *more* genital mutilation than females.
Stop calling child abuse a tradition, child abuse is child abuse and it always will be, “FGM is a rite of passage into womanhood” more like death of so many woman who have been mutilated and suffered a lot from it
I respect other cultures and traditions, but this is just barbaric and evil. It should stop.
FGM was legal in the US until the 70s. MGM is still legal.
Male circumcision has health benefits and perfectly fine
@@ozgur7291 You are in deep need of education and possibly therapy.
@@ozgur7291a person should have full automony of themselves
@@anarchisttutor7423maybe you should reconsider your position on MGM
R they mothers or demon??.. why they are doing this
Aww 🥺 poor Mary
Fgm is insane in the membrane no to fgm
Educate dont mutilate
“Desert Flower” 😭
Sickening. God didn’t say to do this.
why-
Mutilation 😏😏😏how you do?
still didn’t find out what FGM is.
Wait till you learn about breast ironing
This is Islam
wtf is the advantage?
Why does nobody native to Europe do this?
If you de-flower your daughters, you killed her. If you de-flower your woman, she will never be a flower for you.
Are you a King?
Then is she your Queen?
Is she your God’s daughter?
There is a theory, that the Jews circumcised their men, and others made a religion against them, so to end it they whispered in an idea “Greek them to command their woman to be circumcised.” That’ll end the death warrant against them die what they did to other nations, no more Islam. Say”Hey honey, we’ve been dating now, I know you’re 24, but it’s like to marry you, we just got to cut the Murray saved pleasurable part of your body off, I say I love you…”
She’d say “You want to cut the Guilt Bell of My Guilt Treble and make me a hole for you?!?” No way
But they took it literally and forcibly do this murder if soul to their 12 year old daughters
How dare u hand over an innocent child so they can do that
This practice is of demonic religion or culture such as Islam. No excuse this is not a command from a loving God but a sick perverted wicked men that want to torture and control woman and young girls
facts.
interesting how females are defended but not males (((wonder))) what could be causing this ? really makes you think huh?
Lots of males are defended. And this is still happening to women.
Why are you cutting my parts out ?
‘Well dear, because that’s just the way it’s always been’. 😐
Male circumcision is also a form of genital mutilation.
Can you shut up about that? This is a video about women’s problems, go comment this on something else about a man’s issues.
@@centouri just say you’re gay brother, it’s alright, we’ll support you.
@@centouri you seem to have a dislike for women, so I’m guessing you’re into men, and that’s okay.
I feel so bad for these poor girls WE NEED TO END FGM my heart goes out to these suffering girls 😢❤
But this same tradition is done to males in muslim countries too
Can you shut up about that? This is a video about women’s problems, go comment this on something else about a man’s issues
I couldn’t finish this video. I just couldn’t
And the victim perpetuates the atrocity on it’s own children.
Omg why mother letting do this to there daughter
I could say this as God’s failure to their sects for making their typical ‘perfect’ women.
As a muslim, isolating them like Rohingya’s lair is an Obligation to make Islam free from this weird cultural BDSM
What the west does not include in the narrative 1. the different types of circumcision 2. most of these women WANT to undergo circumcision. 3. these women seldomly have a voice of their own on a global-scale. This is a textbook example of western imperialism/colonialism to standardize contemporary beliefs globally. Americans once again are telling other cultures what is morally-acceptable. Yet, here in the United States, it is perfectly normal to receive cosmetic surgeries, to include vaginal organization, piercings, botox, BBL etc. Open your mind to cross-cultural differences and presuppose that you may not understand norms of another culture.
Insane. Selfish so only men feel. God never said to do this
These are the same places where they circumcise males. So both genders are mutilated. They wonder why the West looks down on them.
Muslim also perform it
In the West we have no Idear just how common and popular this outdated and in Islamic practice is. 💔💔 💪💪💪💪💪🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
💔
What is male genital mutilation?
I*lam is poison
Israel hospitals had to take many gazans girls in to save them from the savagery of fgm performed by idiots in gaza.
Peaceful Community doing Peaceful things.
It happens right here in the US and also in European countries. Epstein subjected his slaves to it in Florida. Little infants are subjected to it in Paris, France before they are trafficked and abused on camera. It’s a global issue. Pimps of a European background have been using it to keep their victims dissociated.
retardation of the highest order
