A pregnant Pakistani woman with three daughters had a nail hammered into her head by a faith healer who said it would guarantee she gave birth to a boy. The woman’s husband allegedly threatened to leave her if she had another girl.
al-Arabiya (h/t Marvin)Exploitative faith healers, whose practices are rooted in mystic Sufi lore, proliferate across Muslim-majority Pakistan, where a son is believed to offer better financial security to parents than daughters.
The woman arrived at a hospital in the northwestern city of Peshawar after trying to extract the nail herself with pliers, doctor Haider Khan told AFP. “She was fully conscious, but was in immense pain,” said Khan, who removed the spike. An X-ray showed the five-centimeter (two-inch) nail had pierced the top of the woman’s forehead but missed her brain. Khan said a hammer or other heavy object was used to knock it in.
The woman initially told hospital staff she had hammered the nail into her head herself on the advice of the faith healer, before later saying he had carried out the act. Peshawar police are trying to track down the woman in order to question her. “We have collected the CCTV footage from the hospital and hope to reach the woman soon,” city police chief Abbas Ahsan told AFP.
As it turns out, this woman is pregnant with another girl.
Dr Haider Suleman, the resident neurosurgeon told Dawn “that a woman in her locality did the same [hammered a nail] and gave birth to a boy even though the ultrasound had shown her unborn child to be a girl.”
The next time a Muslim tells you that every word in the Quran is a fact, show him this.

One can only assume that this has “worked” once. Since that blessed event these inbred throwbacks have embraced it as fact. What a world.
censusdesignatedplace says
But was it a halal nail?

It would’ve been faster with a nail gun..

I was living in the area when that happened.
Hartmut says
I am just waiting to see the first pregnant females here in the streets having a nail run into their forehead ……

Muslums do all kinds of wierd shit. Even college educated ones.
An example: burning themselves or pulling hair & ears to dispel sickness.
The list is endless.

islamic logic versus common sense logic.. What a surprise… Im shocked… Say it aint so… Joe…Inshalla.

Very scientific, these pisslamists. I always believed that a baby boy was born when the father’s sperm implanted a Y chromosome into the mother’s egg.
Guess I will have to stand corrected. Especially if Dr. Suleman is correct and the baby girl she’s carrying turns into a boy after the nail was hammered into her noggin.
allanivarsson says
I wonder if the Muslims checked their Qur’an first to see if it recommends a nail in the head to have a boy.
No such passage than the idiot male is not a true Muslim.
If all Muslims want boys instead of girls, where do they think they will find women? Use a transvestite? Or become Gay? No wonder so many are desperate to invade the West.
David says
You would expect less of a cult that advocates drinking camel piss, praying to Allah to bring rain and think you can determine the sex of an unborn by hammering a nail into one’s head! Had Mohammed been Jim Jones think of how many millions would have drunk the kool Aid.
Reader says
I bet the public school teachers don’t teach this during “Islamic Heritage month”.
VMS says
That sure sounds like attempted murder to me. That woman is extremely lucky that the nail did not hit a vital neural area or a blood vessel.
These barbaric Muslims sink a little deeper into the cesspool every day.
And I thought that neurosurgeons were among the most educated physicians. Here, this Muslim one believes that a nail through the head can change a baby’s sex. What happened is another ignorant doctor completely misread the ultrasound.

The Bible is the complete opposite of the Quran.
God is PRECIOUS and WONDERFUL beyond words to express!
Jewish Prayer/Praise:
Hallowed and honoured, extolled and exalted, adored and acclaimed be
the Name of the Blessed Holy One, whose glory is above all the praises, hymns and songs of adoration which human beings can utter.
The Bible, the Eternal Word of the Living God, is
SCIENTIFICALLY ACCURATE.

