Female Muslim Teacher Quits Amid Accusations That She Is A Man
AT the Al-Islah Muslim Girl’s School, Audley Range, Blackburn, a school administrator has quit her job after an e-mail campaign claimed she was a man.
The school sent a letter to parents saying they had “irrefutable medical evidence” Shifa Patel “was a female” despite “concerns raised by parents” over her gender.
Ms Patel wears a hijab and full Jhaba (full length robe). The emails circulated among parents contained private photographs of Ms Patel with short hair and wearing a shirt and trousers.
Says Ms Patel:
“The people who have done this have hurt me so badly. I will remember them at the moment before I die and I never forgive those who did this to me.”
Cripes! But how can she prove them wrong? Dopes Facebook accept, you know, those kind of pictures?
Says headteacher Fatima Patel:
“It is very disconcerting that this has all happened during children’s exam time. When some parents approached me I said to them I will take the Quran in my hand and swear to tell the truth.
“But they were more concerned with getting a GP’s certificate for Shifa. What does that say about some people? This incident has affected me and Shifa and it will take a lot to get her confidence back. We must add that some parents have come and supported us.”
No names are provided, and some remain under a, er, cloak of anonymity…
