In the US prison at Guantanamo, despite various calls for a halt to humiliating and degrading treatment of inmates, such acts continue. In the latest development, US appeals court judges are questioning the need for genital searches of prisoners before meeting their lawyers. At a hearing of a three-judge panel of the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, Judge Thomas Griffith said that checking the prisoners\' private parts was both provocative and offensive. Griffith then cited the detainees\' right to have easy access to their lawyers as a legal obligation of the court. Some of the prisoners have decided not to meet their lawyers because genital searches were required beforehand. Meanwhile, another US appeals court is reviewing whether it is necessary to force-feed hunger-striking prisoners, an act which some people describe as torture.

This Madrasa course will be called beginners and not specified for any age group. This is the case because based on feedback we have adults and reverts who also did not have the opportunity to learn Islam at a young age.
The course will have worksheets and quizzes to test your progress and knowledge. Be sure to enroll for FREE and keep checking for new episodes as some videos may be UNLISTED.
