When 46-year-old Rajab Ali, a transgender man, spent his life savings to build a mosque for his local community in Okara district of the Punjab province in Pakistan, he hoped it would bring goodwill and allow people to pray there without gender discrimination. Now that it is complete, however, his neighbors are harassing him for praying in it because he is transgender, known in Pakistan as Khawaja Sira (third gender), a community that has come under renewed attack in Pakistan.
It is a desperate attempt to show his humanity to people too busy following a book written by a pedophile. He brought this upon himself, but I cannot help but feel sorry for him.
I feel a deep sadness for him that he seeks acceptance in an enviroment that despises him, rather than finding a group that is happy to welcome him just for who he is
Crazy how being a pedophile is a sign of success nowadays, maybe I should give it a go to become someone important
I’m proud of him. People like him show genuine humility and faith, it is hard to write off for an even remotely reasonable person. The 20% of humanity that sucks will always suck, by the rest will see things like this and it will plant seeds in their minds. If they see enough, they will reject evil.
