Sudanese Christian Woman Being Mistreated By Jailers

Mark 13:13 “You will be hated by all because of My name, but the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.”

Matthew 24:10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other.

Meriam Ibrahim, the 26-year-old Christian woman sentenced to death for converting from Islam when she had never been a Muslim, is reportedly being mistreated by her captors in a Sudanese jail.

Ibrahim’s husband, U.S. citizen Daniel Wani, was able to see his wife for the first time since her capture and trial on Monday.

“She was shackled and her legs were very swollen,” Wani told members of a U.S. based advocacy group that is fighting for his wife’s release.  Wani said that the prison is keeping her shackled at all times and making no accommodations for her advanced pregnancy.

The courts are allowing the couple’s 18-month-old son to stay in the jail cell with his mother because they do not recognize Wani’s rights as the boy’s father.  The government says the boy is automatically Muslim and because Wani is a Christian he cannot have custody or parent the child.

Witnesses say that her brother who recently converted to Islam brought Ibrahim to the attention of the authorities.  The brother created a fake birth certificate for his sister that he used to claim she was born a Muslim.

  1. This is the highest form of Christian persecution using lies against UR own family members because their
    faith is different than yours. Where is the freedom to be what God wants U to be without prejudice?
