Ok there's this Muslim woman I know who is fighting a custody battle in NJ. Her case is weird and she claims to being strong armed in taking her 9 year old daughter away from her.
Ok this is how the story goes.
The woman and her husband had a divorce, she got custody. She had her for a while before falling sick and the kid was being taken care by the woman's brother and his wife. Over the period of her stay at her uncles, the uncle's wife, slapped her and the kid called 911 and the social workers took her away.
The father didn't care long before and had taken off anyway.
Now the kid has been given into a Christian family and the mother's protesting that she wants her back. The Christian family has also made it clear that they will raise her up as a Christian.
Now the obvious argument against her is going to be that she gave her child away to someone who hurt the girl and thus when they take the kid away from the uncle, the kid is basically taken away from the mother too.
I've been asked to help out from a Muslim activist who is mediating in between, in somehow bringing the media in light with this "injustice". So far I've just asked for more information since I know religious appeals aren't going to fly in a US court.
I've also asked about what sort of person the mother is and that whether or not if she is still sick. I know for a fact if there's the slightest bit wrong found with the mother's case the media won't really support her. It's best not seen as a "Muslim cause".
Her second argument that brings in this "Muslim cause" issue is that, if you MUST take her away from her or her relatives then send her to a Muslim home. I believe people here once told me the parent does get rights for religious indoctrination of their children in the US.
So what do you think guys? Will her argument fly?
The woman claims to have never formally given away custody.
