Muslim man abducted, forcibly converted, married 12-year-old girl
A Muslim in Pakistan abducted and forcibly converted and married a 12-year-old Christian girl as police delayed efforts to recover her, reports Morning Star News.
Parveen Shaukat, a Catholic widow and mother to eight children, said that Muhammad Asad abducted her youngest daughter, Fairy Shaukat, from the Kasur District of Punjab Province, on August 9th.
She said, “Fairy had gone to a nearby shop to buy groceries in the afternoon, but she did not return home. We then filed a complaint with the police, but instead of helping us, they delayed the registration of a First Information Report.”
She said that a neighbor later informed the family that he had seen Asad abduct Fairy.
The mother explained, “We informed the police about the accused, but they still did not take any action, giving sufficient time to Asad to convert the minor child and contract an Islamic marriage with her.
She said, “On August 13th, my sons received the Nikahnama [Islamic marriage certificate] of Fairy through WhatsApp from an unknown number. We were shocked to see the document and urged the police to take action against this underage marriage. When the police finally raided the house of the accused, he was not there. It’s nearly 20 days now that I haven’t seen my child, and we have no information about her safety.”
The mother said, “Fairy is just 12 years old. He targeted my child for sexual exploitation, and my heart sinks every time I think of how she is being treated in captivity.”
The family contacted Christian attorney Sumera Shafique for legal aid who filed a petition in the Lahore High Court for the child’s recovery. The attorney said, “It’s very unfortunate that police delay action in cases involving underage minority girls, which allows the perpetrators to scar these children for life.”
Isaiah 59:7 says, “Their feet rush into sin … They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.”
Please pray that 12-year-old Fairy Shaukat is found quickly and returned to her family. And pray that her Muslim abductor, Muhammad Asad, would be brought to justice.
Pakistan is the 7th most dangerous country worldwide in which to be a Christian.
Trump spokeswoman: “Kamala is not candidate of change”
Appearing on CNN, Karoline Leavitt, the Trump Campaign National Press Secretary, compared and contrasted Kamala Harris with Donald Trump.
Listen.
LEAVITT: “Kamala Harris is not the candidate of change nor is she the candidate of the future. Kamala Harris is the vice president of the United States right now, and she is wholly responsible for the failures over the past four years.
“Kamala Harris said she was proud of Bidenomics, which ushered in the worst inflation crisis in a generation. Kamala Harris was named the Border Czar and has allowed an open border policy of more than 11 million illegal people into our country, that has caused a migrant crime epidemic across our nation, as well.
“Kamala Harris does not deserve a promotion. She deserves a demotion. And, unlike Kamala Harris, President Trump has a strong record in his first term as president, where he secured the border, unleashed the might of our energy industry, and ushered in peace around the world. And that’s our case to make to voters across the country.”
J.D. Vance: Kamala’s electric vehicle mandates will cripple economy
Last Wednesday, Republican Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance held a rally in Erie, Pennsylvania. He explained how Kamala Harris’ blind promotion of electric vehicles will further crater the American economy.
VANCE: “If you think groceries are bad, wait until Kamala Harris makes every American trucker drive an electric truck. If you think car prices are bad, wait until Kamala Harris makes everybody buy a Chinese-made electric vehicle. If you think housing prices are bad, wait until Kamala Harris makes it impossible for our truckers to get construction materials to the building site. Kamala Harris’s policies are a disaster ladies and gentlemen, not just for truckers, but for everybody who relies upon them which is everybody.”
Kamala Harris forgot the name of the Supreme Court
Vice President Kamala Harris offered up another word salad during a campaign speech in Savannah, Georgia. She literally forgot the name of the highest court in the land.
Listen.
HARRIS: “The United States Supreme — Supreme Land — of our Nation — the United States Constitution.”
Christian talk show host Todd Starnes said, “For the record, it’s called the Supreme Court of the United States, ma’am. Many are now wondering if Kamala will have to use the kiddy stairs to board Air Force One.”
Reagan movie explores his Christian faith
And finally, tonight is the debut of a new movie on the silver screen simply called “Reagan” starring Christian actor Dennis Quaid as the 40th President of the United States.
QUAID: “There’s nothing a retired governor can do about the Soviets, but a president, now he can do a thing or two.”
CONSULTANT: “What would you say is the issue of our time?”
QUAID: “No question about it: Communism and the Soviet Union.”
CONSULTANT: “Get in the game. Run for office.”
The movie features his marriage to Nancy, portrayed by Penelope Ann Miller.
MILLER: “Hello. I’m Nancy Davis.”
QUAID: “Hello, Nancy Davis. I’m Ron Reagan.”
The film is told through the voice of Viktor Petrovich, a former KGB agent portrayed by Jon Voight, whose life becomes inextricably linked with Ronald Reagan’s when Reagan first caught the Soviets’ attention as an actor in Hollywood.
Dennis Quaid brings to life a story that transcends the boundaries of a traditional biopic, offering a profound exploration of the enduring impact of the power of one man who overcame the odds, sustained by the love of a woman who supported him in his journey.
QUAID: “What would you have me do?”
MILLER: “I want you to fight.”
Notably, Reagan went toe-to-toe with the Soviet Union President Mikhail Gorbachev.
QUAID: “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!”
The movie traces Reagan’s life from childhood all the way to his departure from the public limelight following his Alzheimer’s diagnosis. And it doesn’t shy away from his Christian faith and how God used singer Pat Boone in Reagan’s spiritual journey, reports The Christian Post.
REAGAN: “By dying for us, Jesus showed how far our love should be ready to go — all the way. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)
The president offered an insightful perspective about God.
REAGAN: “We must be cautious in claiming God is on our side. I think the real question we must answer is: ‘Are we on His side?’”
