Muslim Woman Beats Her Son to Death for Failing to Memorize the Koran, Gets 17+ Years Behind Bars

Sara Ege Sentenced to 17+ Years After Killing Son Over Koran Memorization

LONDON (TheBlaze/AP) — A British judge on Monday sentenced a woman he called a “devoted and loving mother” to at least 17 years in prison for beating her son to death after he failed to memorize passages from the Koran — in a shocking conclusion to a case that has made international headlines.

A jury at Cardiff Crown Court in Wales convicted 33-year-old Sara Ege last month of murdering 7-year-old Yaseen and burning his body to destroy the evidence.

Judge Wyn Williams said Ege beat Yaseen repeatedly with a stick over several months, causing internal injuries.

He said that, on the day he died in 2010, Yaseen had been kept home from school to memorize verses from the Muslim holy book, and that his failure “was the trigger for the beating” that killed him.

The judge agreed with defense arguments about India-born Ege’s state of mind, saying she was “a devoted and loving mother” who suffered from depression and had been a victim of domestic violence.

Still, he said, she subjected her son to “prolonged cruelty.”

Ege admitted killing her son in a confession taped by police, but later retracted it and blamed her husband, Yousef. He was tried and acquitted on a charge of failing to prevent his son’s death.

Ege sobbed as the judge passed sentence. Williams said the 2 1/2 years she had spent in secure psychiatric units since her arrest would count toward her 17-year minimum sentence.

Islam should be outlawed. It is no religion. It is a culture that has no place in the free World.

  Agree. When a religion insists upon a separate set of laws from those of a country’s Constitution, that religion should not be allowed in said country . This is absolute insanity. A country can not function with two different sets of laws. WAKE UP .

  Come now, Islam is a peaceful religion. At least that’s what we’re told every time Muslims blow up buildings, slice the heads off of innocent victims, beat their children to death, stone women who report being raped, start rioting after someone insults the Qur’an, etc., etc., etc.

  “Muslim Woman Beats Her Son to Death for Failing to Memorize the Koran, Gets 17+ Years Behind Bars … “devoted and loving mother” ”
  
  Is there anything else you need to know about ISLAM?
  Well, yes, actually there is:
  
  http://www.endtime.com/blog/2-billion-to-die-in-world-war-3/
  “2 Billion to Die in World War 3 … ‘And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for TO SLAY THE THIRD PART OF MEN.’ (Revelation 9:15) … This time, there won’t be 8.2 million dead [WW1]. There won’t be 52 million dead [WW2]. This time 2 BILLION human beings will be annihilated from the face of the earth! We are talking about 40 times the fatalities of World War II! … According to Revelation 9:14, the prophesied war will originate from the area of the Euphrates River [all ISLAMIC dominated territory!]. The Euphrates River is located in Iraq, Turkey, Syria, and Iran.
  
  “When will it happen?
  
  “According to the biblical prophetic timeline given in scripture, four major prophetic fulfillments will occur at approximately the same time.
  * The international community’s adoption of a peace plan for the Middle East
  * The building of Israel’s temple on the Temple Mount
  * Preparations being made for the implementation of the mark of the beast
  * The Euphrates River War”

  woodyee. he said set of laws. which a birth control mandate in obama care, which is law, has drawn public protest from christians. Also gay marriage legalization.. now that thats settled, if we want to go constitution. by biblical law the freedom of religion is against christian code, the following amendments also met staunch opposition by christian groups. 11th, 13th, 14th, 19th, and 21st

  Islam should not be outlawed. Because Islam is an organization that has as a principle objective the fundamental alteration of civil law, Islam should be accorded the status of a political party.

  That woman is a weirdo, no doubt, and deserves every bit of those 17 years; but the post here, from p4cooler, that I am responding to demonstrates the fanatical trend of Beck followers. The rising numbers and absurdity of these kind of posts is why I have disassociated myself from Beck. They don’t represent me and I don’t want to be associated with them.

coming to america soon, obama is seeing to that, remember he said that no one should speak badly of mohammad when the attacked benghazi he blamed on the video, so he will do every thing in his power to force christianity out of america { with the help of the u.n., media and the atheist } and force america to become a muslim country, so honor killings,rape,beating,no women’s rights and everything sharia will be the rule,better get use to it,if not we will all be jailed or killed.

  You can always become a dhminni , a second class citizen which means you pay a tax, can’t hold public office or have certain jobs or do any repairs to your church, and move aside when a Muslim passes. So, you aren’t going to jail or be killed. You have choices–be killed, convert or be a second class citizen. All 56 Mulism nations practice sharia, it is only a matter of how much they chose to enforce sharia. Sharia is an entire code of life from what you wear to loaning money. Every aspect of your life is controlled so those who state “bring it on,” do more research on shari . You’ll soon view sharia quite differently & not joke about it.

  It will happen slowly. The saying “birds of a feather flock together” apply here. They will congregate in a specific town, take over the local politics and will institute sharia law just for their community. It will flourish from there. I have read that it has happened in parts of London. They and the Marxists / Communists are using our freedoms to destroy us from within. Just my opinion.

Such a difference between the Bible and the Koran. This woman tortured her son over many months before he died. If she follows the Koran, shouldn’t she be stoned to death?

The woman ” was the victim of domestic abuse.” Of, course, she was a Muslim woman ! Just passing on all of that ” love” she had been taught by her religion and provided by her devoted Muslim husband.

Oh to be more like the Muslims. They are such a model of peace, love and parenthood. Not the evil, maniacal hatemongers that the Cons wrongly make them out to be. I just can’t wait until Sharia becomes the law of the land here in America.

I think I’m going to be sick now.
