" This is not hadith sahih or sahih hadith whatever you want to call it!!!! In Jordan there is NO FGM even in the most religious groups.

So our dear Susan al-doktora al-kabeera who ain't Shiekh al-Azhar tells us that the makrouma hadith where Muhammad said that female genital mutilation is makrouma is not hadith sahih or a correct hadith (i wonder how did she know). But Sheikh al-Azhar tells us otherwise. So which one should we believe you? or him? And what is your answer?
