Question

I'm not some weirdo. I need it for a paper.

Answer 1

try this

http://www.religioustolerance.org/fem_cirm.htm

http://www.meforum.org/article/1629

I made a research on FGM in the somali community in Australia ( although back a few years ago now) if it's of any relevance to your paper,email me.

Answer 2

Islam has no concept of female circumcision


While one finds a number of traditions from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, which clearly indicates that he ordered pagan males who converted to undergo circumcision, it is not stated anywhere that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, ordered any woman who entered Islam to undergo this practice.

It is common knowledge in Islam that if the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, had wanted female circumcision to be an integral aspect of religious practice in Islam the same way that male circumcision is, he would have said so clearly. Since he did not do so, we can safely assume it is not a prescribed ritual of Islam."

Therefore you will not find any website of the Middle East regarding this subject. You have to search for Africa.

Take care.

Answer 3

DEAR,
IT IS NOT A RELIGIOUS RULE AND WAS NEVER FOR FEMALES, AND ALL THE RUMORS ABOUT IT HAVE BEEN EXPOSED BY MOSLEM SCHOLARS AND IT IS ALMOST RARE NOW IN THE MAJORITY OF ISLAMIC SOCIETIES AFTER THE CLARIFICATION WE HAD FROM SCHOLARS