Is There a God?
Does God exist? Here are six straightforward reasons to believe that God is really there.
#1: The complexity of our planet points to a deliberate Designer who not only created our universe, but sustains it today.
Many examples showing God’s design could be given, possibly with no end. But here are a few:
The Earth…its size is perfect. The Earth’s size and corresponding gravity holds a thin layer of mostly nitrogen and oxygen gases, only extending about 50 miles above the Earth’s surface.
If Earth were smaller, an atmosphere would be impossible, like the planet Mercury. If Earth were larger, its atmosphere would contain free hydrogen, like Jupiter
.3 Earth is the only known planet equipped with an atmosphere of the right mixture of gases to sustain plant, animal and human life.

Thank you Linda I will pass your evidence forward to Science who have proven that your ideas are wrong. Enjoy your Wishlist dream.
You obviously have not studied Cosmology & Prehistory & Evolution & Chaos Process.

Ludicrous.

Thank you Ziggysue.

God’s requirement for ALL humanity is KINDNESS:
Bible, Micah 6:8
He has told you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God.
The HOLY ONE, our Glorious, Awesome, Majestic Creator is KIND, MERCIFUL COMPASSIONATE and COMPLETELY GOOD.
Throughout the Bible, God calls men and women, boys and girls to repentance.
I owe God my life. Everything that I have. I stand in awe of such
Amazing Love,
Amazing Grace – Best Version By Far!
BLR says
the father needs to change his diet in he wants a boy , lay off all that halal yogurt eat some bully beef or drive a nail in his own head straiten out that tool hes using
Ghulam says
From what I know of these backward cultures, all this fuss about having a boy has plenty to do with a man’s own lack of virility. Blaming the woman for your impotency is standard behavior in third-world countries.
But it has indeed nothing to do with women. The fact is most men will become useless in that department after a certain age. You could have Katy Perry give me a lap dance but that wouldn’t help me because of my inner medical condition and advancing age.
It’s important to accept these things gracefully and move on.
Siddi Nasrani says
Will some truthful Doctor tell these through backs that is the male sperm that decides
what sex a baby will be. NOT the mother.
BareNakedIslam says
One would think. But I guess that would hurt their feelings.
allanivarsson says
LOL
Ghulam says
Had it been my ex-wife (who’s Pakistani), I doubt it that a few nails to her really thick head would damage anything of value inside.
😁
PRO-Tip to any would-be fathers: if you want a son, “Missionary Position” is the best.*

allanivarsson says
Ghulam, “Missionary Position” is the best? LOL Any position no guarantee for a son. Male biology decides.
Ghulam says

At least not as dangerous as hammering nails through a woman’s skull. That was the whole point; the message is intended for my tribesmen who lurk around these pages.
You wouldn’t believe some of the actual people I know back in Pakistan or India: they’re indeed very likely to get ideas from this whole hammering business. And that’s not a joke. Appealing to reasoning and science doesn’t work with them.
Regards
G.

Ghulam, LOL.

missionary,Christian or even Latterday saint. not for moslems

A man is in court. The Judge says,”on the 3rd August you are accused of killing your wife by beating her to death with a hammer, how do you plead?”
“Guilty”, said the man in the dock. At this point a man at the back of the court stood up and shouted “You dirty rat!” The Judge asked the man to site down and to refrain from making any noise.
The Judge continued “….. and that also on the 17th September you are accused of killing your son by beating him to death with a hammer, how do you plead”? “Guilty”, said the man in the dock.
Again the same man at the back stood up and shouted even louder, “You dirty rotten stinking rat”!! At this point the Judge called the man to the bench and said, “I have already asked you to be quiet, if you continue with these outbursts, I will have to charge you with contempt of court. I can understand your feelings, but what relationship have you to this man?” He replied “He is my next door neighbor”. The Judge replied, “I can understand your feelings then, but you must refrain from any comments”. The man replied “NO, your Honor, you don’t understand. Twice I have asked if I could borrow a hammer, and BOTH TIMES he said he didn’t have one”!!!
BareNakedIslam says
LOL! Good one.
allanivarsson says
Dan LOL. It seems like in Pakistan owning a nail & hammer is mandatory.
