Acid attacks against women  in Islam. But remember, Islam empowers women. Obama say:

"And I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear"

Now let me be clear: issues of women’s equality are by no means simply an issue for Islam. In Turkey, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Indonesia, we have seen Muslim-majority countries elect a woman to lead.

"Girls Doused with Acid by Family for Refusing to Marry," By Zee News, January 5, 2014 (thanks to The Religion of Peace)

Lahore: A man in Pakistan's Punjab province attacked his two young step-daughters with acid for refusing to marry men chosen by him, police said today.

Muhammad Aslam, a mason from Pattoki village, located 70 km from provincial capital Lahore, threw acid on his step-daughters Malaika, 19, and Javeria, 23, while they were asleep last night.

Both victims were brought to Jinnah Hospital in Lahore, where doctors described their condition as critical.

Police said Aslam often quarrelled with his step-daughters on the issue of their marriage. "He wanted to marry them with men of his choice," police official Bashir Ahmed said. 

Aslam had allegedly accepted money from a man in his neighbourhood after promising to marry one of the step-daughters to him. "When both girls refused the proposal, Aslam threw acid on them to teach them a lesson," Ahmed said. 

A case was registered against Aslam and police are conducting raids to arrest him.

The President of the United States:
From Obama's Muslim speech in Cairo:
So I have known Islam on three continents before coming to the region where it was first revealed. That experience guides my conviction that partnership between America and Islam must be based on what Islam is, not what it isn’t. And I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear.
