Manama: A Salafist lawmaker denounced the calling of a society to promote the establishment of clinics to enhance awareness on sex education and contraception methods to unmarried youth.
MP Jassim Al Saidi told Gulf News on Wednesday that such clinics were against Islamic regulations and could promote sinful relations, despite their aims to prevent sexual transmitted diseases among youth.
The President of Bahrain Youth Forum Fatima Ali published a statement in local newspaper in the first week of July, 2008, discussing a paper she presented at a gathering in Tunisia that called for the establishment of the clinics.
“Such statements shouldn’t be made as they are calling upon youth to be engaged in sexual relations outside the marriage-lock and defend such demands as ways to prevent diseases, while youth societies should promote the adults of the future to protect the Islamic principle to stay clean and healthy,” he explained.
