Imam Divorces Eighth wife After she Catches him red-Handed with Minor Inside Mosque
An imam from Punjab has divorced his eighth wife after she caught him red-handed sodomizing a minor inside the mosque in Burewala city of Punjab.
Mussarat Bibi, who hails from neighboring Habib Colony, was married to Qari Muhammad Aslam some 15 years ago.
Aslam is an imam at Gulshan Raza Town mosque and an Arabic teacher at the city’s Govt. MC Model High School.
Mussarat told the media that she was his fifth wife, but Aslam “who can’t overcome his lust for sex” married two more women without her consent under the pretext of “giving them shelter”.
Both the other women were divorced by Aslam, but Mussarat stayed with him due to her poor finances.
Two months ago, however, she caught him red-handed while sodomizing a madrassa student inside the mosque where Aslam teaches. She was badly beaten by the imam who threatened her to keep her mouth shut over the sexual abuse.
Although the woman kept mum about the immoral act, Aslam divorced her five days later.
Mussarat says she reached Model Town Police Station and filed a complaint against him, but no legal action has been taken so far.
She further maintains that Aslam is involved in usury (Ribah or Sood which is strictly prohibited in Islam); and has made millions with several properties in the city.
In his defense, Qari Aslam stated that he did not carry out any unIslamic acts by marrying multiple women because “Islam allows a man to marry as many wives as he can afford.”
Aslam told the media that he had divorced Mussarat for other reasons: “she blackmailed me and wanted to occupy my property”.
He also denied sodomizing a minor and other allegations.
