I had posted this in the wrong forum this morning, I'm sorry...

Rimsha Masih

Was praying this morning for this beautiful 11 year old Christian girl in Pakistan that faces execution for burning pages from an Islamic teaching book.

I felt the need to post and ask every person on RFTH to pray today for this precious child of God; to be released from jail to her family and for protection from the mobs that will want to kill her if she ever gets released. These mobs earlier in the year dragged out a mentally ill Muslim man and burned him alive for burning the Koran... please pray for this precious beautiful child.

Her name is Rimsha Masih and if you want to see her picture to help put a face to the name while praying; she is on Fox News website under the World headlines. Thank you for taking time today to pray for this little girl, my heart grieves for her and her family.

Lord send your Angels to this precious child of God; to be released from jail to her family for protection from the mobs that want to kill her. Help her to get to a safe place with her parents where she will be far from any harm.

Lord nothing is impossible for you, therefore, I pray spare this child, and give her back to her parents care. In Jesus name I pray. Amen!

"Fair Use for Information & Discussion Purposes"

By Aisha Chowdhry

ISLAMABAD | Sun Sep 2, 2012 2:28am EDT

(Reuters) - Pakistani authorities have arrested a Muslim cleric on
allegations of framing a Christian girl who was arrested under the
country's controversial anti-blasphemy law, a police official said on
Sunday.

Religious and secular groups worldwide have protested over the detention
in August of Rimsha Masih, accused by Muslim neighbors of burning
Islamic religious texts.

Police official Munir Hussain Jafri said a cleric was arrested after
witnesses from Masih's village on the edge of the capital Islamabad
complained about his alleged actions.

"Witnesses complained that he had torn pages from a Koran and placed
them in her bag which had burned papers," Jafri told Reuters.

A bail hearing will be held on Monday for Masih, whose case has
re-focused a spotlight on Pakistan's anti-blasphemy law.

Under the law, anyone who speaks ill of Islam and the Prophet Mohammad
commits a crime and faces the death penalty.

Activists and human rights groups say vague terminology has led to its
misuse, and that the law dangerously discriminates against the Muslim
country's tiny minority groups.

Critics of Pakistan's leaders say they are too worried about an
extremist backlash to speak out against the law in a nation where
religious conservatism is increasingly prevalent.

Convictions are common, although the death sentence has never been
carried out. Most convictions are thrown out on appeal, but mobs have
killed many people accused of blasphemy.

There have been conflicting reports about Masih's age and her mental
state. Some media have said she is 11 and suffers from Down's Syndrome.

A hospital said in a report she was about 4 but had the mental
capacities of someone younger, and was uneducated.

Masih's arrest triggered an exodus of several hundred Christians from
her poor village after mosques reported over their loudspeakers what the
girl was alleged to have done.

Christians, who make up four percent of Pakistan's population of 180
million, have been especially concerned about the blasphemy law, saying
it offers them no protection.

Convictions hinge on witness testimony and are often linked to
vendettas, they complain.

In 2009, 40 houses and a church were set ablaze by a mob of 1,000
Muslims in the town of Gojra, in Punjab province. At least seven
Christians were burned to death. The attacks were triggered by reports
of the desecration of the Koran.

Two Christian brothers accused of writing a blasphemous letter against
the Prophet Mohammad were gunned down outside a court in the eastern
city of Faisalabad in July of 2010.
