I Wanna Spread Islam The Truth

According to the Sharee'ah (Islamic law), there is no legal adoption. It is prohibited for a person to legally adopt a son or a daughter of whom he is not the biological father.

Thanks for telling me this. Years ago, I made the mistake of telling my Islamic neighbor I had been adopted. He freaked out! He told me I was a terrible person because I had never been properly raised since "no one can bring himself to punish a child who is not his own!" He said, "God forbids such things!"
Later, he threatened to kill me because I was a blight on the neighborhood....I used to have to run from him everyday. Sometimes he would bang on my door screaming, "I'm going to kill you!" I called the police and they said, "We can't help you because he hasn't done anything." When I pointed out that this neighbor had repeatedly threatened to kill me, the policeman said, "Then call us when you're dead."

@abe182 Great dialogue on the part of the cops, though.

@greenmountaingal Geez what a horrible experience but I don't think they all believe that same thing. I knew a lady in Morocco who was Muslim who adopted a baby. Sounds like the man was backwards.

@cherokeepatti Or someone from my mother's group sent to harass me....maybe....

@greenmountaingal Wow, they would do that to you?

@cherokeepatti (Have you read my featured story?) So far, they have done nearly everything to me over the years. However, I do admit that in this case, I am not so sure. It might just be bad luck in having a bad neighbor. He beat his wife so often and so much that as she fled to a taxicab, she would leave bloody footprints on the steps and sidewalk. He attacked an old woman across the street and put her in the hospital; he served 3 months in the County jail for that.

@greenmountaingal No I haven't. I think you got a fanatic if he calls himself Muslim. Maybe they don't allow adoptions in some of the Arab countries. Ironically some of those countries have so many cousin marriages that birth defects are high, serious birth defects, seems they are cursing themselves by keep doing that.

@greenmountaingal We got a Make My Day Law, if he tried that crap in my neighborhood there are a few that have carried conceal-permits and would take his ass out.
