Because I am tired of my identity being erased. Because I can’t ever go back to Iran. Because I would be murdered for not wearing hijab. Because the Islamic Regime could imprison/ hang me for stating I don’t believe in Islam. /1 #Islamotrauama#LetUsTalk#ExMuslim
Because I was born into it and never given a choice. Because everyone assumes automatically that I still believe Islam is the only true path to heaven, and therefore believe I am half a man as preached by Islam. Because a man practically owns me/2 #Islamotraums#ExMuslim
if I don’t state openly and clearly that I am not a Muslim. Because I don’t feel safe. Because I deserve to feel safe. Because people like you enjoy erasing my experiences/ trauma as a born Muslim. Because Islam doesn’t give me a choice and I reclaim it./3 #ExMuslim#Islamotrauma
Because disobedience isn’t a sin. Because I am survivor and proud of it. Do you need more or is this enough? Because there’s a ton more where these came from./4 #Islamotrauma#LetUsTalk#ExMuslim
My favourite ExMuslim @YasMohammedxx has a message for you. Share your stories of #Islamotrauma for the world to see why our fear of Islam is rational and rooted in our subjugation, oppression and abuse. #LetUsTalk
As an #ExMuslim, I can never go back to Iran because the government could put me in jail indefinitely or hang me for the simply saying I don’t believe in Islam or God. There’s no going back on your religion in Iran. You’re born a Muslim, you die a Muslim. Literally. #Islamotrauma
I can’t dance or sing under the Islamic regime. I can’t be a judge or the president. I can’t get a divorce, except in extremely dire situations, and I can’t have 2 husbands but my husband can have 4 permanent wives and 99 temporary ones. #Islamotrauma
