Muslim women are caught in the crossfire between bigots on both sides

Whether it's sexism from within or religious hatred from without, Muslim women in the UK are fighting prejudice on multiple fronts

Muslim women have always experienced higher incidences of anti-Muslim violence than men. This is confirmed by Tell Mama, the government-backed helpline which measures anti-Muslim violence, which states that 58% of incidents are experienced by women. Victims have ranged from a five-year-old girl who was run over, to an 89-year-old pensioner. Seventy-five per cent of perpetrators are male and 54% of all cases are linked to supporters of far-right groups, such as the British National party and English Defence League.

Supporters of organisations such as the EDL highlight their hatred of Islam by attacking Muslim women. And yet the EDL's mission statement asserts its belief in "equal rights for Muslim women" and opposes the denigration and oppression of women. This calculated yet hypocritical effort to focus on "oppressed" Muslim women who need saving has always been a key strategy of the far-right, anti-Islam counter-jihad movement.

From Pamela Geller's deceptive narrative on honour killings, to the BNP's distortion of Islamic theology, this focus serves a tactical purpose: recruit members to their cause, and cement the idea that Islam oppresses women – believed by 69% of the British public.
