“Sizga yetkazilgan maxfiy memorandum shuni ko‘rsatadiki, Tramp Oq uyi Davlat departamenti tomonidan musulmonlar ko‘pchilikni tashkil etadigan dunyoda “Islomiy islohot”ni targ‘ib qilish va bunga ayollar hamda yoshlarni yetakchi qilib qo‘yish bo‘yicha maslahat olgan. [...] Islom ta’siri ostidagi dunyoda ayollarning huquqlarini kuchaytirishni asosiy axborot maqsadi sifatida ko‘rish Amerika Qo‘shma Shtatlariga Amerika kuchining axloqiy tarkibiy qismini va uning “ozodlik” hikoyasini saqlab qolish imkonini beradi.”42

“A leaked memo shows that the Trump White House was advised by the State Department to promote an ‘Islamic Reformation’ and to use women and young people in the Muslim majority world to front it. [...] Focusing on female-empowerment as the primary information messaging goal within the Islamic-influenced world will allow the United States to maintain a moral component for American power and its liberation narrative.”42

Ayollar va yoshlarga e'tibor qaratib, musulmon dunyosini nazorat qilish va Islomni buzib ko'rsatish yangilik emas. O'tgan bir necha yuz yil davomida bu mustamlakachilarning asosiy strategiyasi bo'lib kelgan, nafaqat musulmon dunyosida, balki Mahalliy Amerikada, Avstraliyaning mahalliy aholisi orasida, Xitoyda va boshqa joylarda ham.

Focusing on women and youth to control the Muslim world and distort Islam is not new. It has always been the central strategy of colonizers, not only in the Muslim world, but also Native America, aboriginal Australia, China, etc. for the past few hundred years.

Kolonizatorlar, masalan, lord Kromer va boshqalar, aynan shu da'voga urg'u berishgan: Yevropa qadriyatlari va Yevropalik erkaklar musulmon ayollarini ozod qilish uchun kelgan, islomiy qadriyatlar va musulmon erkaklar esa ayollarni qamoqqa solgan, ularni zulm qilgan va bo'ysundirgan. Ular islom huquqini ayollar huquqlarini qabul qilish uchun isloh qilish zarur, deb ta'kidlashgan. Birinchi navbatda, musulmon ayollar "erkin" bo'lish uchun hijobni yechib tashlab, Yevropa ayollari kabi kiyinishlari kerak edi. Ikkinchidan, ayollar eri, otasi yoki erkak olimining har qanday erkaklik hokimiyatini rad etishi va unga qarshi turishi lozim edi. Bundan tashqari, "vahshiy" ko'pxotinlilik instituti bekor qilinishi kerak edi. Musulmon ayollar "uy mashaqqatlari"dan voz kechib, ishchi kuchiga qo'shilishni talab qilishlari lozim edi, bu esa qulay ravishda kolonizatorlar uchun arzon va osongina almashtiriladigan ishchilarga aylanish degani edi. Bundan tashqari, akademik asarlarda keng hujjatlashtirilgan yana ko'p narsalar bor. Bu ko'p qirrali hujumning asosiy maqsadi musulmon oilasini yo'q qilish edi. Kolonizatorlar islom va ummaning muhim, markaziy institutini, ya'ni mustahkam va birlashgan musulmon oilasini yo'q qilishni maqsad qilgan, xotinlarni erlariga, qizlarni otalariga, opa-singillarni akalariga qarshi qo'yib, asta-sekin musulmon ommasi ustidan to'liq nazorat va hokimiyatni qo'lga kiritmoqchi bo'lishgan. Reja doim shu bo'lgan.

Colonizers like Lord Cromer and others specifically focused on the claim that European values and European men came to empower Muslim women while Islamic values and Muslim men imprisoned women, abused them, subjugated them. They argued that Islamic law needs reform in order to accommodate women’s rights. First and foremost, Muslim women must take off hijab and dress like European women to be “free.” Second, women have to refuse and resist any and all male authority, whether the husband’s’, the father’s, or the male scholar’s. Furthermore, the “barbaric” institution of polygyny must be abolished. Muslim women must insist on leaving “domestic drudgery” and joining the workforce, which conveniently meantbecoming cheap, dispensable laborers for the colonizers. And much more that has been meticulously documented in many academic works. The ultimate purpose of this multi-pronged attack was to destroy the Muslim family. The colonizers aimed to destroy that critical, central institution of Islam and the Ummah, which is the strong, cohesive Muslim family, pitting wives against husbands, daughters against fathers, sisters against brothers, to slowly but surely gain complete control of and authority over the Muslim masses. This has always been the plan.

Bularning barchasi "ayollar huquqlarini kuchaytirish" degan shior ostida amalga oshirildi. So'nggi bir necha asr davomida shunday taqdim etilgan. Shu sababli an'anani ag'darishga va Shariatni isloh qilishga chaqirayotgan musulmon feministlar mustamlakachilar va imperialistlarning ishini shunchaki davom ettirmoqda. Shu sababli feminist bo'lish va bir vaqtning o'zida "dekolonial" yoki "imperializmga qarshi" bo'lish ziddiyatli gap.

All this was done under the mantra of “female empowerment.” That’s how it was marketed for the last couple of centuries. This is why Muslim feminists with their calls to upturn the tradition and reform the Sharia are simply advancing the work of colonizers and imperialists. This is why it is a contradiction in terms to be a feminist and “decolonial” or “anti-imperialist” at the same time.

Mening ko'pincha tanqidchilarim tomonidan feminizm va uning faolligiga "ruju qo'ygan" deb ayblanaman. Xo'sh, Islomga hujumning asosiy yo'nalishi ayollar masalalari orqali amalga oshirilayotgani mening aybim emas, buni Trampning Davlat departamenti sizdirilgan memorandumida aniq ko'rsatgan. Men bu muhim masalaga e'tibor bermay, dushmanlarga Ummatni erkin ravishda yeyishiga yo'l qo'ymayman. Men AQShdagi islohotchi musulmon guruhlarning yashirin faoliyatini va ular "musulmon ayollarini kuchaytirish" uchun AQSh hukumatidan yuz minglab dollar olayotganini ko'p marta batafsil yozganman. Ko'pchilik nima uchun AQSh hukumati kichik musulmon tashkilotlariga shunchalik katta mablag' ajratayotganini so'raydi. Mana, javob: bu imperialistlarning qarashlari asosida Islomni isloh qilish keng ko'lamli rejasining bir qismi. Ushbu islohotchi va feminist tashkilotlar shunchaki ularning g'ayratli agentlari bo'lib, masjidlarimiz, islomiy maktablarimiz va boshqa joylarimizga faol ravishda kirib olishga urinmoqda.

I am often accused by detractors of being “obsessed” with feminism and its activism. Well, it’s not my fault that the main path of attack on Islam is through women’s issues, as good ol Trump’s State Department made clear in the leaked memo. I, for one, am not going to sit back and ignore this critical issue and let enemies feast on the Ummah unimpeded. I have often detailed the nefarious activities of Muslim reformist group in the US and how they are receiving hundreds of thousands of dollars from the US government to advance “Muslim women’s empowerment.” Many wonder why the US government would pump so much money to help out small Muslim orginizations. Well, here is your answer. It is all part of the overarching plan to reform Islam according to the vision of imperialists. These reformist and feminist orgs are simply their enthusiastic agents aggressively trying to infiltrate our masjids, Islamic schools, etc.
